ABSTRACT
Samples from natural zeolite deposit in Cikancra village, T asikmalaya, West Java were investigated for its m ~inproperties. Chemical canposition was analyzed by X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) and Atcmic Absorption Spectrome try(MS) methods. Mineralogical analyses were carried out using X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning ElectionMicroscopy (SEM) methods. Furthermore, continuous flow method was applied for cation exchange capacity (CE C)determination and TG-DTA (the~al gravimetry -dfferential the~al analysis) was carried out to see the therrlalbehaviour of the zedite.. Analysis results sh<7Ned that the chemical composition was dominated by silica and allBnilla,while other elements like sodum, iron, potassium and titanium were present in lesser amounts. The zedite type \\asidentified as mordenite and clinoptilolite. SEM photographs indicated crystals of mordenite in fibrous or needle fOIl nsand platy cfinoptilolite. Zedite Cikancra was also found to have a relatively high exChange capacity with a CEC value of143.58 meq/100g. Thermal analysis revealed that water vapor was released from zeolite at temperatures of BO.5 to148°C with a weight loss of 9.4%. Furthermore, crystal water was released at 481.8°C, which was indicated witt aweight loss of 4.3%. Based on those determined properties, Zedite Cikancra has the ability to be used for wastewatertreatment, agriculture or animal nutrient applications, drying and odorless.

INTRODUCTION
properties, zeolites have been utilised in agriculture,
environmental protectioo and industries, includng agIO-
industry.
Zeolites are found in many areas in Indonesia,
which is related to the volcanic activity in large pa.1s of
the country. At present there are forty-seven zeolite
mines ~ting in Indonesia.
Zeolites have cavities and channel structures
which can be occupied by water and exchangeable free
cation with certain molecular sizes. According to that
zeolite has the abiiity to be used as molecular sieves, ion
exchanger, absorbent and catalyst Based on these
In order to ~timse the use of zeolites, th~y
should be characterised physically and chemically to fir Kj
their ~ use.
Every zeolite deposit in Indonesia has uniq11e
characteristics of the properties. Variation can be fOUlld

Zeolite identification was carried out using X-ray
Diffractometer type Rint 2000, Rigaku with Cu-Ka 1; 40
kV, current of 30 mA and speed 4. per minute.
Scanning Electron Microscope type Jeol JSM-
T330A was used for mineral characterisation. Qualitative
chemical analysis has been conducted using X-ray
Fluorescence Spectrometer type Rix 2000, Rigaku, while
Atomic Absorption Spectrometer type Shimadzu was
being used for quantitative chemical analysis. Cation
exchange capacity (CEC) was measured by continue
flow method and TG-DTA was applied to analyse the
thermal properties of zeolites
chemical composition, crystal structure and thermal
property. All of them can inftuence the use of zeolites.
Physical and chemical characterisation of zeolite
from Cikancra, Tasikmalaya, West Java may be useful
for prospective zeolite users or people interested in
zeolite studes. This study can also contribute to the
inventory of rare information of Indonesian natural
zeolites.
MATERIAL AND METHODS

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

The mineral oonposition of zeolite identified by
XRD is presented in X- Ray Diffractogram in Rgure 2.
The presence of two different groups of peak sha.ved
that the sample contained both mordenite and
clinoptilolite. Detailed examination showed that the
sample also contained contamination of quartz (d =
4.2509 and 3.3657) and montmorillonite (d = 16.9154).
Mordenite and clinoptilolite are two major zeolites found
in Indonesia so far. The two minerals have been
obtained together in varied proportion. In general the
presence of mordenite is more dominant than
clinoptilolite.

main cation in mordenite and clinoptilolite structures.
Other elements present in zeolites were potassium,
calscium and magnesiurn. Those elements are
contamination in zeolite structure and can be exchanged.
Other col1taminant in zeolites is iron. Iron contamination
can be diluted by acid (H2SO4 I HCI) or base (NaOH)
trr'.atments, which can increase the surface area and
allow the restructuring of atom positions in ze<..lites to be
exchanged with other cation. Washing with water is
required after acid or base activation to neutralise the
zeolites, followed by drying.

Material--Zeolite
Cikancra
-C.~.C(meq/100 gr)143
Cation exchange capacity (CEC) value of natural
zeolites from Cikancra was 143 meqt 1 10gr. This is the
number of cation that can be exchanged by zeolites
withorrt activation. CEC value above 1uo mecV100g can
be considered as high for natuml Ze<"lite and it reflects
the good quality of Zeolite Cikallcra. This cation
exchange property may be used for several zeolite
aJ:plications in agri<.;ulture (fertilizer, releasing agen~
etc.), animal nutrients, odor control or environment
(water treatment
Quantitative chemical analysis was carried out
using MS, while XRF analysis was qualitative due to the
lack of standard samples. Results of chemical analysis
are presented in Table 2 anc 4. Silica and alumina are
fo~ing the major composition of zeolites. Zeolites are
known to have a base tetrahedral structure of SiO., ,
where Si4+ ions are commonly exchanged by Al3+ ions to
form tetrahedral of AI 0.-. The nElgative charye is
nelJtralized by a presence of alkali cations, which ca.l !
move freely in the structure and can be exchanged.
Based on chemical analysis, sodum was the main catiOil
in Zeolite Cikancras. Sodum has been known as thJ
