Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of red mud soil remediation, and in particular to a red mud soil treatment method. Background Art

[0002] Red mud, also known as red mud, is one of the unique soil types in my country. Because it is rich in metal oxides such as iron, aluminum, and manganese, it is red or reddish brown, hence the name red mud. Red mud soil has high fertility and is suitable for the growth of crops. However, in recent years, due to the acceleration of human activities, industrialization, and urbanization, red mud soil is facing serious ecological and environmental problems. Heavy metal elements in red mud soil have gradually accumulated in the process of industrialization, leading to increasingly serious soil pollution problems. These heavy metal elements can enter the human body through the food chain, posing a potential threat to human health. In addition, problems such as organic pollutants and pesticide residues in red mud soil are also prominent. The over-exploitation and utilization of red mud soil has led to a gradual decline in soil fertility. On the one hand, unreasonable agricultural planting methods have caused an imbalance in soil nutrients and destroyed the structure of microbial communities; on the other hand, soil erosion, soil erosion, and other phenomena have intensified, further weakening the fertility of the soil.

[0003] CN116675582A discloses a red mud soil conditioner and its preparation method, and a red mud soil repair and treatment method. The red mud soil conditioner is obtained by mixing and stirring a nutrient additive, a desalination and alkali conditioner, a water retaining agent, a biological fertilizer, a bentonite, and a straw composting agent; the red mud soil repair and treatment method of the invention comprises the following steps: harrowing and watering the red mud soil to obtain pre-treated red mud soil; mixing the pre-treated red mud soil with the above-mentioned red mud soil conditioner to obtain improved red mud soil; sowing plant seeds on the surface of the improved red mud soil. After the red mud soil is repaired, the soil porosity, field water holding capacity and other properties are better, but the method does not retain the nutrients in the red mud soil, which is not conducive to plant growth.

[0004] CN111837494B discloses a method for soil pore transformation of red mud, which sequentially generates micro capillary pore cavities with plant powder (straw powder, wood powder, rice husk, wheat husk), generates medium or above capillary pore cavities and block ventilation pore cavities with plant block (peanut shell, crushed corn cob), generates linear ventilation pore cavities with wheat straw, and finally forms a three-level pore connection system suitable for plant growth. Although this method can improve the ventilation pores in red mud and is conducive to plant growth, it does not retain the nutrients in the red mud soil, which is not conducive to the long-term growth of plants.

[0030] In this recipe, the ingredients and their functions are as follows:

[0031] Sodium alginate: Sodium alginate is non-toxic, easily degradable, and low in cost. 2+ The properties of sodium alginate such as the interaction of divalent metal cations to prepare gel balls are widely used in soil remediation. In soil remediation, sodium alginate can be used as a soil stabilizer and chelating agent to improve the soil. Sodium alginate can easily form a thin film on the soil surface, which can significantly improve the compressive strength of the soil. At the same time, it can accelerate the restoration of arid and semi-arid soils by biocrust technology and promote the growth of plants such as cyanobacteria on sandy land. Microspheres loaded with humic acid were prepared by using sodium alginate as a carrier, and biochar was used to improve the slow-release performance, in order to enhance the utilization efficiency of sodium alginate-based soil conditioners and extend their use time.

[0032] Humic acid: Humic acid is a soil conditioner that promotes the formation of soil aggregate structure, improves soil fertility, promotes nutrient absorption, and stabilizes the soil. However, humic acid loses water and exerts its effect in a short time. High concentrations of humic acid can also affect the growth and development of crops. Modified sodium alginate is used as a carrier to provide a sustained release effect, which plays a key role in maintaining the long-term presence of humic acid in the soil and maximizing its effectiveness.

[0033] Biochar: Biochar is often used as a highly effective soil conditioner due to its large specific surface area, rich pore structure and multiple surface functional groups. It can effectively adsorb soil pollutants, improve soil physical and chemical properties, increase crop yields and soil carbon storage. After applying biochar, the soil bulk density decreased and the porosity increased, which may be due to the aggregation process induced by the addition of biochar.

[0034] Modifier: The modifier contains hydrazide functional groups, which can react with functional groups in sodium alginate to modify the sodium alginate, so that the sodium alginate is grafted with hydrazide groups. The hydrazide groups in the modified sodium alginate react with the carbonyl groups in the modified polyethylene glycol to obtain acylhydrazone bonds to obtain modified sodium alginate. This reaction is often carried out under mild conditions. This acylhydrazone bond cross-linked hydrogel usually has self-healing properties, temperature sensitivity and pH responsiveness.

[0035] 1-(3-Dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride: 1-(3-Dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride is a commonly used carboxylic acid activator, which can react with the carboxyl group in the sodium alginate molecule to form an active ester intermediate. This process is called carboxylic acid activation and is an important step in the subsequent reaction of sodium alginate and modifiers.

