The focus of this study was on the preparation of a clinoptilolite-based adsorbent, utilizing natural zeolite, to adsorb and remove ammonia (NH3) emitted from various environmental facilities, and to evaluate its performance. To create an adsorbent suitable for humid environments, hydrophobicity was introduced through HCl acid treatment. The impact of acid concentration and treatment time was analyzed to optimize the preparation conditions. As a result, the adsorbent treated with 0.5 M HCl for 2 hours demonstrated the highest NH3 adsorption performance. These findings suggest that the developed adsorbent could serve as an effective solution for controlling NH3 emissions in humid environments, contributing to the mitigation of environmental pollution and odor issues.
