Abstract
Binderless BaKX zeolitic adsorbents, methods for their production, and adsorptive separation using the adsorbents are provided. An adsorbent comprises a first Zeolite X having a silica to alumina molar ratio of from about 2.0 to about 3.0; a binder-converted Zeolite X wherein a ratio of the binder-converted Zeolite X to the first Zeolite X ranges from about 10:90 to about 20:80 by weight; and barium and potassium at cationic exchangeable sites within the binderless BaKX zeolitic adsorbent. Potassium ranges from about 0.9 wt % to about 1.5 wt % and barium ranges from about 30 wt % to about 34 wt % of the binderless BaKX zeolitic adsorbent.
