Abstract: A method for controlling the microbial contamination of water. Impure water is passed through a container packed with a specially-treated antimicrobial zeolite material. Zinc ions incorporated into the framework of the zeolite provide the antimicrobial effect. The method is designed to control bacterial levels while preserving the taste and potability of the water.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method and composition useful for controlling microbial contamination in drinking water produced from condensation. The composition comprises a zeolite which is modified to introduce zinc by ion exchange. The method comprises passing drinking water produced from condensation through a column packed with the modified zeolite.
