CHEMICAL AMELIORATION OF POLLUTED SOIL
Natural zeolite is capable to adsorb chemical compounds, heavy metals, radionuclides and and organic substances, and this capacity determines it use for chemical amelioration and detoxication of polluted soils as well as neutralization of radioactive contamination.
In such cases natural zeolite rates may be increased up to 40 to 60 tons per hectare.
Depending on the level and nature of pollution it is necessary in each particular case to determine natural zeolite rate.