[0036] Grafting agent: The grafting agent is a compound containing carbonyl and carboxyl functional groups. The carboxyl functional group in the grafting agent can react with the hydroxyl group in polyethylene glycol, so that the grafted polymer contains a carbonyl functional group, and the carbonyl functional group can react with the amide group to obtain an acylhydrazone bond, thereby preparing modified sodium alginate.

[0037] Dimethyl sulfoxide: Dimethyl sulfoxide is a polar organic solvent that can dissolve a variety of organic substances.

[0038] Polyethylene glycol: Polyethylene glycol has the advantages of hydrophilicity and good biocompatibility. The carboxyl functional groups contained in the grafting agent are reacted with polyethylene glycol to modify polyethylene glycol, so as to exert the biological function of polyethylene glycol hydrogel.

[0039] Grafting agent: The grafting agent contains carboxyl and carbonyl functional groups. The grafting agent can modify the polyethylene glycol molecules and increase the diversity of the polyethylene glycol molecules.

[0040] 4-Dimethylaminopyridine: 4-Dimethylaminopyridine acts as a catalyst and has a catalytic effect.

[0041] Tetrahydrofuran: Tetrahydrofuran is a polar organic solvent that can dissolve a variety of organic substances, including polyethylene glycol, grafting agents, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, etc. This allows these compounds to mix and react thoroughly in solution.

[0042] Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide: Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide is a commonly used dehydrating agent, which can react with carboxylic acid or hydroxyl groups in the grafting agent to remove water, thereby promoting the grafting reaction. At a temperature of -2°C to 2°C, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide is mixed with the grafting agent to form a new mixture, which is then added to the grafting mixture to accelerate the grafting reaction.

[0043] Diethyl ether: Diethyl ether is a non-polar organic solvent that is compatible with organic matter in tetrahydrofuran and is used to extract water-soluble products from tetrahydrofuran. By adding diethyl ether dropwise and filtering, white products can be obtained, which are water-soluble and insoluble in diethyl ether. After dissolving the white product in tetrahydrofuran, the product can be further purified to remove impurities by settling and repeating the operation.

[0044] Nutritional additives: As one of the basic raw materials, the main function of nutritional additives is to provide the nutrients needed for plant growth, promote plant growth and the recovery of soil ecosystems.

[0045] Desalination and alkali conditioner: The main function of desalination and alkali conditioner is to adjust the pH value of the soil and remove salt from the soil, thereby improving the chemical properties of the soil.

[0046] Fertilizer: As one of the basic raw materials, fertilizer mainly provides necessary nutrients for plant growth, promotes plant growth and the recovery of soil ecosystem. The preferred fertilizer of the present invention is organic fertilizer.

[0047] Bentonite: Bentonite has strong water absorption and expansion properties, which can increase the porosity of the soil, improve the air permeability and water permeability of the soil, and is beneficial to the growth of plant roots.

[0048] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0049] 1. Compared with the prior art, sodium alginate modified by a modifier is reacted with a Schiff base of a carbonyl-terminated polyethylene glycol preparation to prepare an acylhydrazone bond cross-linked polymer, and then humic acid is coated with the polymer to prepare modified sodium alginate microspheres, and then the modified sodium alginate microspheres are mixed with biochar to obtain a soil conditioner, and finally the soil conditioner is used for red mud soil remediation.

[0050] 2. The soil conditioner prepared by using modified sodium alginate, humic acid and biochar is beneficial to improving the red mud soil repair capacity and the slow-release performance of humic acid; first, the coating material can effectively reduce the influence of environmental factors such as water and air; second, it realizes the persistence of soil nutrient utilization and reduces the number of times pesticides and conditioners are applied; third, it reduces the pesticide damage caused by excessive pesticide concentration. Therefore, slow / controlled release technology can not only improve the utilization efficiency of soil nutrients, but also reduce labor costs and realize the controlled release of soil nutrients.

[0088] Test Example 1

[0089] Red mud soil slow-release performance test: 350 rose seedlings with similar growth status were divided into 7 groups, each with 50 pots, and planted with red mud soil prepared in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-2 of the same mass, and the growth period (branch length), flower bud differentiation period (number of flower buds), and flowering period (days) were recorded. The results are shown in Table 1:

[0092] Test Example 2

[0093] Water resistance refers to the ability of a material to resist water damage. The longer the particles remain in the water, the stronger the water resistance. Weigh 5.0 g of the red mud soil of Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-2 into a 250 mL beaker, add 150 mL of deionized water, place in a constant temperature biochemical incubator at 25°C, and closely observe the dissolution of the soil particles. The results are recorded in Table 2.

[0096] Test Example 3

[0097] Red mud soil improvement performance test:

[0098] Humus content detection: The red mud soil repaired and treated in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-2 was tested for humus content in accordance with the detection method in NY / T1867-2010 "Determination of soil humus composition".

