[0002] Soil site is an ancient site with significant historical, cultural and scientific value, which is mainly made of soil, and is an important basis for studying the origin and development of civilization. However, with the passage of time, under the influence of natural factors and human factors, the soil site appears wall root erosion and soil body cracking and other damage phenomena, which not only deteriorates the mechanical properties of the soil body and damages the structural integrity, but also provides a path for rainwater and plant roots, leading to wind erosion and further accelerating the damage of external conditions to the site body, causing more serious permanent structural damage.

[0003] At present, the reinforcing materials for soil sites in China are roughly divided into three categories: (1) inorganic materials, such as barium hydroxide solution, calcium hydroxide solution and water glass, etc.; (2) organic materials, such as organic silicon material, epoxy resin, acrylic resin, organic water-based fluorine material, etc.; (3) composite materials, such as silica sol-silicon resin material, acrylic-acrylic-silicone-epoxy resin hybrid material, etc. These materials each have certain problems and limitations to some extent, such as poor air permeability and permeability, salting out, peeling and falling off, etc.

[0004] In order to prolong the service life of the soil site, in view of the typical soil body erosion and cracking problems in the soil site, it is urgent to provide a soil site crack repair material and a repair method which have good compatibility, low shrinkage, good weather resistance and good stability.

[0036] The present application will be described in detail below according to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments, and the purposes and effects of the present application will become more apparent. The present application will be further described in detail below in combination with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application, and are not used to limit the present application.

[0037] The present application is based on the following mechanism for repairing and strengthening the soil site: the soil site crack biological repair agent formed by mixing the carbonic anhydrase solution, the skimmed milk powder, the xanthan gum, the aspartic acid, the active magnesium oxide, the sodium bicarbonate, the straw fiber, the site soil powder, and the fine sand can quickly form a dense solidified body in the soil site crack, which has the advantages of high strength, low permeability, good ductility, strong erosion resistance and disintegration resistance, and good durability, and the dense solidified body and the crack side wall can be effectively cemented as a whole, the relative displacement of the soil site interface is controlled, and the effect of repairing the crack is achieved.

[0038] The main solidification principle of the soil site crack biological repair agent is: carbonic anhydrase catalyzes carbon dioxide hydration reaction to generate carbonate, which provides material source for carbonation of active magnesium oxide, and the carbonate reacts with the active magnesium oxide to generate hydrated magnesium carbonate cement with certain expansion, high strength, strong cementation, good stability and durability; the skimmed milk powder as the carbonic anhydrase stabilizer improves the catalytic efficiency of the carbonic anhydrase, thereby enhancing the solidification effect. The xanthan gum as the water locking agent locks the water in the soil site crack biological repair agent, avoids the secondary damage to the soil site caused by the loss of water along the soil site cracks, and the addition of the xanthan gum can increase the toughness of the cementation effect, avoid the cracks or disconnection between the surface of the soil site crack biological repair agent and the original soil site, and further improve the strength of the solidified body. The aspartic acid as the chelating agent has the effect of agglomerating the hydrated magnesium carbonate, thereby further enhancing the solidification efficiency; the straw fiber as the reinforcing material can effectively improve the deposition efficiency and yield of the hydrated magnesium carbonate, thereby further avoiding the generation of cracks and the occurrence of disconnection phenomenon, and guaranteeing the repair effect of the soil site cracks.

[0039] The application will be further illustrated by the following examples and comparative examples. It should be noted that in the following examples and comparative examples, the xanthan gum used is Fufeng brand, purchased from Shanghai National Trade Commodity City; the aspartic acid is Guo Yao Reagent brand, purchased from Ba Si Yi Laboratory Supply City; and the skimmed milk powder is Scientific Phygene brand test special type PH1519, purchased from Walidasi Experimental Reagent and Consumable Store.

[0040] Example 1

[0041] The example provides a soil site crack biological repair agent, and the raw materials are as follows in terms of mass percentage: carbonic anhydrase solution 21.038%, skimmed milk powder 0.07%, xanthan gum 0.018%, aspartic acid 0.018%, active magnesium oxide 5.615%, sodium bicarbonate 2.948%, straw fiber 0.105%, site soil powder 28.075%, and fine sand 42.113%.

[0042] The carbonic anhydrase is extracted from Gracilaria Venerabilis, the particle sizes of the skimmed milk powder, the xanthan gum and the aspartic acid are all less than 0.075 mm, and the content of the magnesium oxide in the active magnesium oxide is not less than 95%. The length of the straw fiber ranges from 10 mm to 40 mm, and the diameter ranges from 1 mm to 2 mm. The site soil powder is obtained by drying, crushing and grinding the same soil as the repaired soil site to 0.075 mm aperture sieve, and the particle size of the fine sand ranges from 0.075 mm to 0.25 mm.

[0043] The example also provides a method for repairing soil site cracks by using the soil site crack biological repair agent, which comprises the following steps:

[0044] (1) Clear the cracks of the earthen site. Use a fan or a vacuum cleaner to clean the cracks of the earthen site without damaging the earthen site, so as to clean the sundries in the cracks of the earthen site and avoid the sundries affecting the filling and repairing effect in the later stage.

[0045] (2) Extract the carbonic anhydrase solution. First, weigh 0.3-1 g of string-like Gracilaria lemaneiformis, put it into a pre-cooled mortar, add liquid nitrogen to grind thoroughly, then add 5 mL of barbital buffer to mix uniformly, and then centrifuge in a centrifuge to obtain the carbonic anhydrase solution. The activity of the carbonic anhydrase solution is not less than 2000 kU / L.

[0046] (3) Add skimmed milk powder, xanthan gum, aspartic acid and sodium bicarbonate to the carbonic anhydrase solution to stir and dissolve, to prepare a reinforced carbonic anhydrase solution; mix straw fibers, site soil powder and fine sand uniformly to prepare a solid filler.

[0047] (4) Mix the reinforced carbonic anhydrase solution with the solid filler uniformly to prepare the earthen site crack biological repair agent. The earthen site crack biological repair agent is not suitable for extremely high temperature environment, which may cause the inactivation of carbonic anhydrase and affect the solidification effect.

[0048] (5) Fill the cracks and maintain, and the specific construction process is as follows:

[0049] As shown in Figure 2 , the biological repair agent and the gas injection pipe 2 with a gas injection hole 1 in the side wall are filled into the cracks 3, so that the top of the gas injection pipe 2 is flush with the surface of the earthen site, and the inside of the gas injection pipe 2 is not filled; after filling, carbon dioxide gas is injected through the gas injection pipe 2, so that the carbon dioxide gas diffuses into the soil through the gas injection hole 1. Then the gas injection pipe 2 is filled with the biological repair agent, the surface is leveled, and the site is repaired after curing for 72 hours. The volume concentration of the injected carbon dioxide gas is 80%-100%, the injection rate is 2L / min-5L / min, and the injection time is maintained for 60 min. The curing time should be at least 72 hours to achieve better solidification effect.

[0050] It should be noted that the operation time of filling the earthen site crack biological repair agent in step (5) should not exceed 1 hour, so as to avoid the rapid solidification of the earthen site crack biological repair agent and affect the subsequent filling.
