Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of acidic soil remediation, and in particular relates to a high-efficiency green improver for acidic soil. Background Art

[0002] The phenomenon of agricultural soil acidification is common in southern my country. After the soil is acidified, it not only affects the solubility of mineral elements in the soil and the balance of plant absorption of nutrients, but also the structure of soil microbial communities has changed significantly, directly affecting the yield and quality of plants. In this regard, researchers have used physical, chemical, and biological methods to explore the improvement of acidic soils, and found that improvers such as alkali residue, biochar, and lime have a good effect on improving acidic tobacco field soils, and the soil pH value and metal elements such as calcium and magnesium have been significantly improved. Improvers can effectively increase the pH value of acidic soils and promote the increase of crop yields. They have the dual effects of nutrition and soil improvement. They have better improvement effects on the physical and chemical properties of acidic soils.

[0003] Among them, the raw materials of biochar are very abundant, including agricultural waste (such as straw, rice straw, corn stalks), forestry waste (such as sawdust, sycamore wood chips), etc. These wastes are usually easy to obtain and can be converted into valuable biochar resources. Although biochar has the ability to remove heavy metal pollutants, unmodified biochar is easily affected by raw materials, production methods and production environment, and due to the surface charge and active sites of biochar, the adsorption capacity of biochar for ions is limited. Therefore, compared with biochar, modified biochar may have a stronger removal rate for soil heavy metal cadmium and a better soil improvement effect. Therefore, how to modify biochar and apply it to improve acidic soil is the research focus of the present invention. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the invention is to provide a high-efficiency green improver for acidic soil.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the specific process of the present invention is as follows:

[0006] A highly efficient green improver for acidic soil, wherein biochar is modified by an in-situ precipitation method: first, 1-5 parts of a modified substance are dissolved in 180 parts of an acetic acid solution with a mass fraction of 2%, then 3 parts of original biochar are added to the solution, the mixture is stirred at a rotation speed of 200-300 rpm for 30 minutes, then it is added dropwise to 900 parts of a NaOH solution with a mass fraction of 1.2% and allowed to stand for 12 hours, then it is washed with deionized water to remove excess NaOH, and then the modified biochar mixed material is spread on a ceramic tray and dried in an oven at 70°C for 24 hours, then crushed, and passed through a 100-mesh sieve for standby use.

[0007] Wherein, the modified substance is carboxymethyl pachymaran.

[0008] Among them, the original biochar also includes a preparation method: prepare dry rice husks, use a grinder to crush them into powder, pyrolyze the biomass powder sieved through a 60-mesh nylon screen at 500°C in a muffle furnace for 2 hours, and then crush the biochar again, pass it through a 100-mesh sieve, and then wash the sieved biochar powder with deionized water 2-3 times to remove impurities such as ash, and then place the biochar sample at 80° to dry to obtain the original biochar.

[0009] The application of the above-mentioned acidic soil conditioner in acidic soil improvement is as follows: the above-mentioned acidic soil conditioner is mixed into acidic soil at a mass ratio of 0.5% to 5% of the acidic soil conditioner to the acidic soil.

[0010] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0011] 1. The acidic soil conditioner of the present invention has significant advantages. First, the porous structure and high specific surface area of ​​the modified biochar can improve the physical properties of the soil, increase the water retention capacity and porosity of the soil, and thus provide a good environment for plant growth. Secondly, it can increase the pH value of the soil, alleviate soil acidification, and promote crop growth. In addition, biochar itself is rich in nutrient elements, such as phosphorus, potassium, calcium, etc. These nutrients can be directly input into the soil to improve soil fertility. At the same time, modified biochar can improve the structure of soil microbial communities, increase the number and activity of beneficial microorganisms, and thus improve the overall health of the soil.

[0012] 2. Carboxymethyl tuckahoe polysaccharide is an important natural polymer compound, and its chemical structure contains multiple carboxymethyl and polysaccharide groups. Biochar itself is alkaline, and carboxymethyl tuckahoe polysaccharide contains abundant carboxymethyl and polysaccharide groups, which can enhance the alkalinity of biochar. Carboxymethyl tuckahoe polysaccharide has good electrical conductivity. When it fills the pores of biochar, it not only improves the conductivity of the material, but also enhances the interfacial adhesion of the material and improves the conductive pathway of biochar.

[0013] 3. Biochar itself increases the EC value of soil through lime effect, etc., and after modification with carboxymethyl tuckahoe polysaccharide, the conductivity of biochar is further enhanced, which can more effectively promote the adsorption of basic ions by the soil and further improve the EC of the soil.

[0014] 4. The rich functional groups in the carboxymethyl tuckahoe polysaccharide molecules can effectively enhance the adsorption performance of biochar. In particular, these functional groups can interact with ions in the soil to enhance the adsorption capacity of trace elements such as amino, copper, zinc, and iron, which helps to improve the effectiveness of nutrients in the soil. Biochar modified with carboxymethyl tuckahoe polysaccharide can effectively reduce the volatilization of ammonia and help reduce the loss of nutrients such as N and P in the soil. Its rich surface functional groups provide attachment points for ions such as NH4, NO3, and PO4 in the soil, promoting nutrient retention. Biochar modified with carboxymethyl tuckahoe polysaccharide can increase the nitrogen content in the soil, improve the CN balance of the soil, and promote the growth of beneficial microorganisms. In addition, carboxymethyl tuckahoe polysaccharide also has certain antibacterial properties, which can effectively inhibit the growth of some pathogens, thereby providing a better growth environment for beneficial microorganisms and further improving the enzyme activity and microbial diversity in the soil. The porous structure of biochar itself provides a rich habitat and reaction substrate for soil microorganisms, enhancing the biomass of microorganisms. Through filling and modification, carboxymethyl pachymaran not only enhances the physical properties of biochar, but also promotes the circulation of soil nutrients and the improvement of soil fertility.
