The aim of this paperis the synthesis of a Faujasite type zeolite: 9SiO2: Al2O3: 3Na2O: 120H2O and   study   its   ability   to   remove   heavy   metals   from   an   industrial   effluent.Characterization of the zeolite was carried out by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD),  Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).The study of the elimination of ten heavy metalson anaqueous effluent, taken from the industrial zone of Bounoua(Algeria),showsthat  the synthesized zeolite  is  able  to  eliminate  nearly  40%  of the analyzed heavy  metals. the  results  demonstrate  a  removal  rates  of  metals  in  a  descreasing order, as following: Cd &gt; Mn &gt; Sn &gt; Fe &gt; Cr &gt; Ni &gt; Pb &gt; Mg &gt; Zn &gt; Cu.Cadmium is the most adsorbed metal with a rate of86.47 % and copper takes the last position with a removal  rate of19.27 %.The kinetics and isotherms study of adsorbtion of cadmiumby zeoliteshows that  the  adsorption  is  managed  by  kinetics  of  the  pseudo-second  order  and  the  Langmuir isotherm represents better the adsorption of this metal.The study demonstrates that, besides the economy, zeolite facilitates the process of adsorbtion. Moreover, the zeolite is very efficient and reliable material to eliminate the heavy metals and to mitigate the problems of pollution of the environment causedby the industrial activities.
