Shown that galvanic production, which is engaged in the application of protective or decorative coatings on metal and non-metal products (galvanizing, nickel plating, oxidation), can also be attributed to enterprises that pollute the environment with wastewater. Subject to all the norms of the technological process, despite the various methods of surface treatment of products, a certain amount of wastewater of complex composition is still formed. With an inferior degree of purification, they are one of the sources of pollution of aquatic environments. The main toxic components polluting this kind of wastewater are heavy metal ions such as chromium-6, cadmium-2, lead-2 and other toxic substances. Shown that in wastewater treatment the main place belongs to the sorption method, which uses natural sorbents such as activated carbons, zeolites, bentonite clays, and other natural materials. Searched for natural raw materials to obtain effective sorbents during decontamination of industrial effluents. The chemical-mineralogical composition of a number of deposits of aluminosilicate rocks in Azerbaijan has been studied. An analysis of the results obtained made it possible to establish the optimal variant of the synthesis of sorbents. Based on a frame-type aluminosilicate zeolite (clinoptilolite) and layered aluminosilicate (bentonite) with a high content of montmorillonite, their Na-forms were obtained. The results of the physicochemical analysis of the natural material and its modified Na-form are presented. Sorption treatment of wastewater from some heavy metal ions on modified forms of bentonite and clinoptilolite was carried out. It has been established that, in terms of sorption properties, the obtained sorbents based on natural raw materials Na-clinoptilolite and Na-bentonite can be recommended instead of synthetic industrial KU-2-8 in the sorption extraction of heavy metal ions from wastewater
