Vermiculite is one of the technical mineral absorbents widely applied in industrial emissions treatment technologies.Its absorption-active properties are noteworthy.
There are various applications of vermiculite materials in chemical technologies and equipment. Laboratory tests and analyseshave verifiedtheir ability to purify industrial wastewaters in ferrous and non-ferrous processing plants. Exfoliated vermiculite is also widely utilized in purification and drying of gases and organic liquids, in industrial wastewater treatment and leaching of valuable components, including petroleum products, and etc.
In metallurgy, vermiculite is used as an insulator for reducing heat losses in metal casting and mechanical working.
