dc.description.abstract Zeolite materials are among the relatively cheap and readily available materials for wastewater treatment. However, the performance of zeolite-based systems can be highly affected by the material properties. In this study, the treatment system based on natural zeolite materials from Chankanai mines in Kazakhstan was compared with a synthetic zeolite treatment system for the purification of groundwater. Water quality indices were also developed from a set of selected water quality parameters to further assess the state of water quality of raw groundwater and the effluents treated with natural and synthetic zeolite. The lowest removal efficiency of natural zeolite (30%) was observed with zinc, while the lowest removal efficiency (36%) of synthetic zeolite was observed with arsenic. With turbidity and beryllium, we observed the maximum removal efficiency (100%) of natural zeolite, whereas with turbidity, we observed the highest removal efficiency (100%) of synthetic zeolite. When the groundwater samples were put through the natural zeolite treatment system, removal efficiency of 50% and above was obtained with 27 (79.4%) out of the 34 water quality parameters examined. On the other hand, when the groundwater samples were put through the synthetic zeolite treatment system, more than 50% removal efficiency was attained with 30 (88.2%) out of the 34 water quality parameters studied. The aggregated water quality index of raw groundwater was 3278.24, falling in the “water unsuitable for drinking” category. The effluent treated with natural zeolite generated 144.82 as a water quality index, falling in the “poor water” quality category. Synthetic zeolite generated 94.79 as a water quality index, falling in the “good water” quality category. Across the board, it was shown that the synthetic zeolite treatment system outperformed the natural zeolite treatment system according to a number of water quality parameters. The findings of this study offer substantial knowledge that can be used to develop more efficient groundwater treatment technologies. ru
