The invention discloses an aluminum base gelling and curing agent, which comprises 
calcium aluminate, 
sulfur aluminum 
cement and an early-strengthening coagulant aid, wherein the 
mass ratio of the above three parts is : (1-3) : (6.5-8.5) : 0.5. The invention also discloses a preparation method of the above aluminum base gelling and curing agent. According to the method, the 
calcium aluminate, the 
sulfur aluminum 
cement and the early-strengthening coagulant aid, in the 
mass ratio of the above three parts is : (1-3) : (6.5-8.5) : 0.5, are ground, sieved, mixed and stacked up in a cone shape. After that, samples are pressed flat, and 
peripheral samples are stacked up centrad again in a cone shape and then pressed flat. So repeatedly for several times, and then the aluminum base gelling and curing agent can be obtained. The invention also discloses a method for treating the dredged 
sediment by means of the above aluminum base gelling and curing agent. Waste and gravels in the mud of the dredged 
sediment are separated, and then the cationic-type 
polyacrylamide is added to thicken and dehydrate the dredged 
sewage. After that, the aluminum base gelling and curing agent is added and mixed with the dredged 
sewage, and the mixture is stirred. Meanwhile, a 
water reducer is added and mixed uniformly with the above mixture. After the 
dehydration and solidification process, the obtained product is subjected to stabilization maintenance. The aluminum base gelling and curing agent is higher in economic, social and environmental benefits.
