Abstract

The present invention is directed to a process for separating nitrogen from gas mixtures containing nitrogen and less strongly adsorbed components such as oxygen, hydrogen, argon or helium by use of an at least binary exchanged X-zeolite having lithium and calcium and/or strontium ions in ratio of preferably 5% to 50% calcium and/or strontium and 50% to 95% lithium.
