The aims of this research are to synthesis zeolite derived from bottom ash of coal using hydrothermal reaction and modiffied by dithizhone to apply an adsorbent of Cd2+ to study the equilibrium, kinetic and thermodynamic. The result using X-ray Diffraction (XRD) showed that zeolit X, zeolit A, zeolit Sodalit, zeolit Na-P, has been formed. Zeolite product showed specific IR absorption zeolite at wavenumber 300-1250 cm-1and zeolite modified dithizone showed absorption –NH and –SH at wavenumber 1496,76 and 2461,17 cm-1. The results SAA showed that with addition dithizone lowering the specific surface area of zeolite from 160,262 m²/g to 69,609 m²/g. The adsorption kinetics based on the pseudo-second-order rate equation indicates that the rate limiting step involving achemical reaction. The adsorption rate constants for zeolite synthesis -0,97g/mg.min-1 and for the zeolite modified dithizone 0,0291 g/mg.min-1. Based on the Langmuir equation, the maximum adsorption capacity (qmax) synthetic zeolite 1,19 mg/g and zeolite modified dhitizone 2,35 mol/g.
