In this work from kaolin processing industries from Ipixuna-PA were used in order to synthesi analcime derived zeolite as predominant crystalline phase though the hydrothermal process. The sample was converted into metakaolinite by calcinations at 700°C during 4 hours. From sample this metakaolinite a reacting mixture consisting of diatomite and sodium hydroxide was prepared. In order to determine of ideal conditions for analcime synthesis, a number of process variables were measured such as sodium availability, silicon ratio, nature of the silica source, pH of the reacting mixture, and auto clave residence time. Some important properties of the adsorbent where measured as well, such as thermal stability in the presence of acids hydrogen desorption kinetics, the trends of the adsorption isotherms as such as selectivity for copper, cadmium, zinc and nickel ions. Analcime synthesis from kaolin processing wastes was feasible. A displacement in the (h, k, l) planes was observed at 400 °C and was maintained up to 600°C, caused by the withdrawal of oxygen in positions 1/8 in analcime, shrinking the unit cell and in active channels and sites of zeolite, affecting its adsorption capacity.

Zeolite A and Hydroxysodalite were synthesized after kaolin wastes from kaolin processing industries for paper coating, located in the Amazon region. The waste is mainly composed by kaolinite, which has the same SiO2/Al2O3 ratio requested for those two zeolites. Thereby, synthesis process may occur in two steps: 1) the kaolin was submitted to thermal treatment, through calcination process at 700 °C for 2 h, in order to obtain the metakaolinite phase. The metakaolinite obtained reacted with NaOH solution, in hydrothermal conditions, using autoclaves, at the following temperatures: 80, 110 and 150 °C for 24 h. The starting materials were identified and characterized by means of X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis and synthesis products were characterized by means of XRD, SEM, Thermal Methods (DTA-DTG) and Fourier Transformed Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). A mixture of Zeolite A and Hydroxysodalite was obtained through this process at 150°C. In the temperature of 110 ºC there was only the Zeolite A formation. Nevertheless, in the lowest synthesis temperature (80°C) there was no crystalline material formation for the established conditions.
