This book provides a comprehensive introduction to zeolite science. Synthetic zeolites are important major catalysts in the oil industry, they are also important in the separation of gases from the air, in the treatment of nuclear wastes and as a component in detergents. In addition they are natural minerals with a unique role in mineralogy and occurences throughout the world. The book assesses the importance of zeolites in all these applications.