[0099] Nitrogen element determination: 10 g of the red mud soil produced in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-2 were weighed, respectively, and each was soaked in 250 g of clean water and placed in a constant temperature box at 25° C. The nitrogen element dissolution rate was determined according to GB / T23348-2009 standard at 24 h and 14 d. The test results are shown in Table 3:

[0100] Table 3 Soil improvement performance test

[0101]

[0102] Through the test data results in test examples 1-3 and Tables 1 to 3, it can be found that the water resistance, humic acid slow-release performance and red mud soil improvement effect of the red mud soil treated in Example 1 are the best. Biodegradability generally refers to reducing the content of harmful substances (such as heavy metals, alkaline substances, etc.) in the soil through microbial activity, improving soil structure and fertility. By increasing the activity of microorganisms through soil conditioners, while decomposing harmful substances in red mud, they may also participate in the conversion process of nitrogen, thereby improving the dissolution rate and utilization efficiency of nitrogen. Therefore, a high nitrogen dissolution rate can also show good biodegradability.

[0103] Comparing the data of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Example 1, it is found that the differences between the data are quite obvious, which may be due to the use of different modifiers. First, the modifier contains a hydrazide group, which can modify sodium alginate, and a grafting agent containing both carbonyl and carboxyl functional groups can modify polyethylene glycol. Finally, the modified sodium alginate containing a hydrazide group is reacted and cross-linked with the modified polyethylene glycol containing a carbonyl group to prepare modified sodium alginate. The reaction principle is that the functional carbonyl reacts with the hydrazide compound to form a dynamic acylhydrazone bond. This reaction can often be carried out under mild conditions, and the yield is very high. In order to accelerate the reaction, an appropriate amount of acid is usually added to catalyze the reaction. Under weak acid solution or high temperature catalysis, the acylhydrazone bond will reversibly break, showing temperature and pH correspondence, and thus can adjust the pH of red mud soil. The coordination ability of acylhydrazone compounds may help metal ions in the soil to form more stable complexes or precipitates with organic matter, minerals, etc., thereby improving the structure and texture of the soil. This helps reduce soil heaviness and improves soil aeration and water retention capacity.

[0104] In addition to containing hydrazide groups, the modifier in Example 1 also has a long alkyl carbon chain, which is a hydrophobic monomer that can provide hydrophobic groups, and can achieve hydrophobic interactions in the modified alginate hydrogel. The corresponding polymer chains are prone to hydrophobic interactions. At the same time, the longer side groups of stearic hydrazide aggravate the physical entanglement between the macromolecular chains of modified sodium alginate. Therefore, under the multiple physical effects of hydrophobic interactions and chain entanglements, the prepared red mud soil has a good hydrophobic effect. At the same time, the modified sodium alginate is coated with humic acid to prepare microspheres, and then mixed with biochar to obtain a soil conditioner. The humic acid inclusions are regulated and controlled to a certain extent before release and conversion, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the loss of inclusions, improving their utilization, extending the use time and controlling release. Among the advantages, on the one hand, the modified sodium alginate coating material can effectively reduce the influence of environmental factors such as water and air; second, it realizes the persistence of soil nutrient utilization and reduces the number of applications of pesticides and improvers; third, it reduces the pesticide damage caused by excessive pesticide concentration and realizes the controlled release of soil nutrients. The use of biochar can significantly reduce the pesticide residues in the soil, and with the increase in the amount of biochar, the adsorption effect is significantly enhanced, which has a good repair effect on red mud soil. Therefore, the water resistance, soil nutrient slow release effect and soil repair effect of the red mud soil in Example 1 are the best.

[0105] Comparing the data in the tables of Example 1, Examples 4-5 and Comparative Example 2, it is found that the data are different, and the reason for these differences may be that different grafting agents are used. The main function of the grafting agent is to modify the polyethylene glycol, that is, the carboxyl group in the grafting agent reacts with the hydroxyl group of the polyethylene glycol. The modified polyethylene glycol also contains a carbonyl group, and the carbonyl group can react with the hydrazide group in the modified sodium alginate to obtain an acylhydrazone group. In addition to the carbonyl and carboxyl functional groups participating in the reaction, the 2-[(2-formylphenyl) dithio]-benzoic acid in Example 1 also contains a disulfide bond group. The introduction of a disulfide bond in the natural polymer modified sodium alginate molecular gel can often accelerate the degradation of the hydrogel and show good biodegradability. In the remediation of red mud soil, the introduction of a disulfide bond makes the red mud soil in Example 1 have good biodegradability. This can enhance the recovery of soil ecosystems during red mud soil remediation. By improving the physical and chemical properties of the soil, providing nutrients and a suitable living environment, it can support the growth and reproduction of plants and microorganisms, thereby accelerating the ecological restoration process of the red mud dump.
