The Olives of Zeolite – A lecture by N. Lygeros in Makri, Alexandroupoli Source: Project of Humanity Official Channel N. Lygeros

MARINA Slim Filter Bio-Clear Cartridge with Zeolite The Slim Filter Bio-Clear replacement cartridge fits all three Slim Filter models. Ideal for goldfish, it combines zeolite and Ceramitek in a single cartridge to ensure a healthy aquarium. The zeolite effectively adsorbs toxic ammonia and reduces stress on fish, whilst the Ceramitek – a highly porous ceramic biological filter medium – optimises biological filtration. The easy-to-use disposable cartridge should be replaced every two weeks. (Never replace all filter cartridges at the same time to ensure the constant presence of beneficial bacteria.)

Postgraduate Thesis – Author: Efthymiu, Maria Konstantinou; Supervisor: Dotas, Dimitrios, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, School of Agriculture, 2010. The aim of this research project was to investigate the effect of adding natural zeolite to the diet on the productive traits and characteristics of eggs laid by laying hens.The experimental group consisted of 96 Isa Brown laying hens, aged 28 weeks and with an average body weight of 1,870 g at the start of the experiment. The hens were housed in cage batteries in a controlled environment and allocated to four dietary treatments (M, Z1, Z2 and Z3), in accordance with ... Read more

PhD Thesis – Author: Dionysiou, Ourania-Nina S., Supervisor: Misopolinos, Nikolaos, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, School of Agriculture, 2010. This study investigated certain conditions that influence the adsorption of B and P on surface-modified natural zeolite (clinoptilolite), with hexadecyl-trimethyl-ammonium bromide (C19H42BrN or HDTMA–Br), with a view to its use as a decontamination agent for irrigation water and aquatic systems. Specifically, the following were investigated: (a) the effect of washing the zeolite with HCl prior to its modification, and (b) the effect of increasing the pH on the adsorption of B by the zeolite. Subsequently, the following were investigated: c) the effect ... Read more

As part of our efforts to raise awareness in our region about natural zeolite, our company is organising an information session on Sunday 19 April at 7.30 pm at Cafe Station, in Lepti, Nea Orestiada, an information session on the topic: ‘zeolite is changing the lives of farmers and livestock breeders’ Topics to be discussed: What is zeolite, what properties does it have, what are its applications, how is it used in agriculture, is it compatible with the use of fertilisers, and how is it applied in livestock farming? Is it compatible with organic farming methods? Can it be used ... Read more

Doctoral thesis, Author: Tzamos, Evangelos Ioannis, Supervisor: Filippidis, A., Professor, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, School of Sciences, Department of Geology. The zeolite-bearing volcanic clastic sediments of Southern Xerovouni (Avdella, Evros Prefecture) contain, on average, 57% by weight of HEU-type zeolite, 6% by weight of smectite, 3% by weight of marmatite (a total of 66% by weight of microporous minerals), 19% by weight of astrios, 10% by weight of cristobalite and 5% by weight of quartz (a total of 34% non-microporous minerals). The chemical composition of these sediments is: 69.9% by weight SiO₂, 13.2% by weight Al₂O₃, 1.2% by weight Fe₂O₃, ... Read more

Doctoral thesis Author Pourliotis, Konstantinos D., Supervisor: Karatzias, Charilaos, Professor, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, School of Veterinary Medicine. Subject The aim of this experimental study is to investigate the effect of adding clinoptilolite to the feed on the absorption of E.coli on the health and performance of suckling calves. A total of 84 newborn Holstein calves were used; these were examined prior to the start of the experiment and found to be healthy. The animals were divided into three equally sized, homogeneous groups (groups A, B and C). Group C served as the control group, whilst groups A and B ... Read more

Doctoral thesis. Author: Dedousi, Anna S.P.H. Supervisor: Tserveni-Gousi, Angeliki, Prof. Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, School of Geotechnical Sciences, Department of Veterinary Medicine, 2009. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of natural clinoptilolite zeolite on the reproductive characteristics of the ostrich and on the performance of growing birds. To achieve this objective, a total of three consecutive experiments were carried out at two ostrich farms. The aim of the first experiment was to investigate, at farm level, whether the addition of a natural zeolite, clinoptilolite, to the diet of breeding ostriches has any effect on their reproductive ...

Doctoral Thesis THOMA A. KOTSOPOULOU, Graduate in Agricultural Science, Graduate in Civil Engineering, MSc, IKY Scholarship Holder SUPERVISOR: Prof. Gerasimos Martzopoulos This study investigated the effect of adding different quantities of natural zeolite on the anaerobic degradation of pig farm effluent. In particular, the effect of adding zeolite on increasing the energy yield of the effluent (greater quantity of methane, energy yield over a short period of time) was examined. Furthermore, the impact of introducing zeolite on the reduction of solids, volatile solids and BOD5 (environmental factors) was investigated. Two preliminary measurements were carried out, which served as a guide ... Read more
