Abstract
The project aims to enhance the understanding and control of zeolite crystallization, porous minerals
with wide-ranging applications in numerous industries like petrochemical, environmental remediation,
and pharmaceuticals. The primary objective is to investigate the impact of electric fields on zeolite
crystallization mechanisms. This goal is pursued through a novel synthesis approach facilitating
comprehensive analysis with a range of tools, alongside the utilization of specialized methods
incorporating movable electrodes for simultaneous measurement and application of electric fields. The
research is conducted in close collaboration with materials scientists and chemists from KU Leuven,
Belgium.
