Adsorption Process of Ammonium by Natural Zeolite (Clinoptilolite) from Aqueous Solution for Aquaculture Application
Abstract
Ammonia is an important nutrient in primary production, but high ammonia
concentration is directly or indirectly toxic to many species of aquatic organisms.
Ammonia and other toxic metabolites can be managed by adsorption and ion
exchange. Zeolite is naturally occurring structured, aluminosilicate with high
cation exchange and ion adsorption capacity. The purpose of this study was to
determine the effects of zeolite on the ammonium adsorption at different particle
sizes (0.075 mm, 3-5 mm) and adsorbent dosages (5 g/l, 10 g/l, 15 g/l) from
aquatic solution. This research was conducted by trial groups with 3 repetitions
during 330 min. Water temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen and ammonium values
were measured during the trial period at regular intervals. Depending on the
relevant literature, TAN (Total Ammonium Nitrogen) and adsorption efficiency
were also calculated. This study values showed a decrease of TAN concentration
in all the groups with increasing contact time. For different particle size and
adsorbent dosage of zeolite, the best efficiency (44.1%) is determined at added 15
g/l and 0.075 mm zeolite group (P˂0.05). Our results revealed that zeolite might
be used for ammonia removal in aquaculture.

Abstract
Amonyak, birincil üretimde önemli bir besin maddesidir, ancak yüksek amonyak konsantrasyonu, birçok sucul organizma
türüne doğrudan veya dolaylı olarak toksiktir. Amonyak ve diğer toksik metabolitler adsorpsiyon ve iyon değişimi ile yönetilebilir.
Zeolit doğal olarak oluşan, yüksek katyon değişimi ve iyon adsorpsiyon kapasitesine sahip bir alüminosilikattır. Bu çalışmanın
amacı, farklı partikül büyüklüğü (0,075 mm, 3-5 mm) ve adsorbant miktarına (5 g/l, 10 g/l, 15 g/l) bağlı olarak zeolit ile sucul
ortamdan amonyum adsorpsiyonunun sağlanmasıdır. Araştırma, 3 tekerrürlü deneme grupları üzerinden 330 dakika boyunca
yürütülmüştür. Deneme süresi boyunca, düzenli aralıklarla su sıcaklığı, pH, çözünmüş oksijen ve amonyum değerleri ölçülmüş,
TAN (Toplam Amonyum Azotu) ve adsorpsiyon verimi ilgili literatüre bağlı olarak hesaplanmıştır. Çalışma değerleri artan temas
süresi ile tüm gruplarda TAN konsantrasyonunun azaldığını göstermiştir. Zeolitin farklı partikül büyüklüğü ve adsorbant miktarı
için en iyi verim (% 44,1) 15 g/l ve 0,075 mm zeolit grubunda belirlenmiştir (P˂0,05). Sonuç olarak, zeolitin su ürünleri
yetiştiriciliğinde amonyak giderimi için kullanılabileceği belirlenmiştir.
