Provided is a practically valuable and economically excellent insolubilizing material for a specific toxic substance: that is useful for insolubilizing treatment for a heavy metal or the like conducted by applying the insolubilizing material for a specific toxic substance to soil or on the surface of the soil; that is capable of effectively insolubilizing and immobilizing the heavy metal or the like; that is capable of making treated matter neutral so as to be reusable and environment-friendly; and moreover that is capable of imparting strength to the treated matter as necessary; and with which the heavy metal or the like is not re-eluted even when the treated matter is exposed to an environment under a neutral condition or an acidic condition. An insolubilizing material for a specific toxic substance to be used so that soil does not reach a strongly alkaline region of a pH of 11 or more, wherein the insolubilizing material for a specific toxic substance comprises an amorphous aluminum compound or a derivative thereof as a main component, or an insolubilizing material for a specific toxic substance to be used so that soil containing a heavy metal or the like does not reach a strongly alkaline region of a pH of 11 or more, the insolubilizing material for a specific toxic substance functioning also as a solidifying material, wherein the insolubilizing material for a specific toxic substance comprises gypsum obtained by adding and mixing, to the gypsum, the amorphous aluminum compound and the derivative thereof in a range of 0.5 to 60 mass parts relative to 100 mass parts of the gypsum, and a method for improving soil using the insolubilizing material for a specific toxic substance. |
