Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This study presents a comparative analysis of the CO2 sorption properties of natural zeolites sourced from the Tayzhuzgen (Tg) and Shankanay (Sh) deposits in Kazakhstan. The Tayzhuzgen zeolite was characterized by a Si/Al ratio of 5.6, suggesting partial dealumination, and demonstrated enhanced specific surface area following mechanical activation. Modification of the Tayzhuzgen zeolite with magnesium oxide significantly improved its CO2 sorption capacity, reaching 8.46 mmol CO2/g, attributed to the formation of the CaMg(Si2O6) phase and the resulting increase in basic active sites. TPD-CO2 analysis confirmed that MgO/Tg exhibited the highest basicity of the modified samples, further validating its potential for CO2 capture applications.
