Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of fertilizers, and in particular to a humic acid-based compound fertilizer, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] For a long time, while the use of chemical fertilizers has increased crop yields and incomes, its overuse has also led to numerous side effects such as soil compaction, salinization, decreased soil fertility, and environmental pollution. Humic acid is a class of natural high-molecular-weight organic compounds formed from plant and animal residues through microbial decomposition and geochemical processes. It is widely found in soils, peat, lignite, and weathered coal. In agriculture, humic acid has multiple functions, including improving soil structure, enhancing soil fertility, promoting crop growth, and strengthening crop resistance.

[0003] Although humic acid possesses many excellent characteristics, the biggest problem with natural humic acid is its poor water solubility, which severely limits its widespread application in agricultural production. To improve the water solubility of humic acid, existing technologies typically employ methods such as alkali dissolution, oxidation, and sulfonation to modify it. Compared to the other two methods, alkali dissolution causes less structural damage to humic acid and preserves its biological activity. However, the humates obtained by the traditional alkali dissolution process contain many impurities, reducing the effectiveness of the fertilizer. Furthermore, humic acid fertilizers prepared using existing technologies usually only contain humic acid and potassium, failing to simultaneously provide the complete nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium required for crop growth.

[0004] Patent CN 101024590 B discloses a method for preparing a water-soluble fertilizer containing humic acid. The humic acid is prepared by using potassium humate instead of sodium humate, which avoids environmental pollution and also replenishes the soil with a large amount of potassium. The method for preparing the potassium humate solution involves adding water and raw materials containing humic acid to a slurry tank, adding potassium hydroxide as an extractant, maintaining the temperature at 50-60℃, slurry extraction for 1-2 hours, centrifuging in a centrifuge, and filtering out the potassium humate solution. However, this method is still a traditional alkaline dissolution process and does not solve the problem of impurities.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need in the market for a humic acid-based compound fertilizer that solves the water solubility problem of traditional humic acid and has the advantage of complete nutrition, which can effectively promote crop growth. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this invention discloses a humic acid-based compound fertilizer. It uses potassium nitrohumate slurry as the main component, solving the water solubility problem of traditional humic acid. Furthermore, it is combined with monoammonium phosphate, urea, potassium dihydrogen phosphate, trace element chelate solution, and sulfonate filtration reducer, giving it the advantage of complete nutrition and enabling it to efficiently promote crop growth.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: The present invention provides a humic acid-based compound fertilizer, which, by weight, comprises the following raw materials: 30-40 parts of potassium nitrohumate slurry, 15-25 parts of monoammonium phosphate, 15-20 parts of urea, 5-10 parts of potassium dihydrogen phosphate, 3-5 parts of trace element chelation solution, and 0.5-1 parts of sulfonate filtration loss reducer.

[0008] In some embodiments of the present invention, the method for preparing the potassium nitrohumate slurry includes the following steps: (1) Take lignite, crush it, sieve it, dry it, add 1.5-2.5 mol / L HCl aqueous solution, heat it, stir it, filter it, take the solid, wash it, add 1.5-2.5 mol / L HF aqueous solution, heat it, stir it, filter it, take the solid, wash it, dry it, and get product 1 for later use; (2) Take product 1 from step (1), add HNO3 aqueous solution, heat, stir, cool to room temperature, age, filter, take solid, wash, dry, and obtain product 2 for later use; (3) Take product 2 from step (2), add KOH aqueous solution, heat, stir, cool to room temperature, centrifuge, and take the liquid to obtain potassium nitrohumate slurry.

[0009] In step (3), the ratio of product 2 to KOH aqueous solution is 1g:(11-13)ml, and the concentration of KOH aqueous solution is 0.5-0.7mol / L.

[0010] In some embodiments of the present invention, in step (1), the ratio of lignite, HCl aqueous solution and HF aqueous solution is 1g:(3.5-4.5)ml:(4.5-5.5)ml.

[0011] Preferably, in step (1), the ratio of lignite, HCl aqueous solution and HF aqueous solution is 1g:4ml:5ml.

