Waste water treatment using chemicals reagents are effective but pose serious environmental and health problems.Public demand for renewable and biodegradable products grows with awareness of environmental protection, materials of biological origin appear to offer solutions. In our present work, we have synthetized matrix membranes based on different compositions of granulated actived carbonne (GAC),kaolin,Zinc Oxide (ZnO) and Iron Oxyde (Fe2O3). The membrane samples  were characterized by different analytical methods such as FTIR spectroscopy and XRD .The matrix membranes were tested for the removal of toxic metals such as chromium from aqueous solutions  The experimental test were caried on filtration unit .After each filtration test ,the concentraton of the heavy metals were be determined by analytical method . The rejection rate ratio was calculatad refering to the values of the copper and chromium concentration on Feed and permeate .solutions .The results shows the important contribution of natural inorganic matter on the copper and chromium ions from water.
