Sodium aluminosilicate was prepared as follows. Approximately 5990 L of sulfate water (4% concentration) were added to a 36,000-L reactor. While mixing, the reactor contents were heated to 55° C., and 119.8 L of sodium silicate were added to the reactor and mixed. A 25-min simultaneous addition step with alum and silicate solution followed, using a sodium silicate addition rate of 398.8 L/min and an alum addition rate of 145.1 L/min. After the simultaneous addition step, a reduced alum flow rate was used to bring the batch pH to about 5.3. After digesting the batch for 10 min, the product slurry was washed and filtered using a press filter. The collected filtered cake was reslurried and zirconium oxysulfate powder was manually added. The zirconium treated cake slurry was then fed into a vertical bead mill. The bead-milled Zr-treated cake slurry was then spray dried and hammer milled to an average 3-5 micron particle size. Two batches were run, one resulting in a final amount of 0.3 wt. % Zr (Example 25), and the other resulting in a final amount of 0.45 wt. % Zr (Example 26), based on the Zr-treated sodium aluminosilicate weight.
