The invention discloses a method for co-treating electroplating waste residues and chromium-containing heavy metal ion waste liquid. According to the method, the electroplating waste residues of an electroplating factory are used as a mineralizer of a chrome tanning waste liquid of a tanning factory, oxides and hydroxides in the electroplating waste residues adsorb chromium ions and are mineralized and converted into chromium-containing hydrotalcite, the obtained chromium-containing hydrotalcite has an ultra-stable mineralization effect, the chromium ions are not prone to being dissolved out, and secondary pollution cannot be caused. By means of the method, the environmental pollution problem caused by the chrome tanning waste liquid can be effectively solved, recycling of the electroplating waste residues is achieved, the filtered supernate can be used for the follow-up leather pickling procedure, the mineralized solid product can effectively adsorb organic dyes such as Congo red and Evans blue, and the green route of treating waste with waste is achieved. The method is mild in reaction condition, simple and convenient to operate, simple in process, free of alkali, economical in atom, low in cost and capable of being applied to electroplate factories and leather factories on a large scale.
