Abstract

Lithium/alkaline earth metal X zeolites in which the lithium:alkaline earth metal equivalent ratio is from about 95:5 to about 50:50 and lithium/alkaline earth metal A zeolites in which the lithium:alkaline earth metal equivalent ratio is from about 10:90 to about 70:30 are useful for separating oxygen and nitrogen from mixtures because they combine high adsorption capacity with high thermal stability.
