Environmental Remediation
Natural zeolites can be used as ion exchangers for removal of radioactive and heavy metal cations, making St. Cloud Zeolite a valuable tool in nuclear, mining, and hazardous waste cleanup.
Environmental Benefits of Zeolites
St. Cloud Zeolites are natural, inert non-toxic substances that are federally classified as GRAS (generally regarded as safe) and exempted from most regulations and reporting.
In addition to being used in a wide variety of commercial applications, St. Cloud Zeolite has been a useful tool in many environmental remediation and water treatment projects, including the treatment of radioactive waste associated with the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident in 2011.
