International Journal of Chemical Engineering and Applications (IJCEA) is an international academic open access journal which gains a foothold in Singapore, Asia and opens to the world. It aims to promote the integration of chemical engineering and applications. The focus is to publish papers on state-of-the-art chemical engineering and applications. Submitted papers will be reviewed by technical committees of the Journal and Association. The audience includes researchers, managers and operators for chemical engineering and applications as well as designers and developers.

All submitted articles should report original, previously unpublished research results, experimental or theoretical, and will be peer-reviewed. Articles submitted to the journal should meet these criteria and must not be under consideration for publication elsewhere. Manuscripts should follow the style of the journal and are subject to both review and editing.

Alkali Fusion of Waste Perlite Dust to Synthesize Faujasite Zeolite Using a Rotary Kiln
T. Wajima and S. Onishi
In this study, we attempted to continuously treat waste perlite dust by alkali fusion using a rotary kiln, to synthesize faujasite zeolite. A mixture of perlite dust and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) powder with three different mixture ratios (by weight) of 1:0.5, 1:0.8, and 1:1 was charged into a rotary kiln, and heated at 380 °C or 450 °C for 30 min. The resultant fused material was then converted into faujasite, a zeolite product, by heating it at 80 °C for 12 h followed by shaking for 24 h in distilled water at room temperature. It was confirmed that sodium silicate was formed using the rotary kiln, and the dissolution of Si and Al in the fused dust increased with increasing NaOH addition near the exit of the kiln. Faujasite could be synthesized for all fused conditions, and ...[Read More]
