A method of manufacturing crystalline microporous material suitable for
manufacturing a variety of crystalline microporous material under mild
reaction conditions and under safe working environmental conditions by
using simple installation. The crystalline microporous materials obtained
by the present invention may be used as adsorbent agent, catalyst or
separating material. According to the characterizing features of the
manufacturing method of the present invention, there are provided a method
of using cation compound or amine as crystallizing modifier and using, in
combination, raw material including kanemite or silicon dioxide and a
further method using raw material including silicon dioxide and aluminum
salt. The method includes a step of mixing these components, a
solid-liquid separating step for separating produced fine particles, and a
crystallizing step for crystallizing the separated solid component. The
invention achieves improvement in safety, economy and so on, in comparison
with the coventionally practiced hydrothermal synthesis method which
requires severe reaction conditions of high-temperature, high-pressure and
strong alkaline. Further, the method allows freedom in adjustment of the
pore diameter and allows a higher proportion of porous structure to be
maintained in a product when the material is formed into a molded product.