[0012] In some embodiments of the present invention, in step (2), the ratio of product 1 to HNO3 aqueous solution is 1g: (9.5-10.5)ml, wherein the concentration of HNO3 aqueous solution is 10-20wt%.

[0013] Preferably, in step (2), the ratio of product 1 to HNO3 aqueous solution is 1g:10ml, wherein the concentration of HNO3 aqueous solution is 15wt%.

[0014] Humic acid can promote fertilizer utilization, improve soil structure, and improve crop quality. However, natural humic acid contains many hydrophobic groups and has poor water solubility, which leads to a decrease in the absorption and utilization rate of crops and limits its functional effects. Potassium nitrohumate can break the chain of humic acid and turn it into water-soluble small molecules, which are widely used in the field of fertilizer.

[0015] To control costs and the nitro content of potassium nitrohumate, natural lignite is often chosen as the raw material for its extraction and preparation in industry. However, potassium nitrohumate prepared by traditional processes contains a large amount of impurities such as silicon, aluminum, calcium, and magnesium. These impurities can form precipitates with nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, reducing the effectiveness of the fertilizer. The applicant chose to pre-treat lignite by controlling the amount of acid and HF aqueous solution added to remove impurities and improve purity. Furthermore, the applicant controlled the nitration reaction conditions to increase the number of active groups in the potassium nitrohumate molecule and improve its water solubility. This improved the efficiency and stability of subsequent chelation with nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and trace elements, thereby enhancing the growth-promoting effect of humic acid compound fertilizer on crops.

[0016] In some embodiments of the present invention, the method for preparing the trace element chelate solution includes the following steps: Add EDTA to deionized water 1, stir, and set aside the liquid. Add the trace element mixture to deionized water 2, add the solution, stir, and you will get the trace element chelated solution. The ratio of EDTA to deionized water 1 is 1g: (9-11)ml; the ratio of trace element mixture to deionized water 2 is 1g: (4-5)ml; and the mass ratio of EDTA to trace element mixture is 1: (2.5-3).

[0017] In some embodiments of the present invention, the trace element mixture comprises ZnSO4·7H2O, FeSO4·7H2O, CuSO4·5H2O, and (NH4)6Mo7O. 24 It is composed of 4H2O and Na2B4O7·10H2O.

[0018] In some embodiments of the present invention, the trace element mixture contains ZnSO4·7H2O, FeSO4·7H2O, CuSO4·5H2O, and (NH4)6Mo7O. 24 The mass ratio of ·4H2O and Na2B4O7·10H2O is 1:(0.8-1):(0.7-9):(0.35-0.5):(0.6-0.8).

[0019] In some embodiments of the present invention, the sulfonate filtration reducer is sodium lignosulfonate.

[0020] In another aspect, this invention provides a method for preparing a humic acid-based compound fertilizer, comprising the following steps: Add sulfonate filtration reducer to nitrohumate slurry, stir, heat to 55-65℃, and add monoammonium phosphate, urea, and potassium dihydrogen phosphate in sequence while stirring. Add trace element chelation solution, stir, filter, and age to obtain humic acid-based compound fertilizer.

[0021] In another aspect, this invention provides an application of humic acid-based compound fertilizer, which can be applied to fruits, vegetables, underground root crops, flowers, and medicinal herbs.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: (1) This invention discloses a humic acid-based compound fertilizer, which uses potassium nitrohumate slurry as the main component, thus solving the water solubility problem of traditional humic acid. It is combined with monoammonium phosphate, urea, potassium dihydrogen phosphate, trace element chelate solution and sulfonate filtration reduction agent. Through the synergistic effect between the components, it has the advantages of complete nutrition and can efficiently promote crop growth.

[0023] (2) The present invention designs and prepares a potassium nitrohumate slurry. The applicant selects to control the amount of acid and HF aqueous solution added to pre-treat lignite to remove impurities and improve purity. Furthermore, the nitration reaction conditions are controlled to increase the number of active groups in the potassium nitrohumate molecule and improve its water solubility, thereby improving the efficiency and stability of subsequent chelation with nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and trace elements, and thus making the humic acid compound fertilizer have a better effect on promoting crop growth.
