Zeolite was discovered by the Swiss mineralogist Frederich Cronstet in 1756.

This mineral whose word meaning is boiling stone, is called aqueous alumino silicates. Structurally it has a 3 structured header bond. Today usage area of Zeolite is quite large. Although it is generally used in agricultural fields, it is used as raw material in detergent industry and many other fields. Also it is known to be used frequently in chimney cleaning, oil spill cleaning, oxygen production and other energy fields. In addition to these, the areas of use in the construction sector are undeniably high. The fact that zeolite has such a wide usage area is due to its various features in its structure and the benefits it provides are quite high.
