Zeolites are hydrated alumino-silicate minerals containing aluminium, silicon and oxygen in their regular framework. They form in nature as a result of a chemical reaction between volcanic lava and saline water.  Zeolites act as molecular sieves, or filtering agents, that attract and trap positively charged atoms, ions and compounds, and can therefore remove them from a system. There are more than 50 natural and 150 synthetic types of zeolites. Natural clinoptilolite is the most widely used type due to its high absorption rate, cation exchange, catalysis and dehydration capacities. It can be utilised as a chemical sieve, feed and food additive, soil conditioner as well as liquid, gas and odour absorber. Suitability for such applications is due to its large amount of pore spaces, a high resistance to extreme temperatures, and chemically neutral basic structure.

Bentonite is an absorbent aluminium phyllosilicate generally impure clay consisting mostly of montmorillonite, (Na, Ca)0.33(Al, Mg)2Si4O10(OH)2·(H2O)n.

Three types of bentonite:

• Natural Calcium Bentonite or Calcium Montmorillonite
• Natural Sodium Bentonite or Sodium Montmorillonite
• Sodium Activated Bentonites or Sodium Activated Montmorillonites

Bentonite minerals occur as lenses or seams containing up to 50% moisture. They are rocklike in nature and usually extracted by opencast mining (quarrying).

Natural sodium bentonite as the name suggests occurs with sodium as the predominant exchange cation. The name originates from its discovery near Fort Benton, USA. Sodium bentonites are characterized by high swelling, high liquid limit and high thermal durability.
The vast majority of the montmorillonites occurring in abundance world wide are of the calcium type and referred to as calcium bentonites. The name montmorillonite originates from a discovery made at Montmorillon in France. Calcium bentonites are often characterized by much lower swelling and liquid limit values compared to natural sodium bentonite.
Sodium activated bentonites are produced by the substitution of calcium ions by sodium ions. This transformation can be achieved by the addition of a soluble sodium salt to calcium bentonite.

Chemical Formula: Al2O34SiO2H2O

Chemical Name: Naturally occurring hydrated aluminum silicate

Typical Applications :Used as a foundry sand, paints, fuller's earth, drilling mud, bleaching clay, filtering agents, water impedance, inks, additive to ceramic materials, and iron ore pelletizing Pharmaceuticals, beverage, food, cosmetics, and personal care products (Suspending agent, gellant and binder)
Bentonite possesses thixotropic properties and deposits a thin water proofing film on the walls of the bore holes & thus renders permeable formations impermeable.

Both natural & synthetic Bentonite are used in preparation of drilling muds. It is mainly used as circulation mud in rotary system of drilling for oil. The main purpose of Bentonite is to lubricate & cool the rotary cutting bits, carry away rock cutting fragments & to act as a seal against the escape of gas from the bore hole & to improve & prevent the hole from blowing out. Another function of such Bentonite based fluids is to condition the wall of the drill hole to prevent caving.

These are below industries mainly Use Bentonite :

• Agriculture and Animal Feeds
• Asphalt Emulsifiers
• Ceramics
• Construction and Civil Engineering
• Detergents
• Environmental Sealants
• Horizontal Drilling
• Household Cleaners
• Industrial Coatings
• Iron Ore Pelletizing
• Metal Casting
• Oils/Food Processing
• Oil and Gas Drilling
• Paints, Dyes and Polishes
• Papermaking and Paper Recycling
• Pet Products
• Pharmaceuticals, Cosmetics and Medicine
• Wastewater Treatment

Baryte or barite is a mineral consisting of barium sulfate. The baryte group consists of baryte, celestine, anglesite and anhydrite. Baryte is generally white or colorless, and is the main source of barium. Baryte and celestine form a solid solution SO.

Its main application : includes in Oil and Gas Drilling, In Oxygen and sulphur isotopic analysis and is also is used in added-value applications which include filler in paint and plastics, sound reduction in engine compartments, coat of automobile finishes for smoothness and corrosion resistance, friction products for automobiles and trucks, radiation-shielding cement, glass ceramics and medical applications.

Kaolinite is a clay mineral, part of the group of industrial minerals, with the chemical composition AlSiO. It is a layered silicate mineral, with one tetrahedral sheet of silica linked through oxygen atoms to one octahedral sheet of alumina octahedra. Rocks that are rich in kaolinite are known as kaolin or china clay. Kaolin, also called china clay, soft white clay that is an essential ingredient in the manufacture of china and porcelain and is widely used in the making of paper, rubber, paint, cosmetics, ceramics and many other products.
