The small numbers of manganese particles have been noticed in the acidactivated samples. 14% of decrement and 61.02% of increment of aluminates have been found respectively
elements O, Si and C in nanobentonite. In addition, the activation process of bentoni te using HCl solution activates elements of F and Mg. Bentonite is divided into several types, Nabentonite and Cabentonite [12]. If the sodium content is more dominant, the bentonite is Nabentonite, and vice versa.
adsorption process and the need for the change in the texture of the separation layer that controls the performance of the resultant membrane sodium or potassium bentonite [61, 62]. The smectite group such as montmorillonite (MMT) is the most dominant mineral in bentonite, representing up to 7080% by weight, while other minerals
It is the main active ingredient of fuller’s earth, probably one of the earliest industrial cleaning agents. Calcium bentonite may be converted to sodium bentonite (termed sodium beneficiation or sodium activation) to exhibit many of sodium bentonites’ properties by an ion exchange process. It is also known as potash bentonite or K
Clay activation is a process to increase the clay character to obtain the desired properties in accordance with its use. Physical The effect of sodium ion (Na +) acid activation of bentonite with HCl resulted in the improved porosity of the material, with a BET specific surface area of 65.89 m 2 /g and 50.93 m 2 /g for the modified and
The presence of emerging pollutants such as hazardous chemicals, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, and endocrinedisrupting chemicals in water sources is a serious concern to the environment and human health. Thus, this study focused on exploring the interaction mechanisms between ciprofloxacin (CIP) (antibiotic) and clay (a lowcost
The acid activation of natural bentonite was performed by treatment with hydrochloric acid at different concentrations. modified bentonite was obtained by mixing AlCl 3 solution (0.2 mol/L) with sodium hydroxide FagundesKlenc MR, Bergamasco R, Marquetotti Salcedo VA. Hybrid treatment of coagulation/ flocculation process followed by

UCC of Ca Bentonite 43.16 KPa and that of Na Bentonite is 29.3 KPa.After an initial increase ,UCC value for all the samples were observed to be consistently reducing .
The deposits are quite large and few meters deep. The process flow of manufacturing covers ore mining, sodium activation, drying, and milling. The sodium activation converts the calcium bentonite to the swelling type sodium bentonite. The moisture is reduced through drying process performed under controlled temperature. Importance of Bentonite
Calcium bentonite may be converted to sodium bentonite (termed sodium beneficiation or sodium activation) to exhibit many of sodium bentonite's properties by a process known as "ion exchange. In common
Sodium Bentonite. Sodium bentonite expands when wet, absorbing as much as several times its dry mass in water. Calcium bentonite may be converted to sodium bentonite (termed sodium beneficiation or sodium activation) to exhibit many of sodium bentonite’s properties by an ion exchange process. Some properties, such as viscosity and fluid
The increase in particle size is attributed to two mechanisms, the aggregation that took place at the beginning of the chemical treatment and the later swelling due to the expansion of bentonite platelet because of sodium activation. The swelling process is a kinetically controlled process that depends on time, temperature, and
sodium carbonate [4,5]. The sodium activation involved addition of 2–2.5 wt.% Na2CO3 to Carich bentonite in diluted aqueous slurry, followed by washing and drying. Later the process was modified to avoid the costly and timeconsuming drying step. To this end, dry Na2CO3 was added to bentonite rich in Casmectite wetted with water in
Evaluation of the sodium activation: the activation process was evaluated according to the influence over the properties of swelling and cation exchange capacity (CEC). The swelling index was determined according to Foster’s method, which consisted of the slow disposal of 1 g of bentonite sample into a beaker filled with 100 mL of distilled

Bentonite is divided into several types, Nabentonite and Cabentonite [12]. If the sodium content is more dominant, the bentonite is Nabentonite, and vice versa.
An upgraded Cabentonite was produced using a combined thermochemical treatment in a wet process by adding 4 wt % of soda ash (Na 2 CO 3) while heating and stirring. The new thermal treatment optimized and described in this study greatly improved the sodium activation and ions exchange process and improved bentonite
The presence of emerging pollutants such as hazardous chemicals, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, and endocrinedisrupting chemicals in water sources is a serious concern to the environment and human health. Thus, this study focused on exploring the interaction mechanisms between ciprofloxacin (CIP) (antibiotic) and clay (a lowcost
In the bentonite industry, the most common procedure for quality control of the ore and the sodium activation process is the swelling method. However, this tool is restricted only to the differentiation of the sodium and nonsodium types, not considering the other cationic varieties. The objective of this study was to establish parameters for

Bentonite production process features ore mining, sodium activation (if required), drying, milling, classifying, pelleting, etc. Grinding and drying are key steps. Bentonite mining process Bentonite is surfaced mined through a process called backcasting where reclamation is performed by filling the mining pits with soils from subsequent pits
