The study presents experimental results on the adsorption of endosulfan in new natural zeolite deposits from Mexico. The adsorption of this herbicide was evaluated using inverse gas chromatography with a thermal conductivity detector and helium as the carrier gas. The experimental adsorption data were analyzed using the Langmuir and Freundlich equations in their linear form over a temperature range of 413&ndash:573 K. The study also estimated thermodynamic parameters such as the Free Energy of Gibbs (&Delta:G), isosteric enthalpy of adsorption (&Delta:H), and entropy change (&Delta:S) within this temperature range. The results indicated that the zeolites studied had a low adsorption capacity for this herbicide under the experimental conditions. The study also quantitatively determined the presence of starting minerals, with Na-Mordenite and Na-Clinoptilolite being the most prevalent, followed by Ca-Chabazite, Ca-Clinoptilolite, and Montmorillonite, with Quartz being present in low amounts. The NMOR zeolite underwent ion exchanges with AgNO3 to produce the Ag-MOR zeolite and assess its herbicide adsorption capacity. Another mineral, Ca-Stilbite, was present in higher quantities than Ca-Clinoptilolite and Quartz.
