Has anyone ever heard of using zeolite to help purify water? Apparently it can be found in "aquapail". I thought zeolite was linked with cancer unless there is different types of zeolite.

There are many kinds of zeolites they are a group of aluminosilicate minerals. Approximately 51 different minerals. They are used in commercial purification of water but they are very specific in their action. They are more often used as commercial absorbents. I do not know your intent but if it is for purifying water for human consumption there are many better avenues to follow.
