Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of solid waste treatment, and in particular to a method for filling beet sugar factory filter mud and beet soil in a mine pit of an open pit quarry. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, the double carbonic acid method is used in the method for producing sugar from beets. After the beets are cleaned, washed, sliced, and leached, lime milk filtered and slaked is added to the leached juice containing sugar, and after reaction, carbon dioxide gas (kiln gas) is introduced for neutralization. After neutralization, calcium carbonate (a component of filter mud) mud juice is obtained, which is filtered by a diaphragm plate frame, washed, and pressurized (3.5 air compressions) to remove the filter mud containing 60%-65% water. For a sugar factory using beets as raw material, 1.1-1.2 tons of filter mud is produced per 100 tons of beets. The main component of filter mud is calcium carbonate, which contains a small amount of organic matter. If left untreated, the water in the filter mud will overflow. At present, filter mud from a beet sugar factory cannot be directly utilized in large quantities. Filter mud has small particles, low specific gravity, strong adsorption, and is easy to dry and disperse to form dust, making it difficult to handle and utilize. Filter mud is an inorganic waste that is odorless, tasteless, and does not produce gas, which is different from tailings, construction waste, and household waste.

[0003] Beets are irregular cones. Beets have two root grooves, and root hairs grow in the root grooves. Some of the root hairs are broken off and fall off during harvesting, and some remain attached to the beet root. The root hairs of beets have secretions that stick to the soil brought in from the field in the root grooves. Before beets are transported from the field to the factory, the soil adhering to the beets and the intermingled soil between the beets cannot be completely cleaned. A portion of the soil is removed mechanically before the beets are washed in the workshop. After the beets are washed, the sediment and collected mud and sand are also beet soil. For every 100 tons of beets produced, 2-3 tons of beet soil is produced. If it rains or snows during the purchase period, more soil will adhere to the beet tubers. This beet soil also needs to be removed from the factory for disposal. In addition to having the characteristics of a suitable plant growth layer of soil, beet soil also has a certain degree of stickiness, which can be used to cover filter mud, has the functions of water storage and retention, dust prevention, erosion reduction, and environmental protection.
