Synthesis of zeolite-P from coal fly ash derivative and its utilisation in mine-water remediation

Solid residues resulting from the active treatment of acid mine drainage with coal fly ash were successfully converted to zeolite-P under mild hydrothermal treatment conditions. Scanning electron microscopy showed that the zeolite-P product was highly crystalline. The product had a high cation ex...
