Abstract
A material for treating heavy metals and metal ions. The material contains as its main components quicklime and cement, and also contains, with respect to the quicklime and the cement, 0.05 to 0.35% by weight of potassium chloride, 0.03 to 0.20% by weight of magnesium chloride, 0.03 to 0.20% by weight of sodium chloride, 0.03 to 0.25% by weight of calcium chloride, 0.00002 to 0.01% by weight of cobalt chloride, 0.00002 to 0.01% by weight of citric acid, and 0.001 to 0.02% by weight of sodium sulfate. Harmful heavy metals and metal ions contained in effluents, slurries and sludges can be securely and inexpensively confined in a state in which they are prevented from elution. A coating of a fatty acid may be formed on the surface of the quicklime.
