Sažetak
From the discovery of zeolites until today, the interest in scientific research and use of this amazing, interesting, and useful material has continuously grown.Natural zeolites are hydrated aluminosilicate materials. Unlike natural zeolites which are formed as crystals in cavities of basalt rocks or as volcanic tuff in different geological environments at relatively low temperatures, synthetic zeolites are created by hydrothermal synthesis in laboratory conditions.Zeolites have found application in almost all areas of agriculture and animal husbandry, biotechnology, medicine, chemical industry, construction industry, oil and natural gas industry, water processing, etc., as well as new technologies which contribute to sustainable development.The application of zeolites in technologies that can contribute to the reduction of CO2 emissions (one of the greenhouse gases which contributes to climate change) could have a significant role in their future use.
