This work is focused on crystal phase transition of solid wastes and functional application of crystal analcime in waste water purification, which provide a new environment-friendly route. In this paper, analcime was synthesized from steel slag and Circulating fluidized bed combustion (CFBC) fly ash (CFA) by hydrothermal method enhanced via geopolymerization (non-crystallized process). Then the analcimes were used for the removal of heavy metal ions (Pb2+, Cu2+) in aqueous solutions. Both the raw materials and products were characterized by XRF, XRD, FT-IR, SEM-EDS, and TEM. The results showed that non-crystallized process reduced the time of hydrothermal reaction and promoted the purity of analcime. The adsorption kinetics of analcime were all well fitted the pseudo-second-order model, and adsorption isotherms were well described by the Langmuir model. The maximum adsorption capacity of analcime for Pb2+ and Cu2+ were around 75.76, and 21.83 mg/g, respectively. The preference order observed for adsorption is Pb2+ > Cu2+.
