Synthesis of Zeolite A for Adsorption Studies of Methylene Blue : 9783659582813 : 25 Nov 2014 : Synthesis, characterization and intercalation of Zeolite A from Nigerian Ahoko kaolin for adsorption studies of Methylene blue (MB)were studied. The Zeolite A was synthesized from Nigerian Ahoko kaolin (NAK) using hydrothermal technique and was intercalated by hexamethyltetraamine (HMTA). The synthesized zeolite A (SZA) and intercalated zeolite A (IZA) were characterized using X- Ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Braunauer Emmet Teller (BET) and Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) analyses.The XRD reveal zeolite A peaks including several peaks depicting presence of minerals like quartz, mica, calcium and iron.The surface area of SZA and IZA were found to be 21.11m2/g and 21.47m2/g, respectively based on BET analysis. The effects of initial concentration, adsorbent dosage, pH and temperature with contact time were studied for SZA and IZA to examine their p
