In this research we aimed to obtain a more effective material by combining clinoptilolite and polymer aerogel. In order to combine the natural adsorption properties of clinoptilolite with the porous structure of polymer aerogel, we processed them in acetone solvent under certain conditions. During the process, the synthesis was carried out at a temperature of 70-90°C and for 3-9 hours. We found that the composite material obtained as a result of this modification was very effective for wastewater treatment, especially for the removal of heavy metals such as cadmium (Cd²⁺) and nickel (As3⁺). The obtained material attracted attention with both its high porosity and durability. This approach shows that the combination of clinoptilolite and polymer aerogel can play an important role in solving environmental problems such as wastewater treatment.
