The invention particularly relates to a method for preparing a foam 
ceramic by using industrial and mining, building and 
sludge residue as raw materials, and belongs to the technical field of environmental-protection foam ceramics, wherein 
protein foaming agent preparing, foam 
slurry preparing, molding and curing, high-temperature 
sintering, and detecting and packaging are performed to prepare thefoam 
ceramic. According to the present invention, the molded and cured foam 
slurry is conveyed to the 
tunnel kiln using 
liquefied petroleum gas as the fuel, and then enters the high temperature section through the 
sintering device, such that the two composite heating 
modes are innovatively connected in series so as to save the 
energy consumption or the fuel cost by 15-30%, and the technical problem that 
heavy metals, dioxins, and other organic pollutants cannot be completely removed during the 
combustion of industrial and mining, building and 
sludge residue is fundamentally solved; and the foam 
ceramic prepared through the method is the novel 
building material, and can have excellent performances of hydrophobicity, 
fire resistance, sound resistance, heat insulation, high 
compressive strength, 
acid resistance, alkali resistance, no aging, less deformation and the like according to the opened and closed gaps of the foam.
