Abstract
This work is aimed to study the feasibility of synthetic zeolite production from natural kaolin. This study was than focused on the non-financial and financial aspects for production of synthetic zeolite A. The scenario with a production capacities of 12 tons/day, 16 tons/day, 20 tons/day, and 24 tons/day was studied. These results showed the most optimum production of synthetic zeolite A of 24 tons/day with the financial aspects criteria with the PP value of 2 years and 7 months, NPV with IDR 2,944,741,357 and IRR of 22% with an investment value of IDR 17,524,623,494. Production of synthetic zeolite A is feasible with a production life of 20 years. This promising production of this synthetic zeolite A indicates a great potential of natural kaolin for producing the synthetic zeolite A.
