High Removal Efficiency of Diatomite-Based X Zeolite for Cu<sup>2+</sup> and Zn<sup>2+</sup>

Diatomite-based X zeolite was obtained and its crystallinity, morphology, and interface properties were investigated by XRD, BET, SEM, EDS, and XRF. The obtained X zeolite possessed a unique meso-microporous structure and showed good ion exchange properties for Cu<sup>2+</sup> and Zn<...
