FIELD: chemistry.
SUBSTANCE: present invention relates to aggregated zeolite adsorbents based on X and LSX zeolites. The adsorbent contains zeolite X powder, substituted with at least 90% barium ions only or barium and potassium ions, where in exchangeable sites occupied by potassium, representing up to 1/3 of exchangeable sites occupied by barium and potassium ions, there are additional alkali or alkali-earth ions other than barium and potassium, as well as zeolite LSX powder substituted with at least 90% barium ions only or barium and potassium ions, where in exchangeable sites occupied by potassium, possibly representing up to 1/3 exchangeable sites occupied by barium and potassium ions, there are possibly additional alkali or alkali-earth ions other than barium and potassium, and also binder in an amount equal to or less than 20% of the total weight of the agglomerated zeolite adsorbent. The obtained adsorbents are efficient in separating C8 aromatic isomers, particularly xylenes, separating sugars, separating polyatomic alcohols, separating isomers of substituted toluenes, separating cresols and separating dichlorobenzenes.
EFFECT: higher efficiency.
