The advantages of diatomaceous earth are mainly manifested in the following aspects:

1. Stable physicochemical properties: Diatomaceous earth is chemically stable, abundant in reserves, and inexpensive. It is also non-toxic, harmless, and environmentally friendly.

2. Excellent adsorption performance: Diatomaceous earth is lightweight and porous, with a porosity as high as 90%. Therefore, it has strong adsorption capabilities, which can be used to remove suspended matter, heavy metal ions, bacteria, and organic pollutants in water, thereby improving water quality. Additionally, its porous nature helps improve soil structure by enhancing soil aeration and water retention.

3. Good thermal and sound insulation properties: Diatomaceous earth exhibits excellent thermal insulation and moisture absorption properties, making it suitable for use as wall materials, floor fillings, and sound insulation materials.

4. Versatile applications: Diatomaceous earth has a wide range of applications in fields such as building energy efficiency, agriculture, water treatment, food and chemical industries. It can also serve as a filler in fiberglass, rubber, and plastics, a filler in papermaking, a matting agent in paints, and a carrier for pesticides and compound fertilizers.
