For the sake of simplicity, all you would really need to do is pop a decent fiter paper in the Büchner, maybe put a layer of fine white silica sand in next, and then 5 - 10mm of celite. Moisten with ethanol and suction through for packing, then run the post-zeolite solution through, followed by another ethanol rinse to conserve yield.


The best way to do this might be to dump the zeolite mixture into the pre-packed funnel immediately after doing the conversion, so you can minimise solvent volumes. Given the stickiness of the resin, it may be a good idea to cover the celite with another layer of sand and/or an additional filter paper.
