Zeolite-Alpha was synthesized under hydrothermal and static conditions and was characterized by N2 BET surface area, XRD, SEM–EDAX analysis, NH3-TPD and FTIR. The dynamic adsorption experiments were carried out on a TPD plus Chemisorption system (Micrometrics ASAP 2920 unit). Adsorption was found to be high initially and it then decreases with an increase in the injected volume. It was found that adsorption increases with an increase in contact time between DMMP and zeolite-Alpha only up to 8 h after which it remains almost constant. Desorption pattern was analyzed which shows two types of peaks, sharp peak with onset temperature of around 30 °C which represents desorption of physisorbed DMMP and a broad peak with the onset temperature of around 110 °C which represents the desorption of strongly chemisorbed DMMP.
