Magnetizable adsorbent particles suitable for use in a magnetically stabilized fluidized bed and with a smaller particle size than conventionally formed composite adsorbents are prepared by introducing magnetizable particles such as magnetite or iron into a reaction mixture for forming a zeolite having adsorbent properties, such as zeolite Y. The zeolite is formed as a coating on the magnetizable particle.

Magnetizable adsorbents

There is disclosed a process for preparing magnetizable particles comprising Zeolite Y wherein magnetizable particles are introduced into a vessel containing the reaction mixture used to form Zeolite Y and, during heating, the vessel is rotated so that the Zeolite Y is formed as a layer on the surface of the magnetizable particles.
