A method of rapid treatment of heavy metal sludge and preparation of ferrite magnets comprises following steps of: providing a sludge, the sludge at least having zinc metal and ferrous metal; adding an iron-containing substance to the sludge; pickling the sludge and the iron-containing substance with sulfuric acid to obtain a pickling solution with zinc ions and iron ions; neutralizing the pickling solution with sodium hydroxide to form hydroxide precipitates; and airing and heating the neutralized pickling solution by an ultrasonic-microwave method so that the hydroxide precipitates undergoing a ferrite magnet reaction, thereby obtaining ferrite magnets with a spathic structure.

When manufacturing a magnetic body which is made of a ferrite material containing Fe, Ni, and Zn, and whose Mn content is 0.1288 percent by mass or higher, or a magnetic body which is made of a ferrite material containing Fe, Ni, Zn, and Cu, and whose Mn content is 0.1178 percent by mass or higher, an iron oxide powder whose Mn content is 0.20 percent by mass or higher is used as a raw material powder.

When manufacturing a magnetic body whose primary component is Ni—Zn ferrite, an iron oxide powder whose Mn content is 0.20 to 0.85 percent by mass is used as a raw material powder, or, in addition to using an iron oxide powder whose Mn content is 0.20 percent by mass or higher as a raw material powder, a mol ratio of Ni to Zn (Ni/Zn) in the ferrite material is determined based on the Mn content in the iron oxide powder and the raw material powders are compounded in such a way that the mol ratio is achieved. The magnetic body does not contain any additives as essential components other than the primary components of the Ni—Zn ferrite material. A coil component using the magnetic body has excellent direct-current superimposition property and magnetic permeability.
