Ni and Al ions were used to modify the pores of the zeolite and the methane gas adsorption capacity was measured at room temperature and pressure between 1 to 12 bars. The textural properties and structure order of the zeolite were studied by XRD and nitrogen adsorption-desorption analysis. Inductive coupled plasma (ICP) technique was used to determine the amounts of metals loaded on the zeolite. %U https://www.ijee.net/article_64631_32054885cbbeea3aa583bbae0443404d.pdf
