Unclear what this is. No in-line refs. Only external links refer to the same academic paper looking at the performance of a mixture of zeolite and carbon. No evidence that Zeocarbon is anything other than a neologism or somebody's day-dream. Probably just an essay. Velella ^{Velella Talk} 22:34, 23 October 2012 (UTC)

Delete Inadequate sourcing. Xxanthippe (talk) 21:49, 24 October 2012 (UTC).
Delete - I found a few references, but they all seem to refer back to already referenced articles. The subject is simply not notable enough, from what I can tell. - Mr X 03:07, 25 October 2012 (UTC)
Comment: A [http://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&q=zeocarbon&btnG=&as_sdt=1%2C50&as_sdtp= GScholar search] shows multiple peer-reviewed sources mentioning the topic, so the substance is genuine. I question whether a cohesive article could be assembled from these sources, however. Probably fails WP:GNG, due to lack of coverage.--E8 (talk) 02:54, 28 October 2012 (UTC)

::Hardly any cites to those articles though. We would usually expect several thousand references for an article on a subject. Xxanthippe (talk) 03:22, 28 October 2012 (UTC).

Delete - As far as I can tell, this is a product (see this [http://airconditioner-portable.com/zeocarbonmsds.html data sheet] with a register trademark symbol confirmed with this [http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=4008:ireo7m.2.1 USPTO result]). It appears to be a mixture of activated carbon and zeolite which Pennington Equipment marketed under the trade name Zeocarbon. Although mentioned here and there, I was unable to find any significant coverage of this specific product to establish notability. -- Whpq (talk) 15:13, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
Delete. There are some citations in [http://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&q=zeocarbon&btnG=&as_sdt=1%2C50&as_sdtp= Google Scholar], but there's absolutely nothing in Google News or elsewhere on the web that's reliable and independent. If this were notable, I'd expect at least a marginal amount of coverage in the mainstream media. The scholarly sources are limited (only one of them uses the term "Zeocarbon" in its title; most are about zeolite) and in my view do not rise to significant coverage as required under WP:GNG. --Batard0 (talk) 05:14, 30 October 2012 (UTC)
