CHEMICAL ACTIVATION OF BENTONITE USING PHOSPHORIC ACID: STRUCTURAL MODIFICATION AND APPLICATION POTENTIALS

  • 1. Head of the Research and Analytical Laboratory, Bukhara Oil Refinery LLC

Description

this study investigates the chemical activation of bentonite using phosphoric acid (H₃PO₄) and examines its impact on the physicochemical properties of the clay. Structural modifications, surface area enhancement, and elemental transformations are analyzed using various characterization techniques. The activated bentonite is evaluated for its adsorption potential and its suitability in environmental and industrial applications.
