Summary
The local clinoptilolite from Bigadis region in Turkiye, was used for air drying in packed column. The effective diffusion coefficient of water in natural zeolite was found as 5×10−10 m2 s−1 from isothermal uptake measurements. Effects of packing height and airvelocity on breakthrough curves were studied.
