On the other hand, recently, artificial ones such as slag produced as a by-product in a steel mill, which has a characteristic that it has a small apparent specific gravity and is easy to transport and handle, have been used. However, since slag has a strong alkalinity and is not suitable for growing plants, it also has a drawback that expensive peat moss or the like must be mixed and used.

Is abbreviated as ALC.), Which is carbonized in the presence of water. ALC used in the present invention
Is a porous calcium silicate hydrate obtained by using a siliceous raw material and a calcareous raw material as main raw materials, adding a foaming agent to the raw materials, preliminarily curing them, and then performing hydrothermal synthesis in an autoclave. Many calcium silicate hydrates are known, but calcium silicate hydrates suitable for the present invention are zonotolite, tobermorite, gyrolite, foshajite, hirebrandite, etc. Is. These calcium silicate hydrates do not have to be used alone, and may be used as a mixture of two or more kinds.

For example, some defective products (such as fine cracks) generated in the ALC manufacturing plant are included. A) that occurs at construction sites of buildings and houses and construction sites of heat insulating materials
LC offcuts (cuts) can be used. A granular ALC having a uniform particle size can be obtained by coarsely crushing the scraps of ALC and defective products and appropriately sieving. The particle size is not particularly limited for use in the present invention, but the apparent specific gravity of ALC having a particle size of 0.6 to 15 mm is about 0.2 to 0.7 (depending on the type and particle size of ALC). It is lightweight, has excellent breathability, water retention, water permeability, and the like, and also has appropriate strength and is extremely favorable in physical properties as a gardening soil, which is preferable. However, ALC is originally strongly alkaline (5g of granular ALC
When the pH is measured by putting it in water, the pH is 10.1 to 10.

在するような条件下では炭酸化反応は速く、好ましい。As a method for weakening the alkalinity of ALC, it is common to neutralize with an acid. As a method for neutralizing while maintaining good physical properties as a horticultural soil, the carbonation reaction is promoted by introducing granular ALC into water and blowing carbon dioxide gas. The carbonation rate can be appropriately set depending on the temperature during the reaction, the pressure of gas blowing, and the like, but the carbonation reaction is fast under the condition that 50 to 120 parts by weight of water is present relative to 100 parts by weight of the granular ALC, which is preferable. .

た。The present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the following examples. The ALC mill ends collected from the building construction site were soaked in a crusher, the inner reinforcing bars were pulled out, and then coarsely crushed by a hammer mill. The coarsely pulverized product was sieved and then sufficiently dried at 110 ° C. to obtain granular ALC having a particle size of 1 to 3 mm. It was confirmed by X-ray diffraction and fluorescent X-ray analysis that the granular ALC was calcium silicate containing tobermorite as a main component and the Ca / Si ratio was 0.58. The apparent specific gravity was 0.50, and when 5 g of the granular ALC was placed in 500 g of water and the pH was measured, the pH was 10.56.

It was placed in a room at room temperature of 20 ° C. for 10 days and the germination status and the subsequent growth status were observed. During this time, an appropriate amount of water was put in each petri dish so that the same wet state was always maintained. The germination rate after 3 days was 92% on average in each petri dish, but on the 7th day, it grew to an average of about 3.1 cm and the leaves continued to grow without wilting.
