Abstract

In a method of removing tetrahedral aluminum from a aluminosilicate zeolite, the zeolite is treated with an aqueous fluorosilicate solution which reacts with tetrahedral aluminum in said zeolite to produce water-insoluble aluminum fluoride. In addition, during or after the aluminum removal, the zeolite is contacted with an aqueous solution containing a water-soluble fluoride of reacting with the insoluble aluminum fluoride to produce a water-soluble species.
