High feed rates of NPN result in the generation of large amounts of ammonia that are adsorbed into the blood and create a change in the acid-base balance of the blood. Studies have shown that clinoptilolite added to the feed of young animals improved their growth rate by stimulating their appetites and decreasing the incidence of diarrhea. The animals on the Clinoptilolite supplemented diets gained 20% more weight on average than those in the control diet. Although the test animals consumed more feed, the feeding costs per kilogram weight gained were significantly less than the control group.
Clinoptilolite is the new ideal filter medium for swimming pools in replacement of sand. Clinoptilolite has many advantages over sand due to its high porosity, durability and cation exchange capacity. Clinoptilolite can remove contaminants such as dissolved ammonia that sand and DE filters simply cannot handle.
Natural Clinoptilolite based fertilizers are known to be â??intelligent fertilizersâ?? due to their high cation exchange capacity and porosity. Recall, Clinoptilolite is the worlds only negatively-charged mineral in existence, it therefore has tremendous breakthrough possibilities and especially in Agriculture applications. Clinoptilolite has a proven ability of a natural slow release mechanism of nutrients to the root zone of new seedling thereby increasing the plantsâ?? strength and performance.
Clinoptilolite has a high selectivity and capacity for ammonium via cation exchange capacity (CEC). Once the ammonium ion is within the Clinoptilolite lattice, it is not water-soluble. When used as an ion-exchange filter medium the Clinoptilolite can reduce ammonium content of circulating freshwater from aquaculture systems by as much as 97%. Clinoptilolite provides a unique and simple way of removing algae buildup in your fresh water aquariums. Clinoptilolite does this by absorbing the Ammonia in the water that the algae feed on; collecting the algae that is then attracted to the unique Clinoptilolite rocks; and providing an easy method for removing the algae from your aquarium.
Natural Zeolites, like Clinoptilolite redound to a cleaner, confident environment in a great number of applications. In fact nearly every application of natural zeolites has been driven by environmental concerns and plays a significant role in reducing toxic waste. It has a natural negative charge which gives it the capacity to adsorb cations and some organic contaminants. Zeolites are highly selective absorber of a variety of metal cations that can be removed from liquid effluents through the process of ion-exchange. Natural zeolites are excellent ion exchangers for the removal and recovery of heavy metal cations from drinking and waste-waters. Ammonia is a major issue for the treatment of municipal wastewater. This remarkable mineral has a huge capacity for adsorbing ammonia.
