Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of soil improvement, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a plant cultivation composite substrate for realizing the reuse of solid waste. Background Art
[0002] Coal gangue is a solid waste in the process of coal mining and washing. Fly ash mainly comes from the industrial waste residue discharged from the coal powder boilers of thermal power plants. Straw contains elements such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, calcium and sulfur, which are essential nutrient elements for biological growth. Straw can improve the soil structure, enhance the soil's self-regulating ability of water, fertilizer, air and heat, and optimize the soil environment.
[0003] Biochar is a type of functional carbon material, and its main constituent elements are C, H, and O. Common raw materials include sludge waste, feces, agricultural and forestry waste. Biochar can increase the pH of the soil and the concentrations of available phosphorus, available potassium and available magnesium, and at the same time can improve soil fertility, improve soil physical and chemical properties, increase crop yields, adsorb various pollutants and improve the bioavailability of soil nutrient elements.
[0004] Sludge contains a large amount of organic matter, nitrogen, phosphorus and other nutrient elements, and has high value. It can be used as a soil conditioner and fertilizer, which helps to improve soil fertility and crop yields. However, the composition of sludge is complex, and it may contain harmful substances such as heavy metals, viruses, and parasite eggs. If not properly disposed of, it will not only cause waste of resources, but also cause environmental pollution. The harmful substances in sludge may pollute groundwater and the atmosphere due to rain erosion and percolation, causing secondary pollution and harm to the environment and human health.
[0005] Therefore, the resource utilization of these waste materials conforms to the concept of resource recycling, can reduce the treatment cost, and reduce the pressure on the environment. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a preparation method of a plant cultivation composite substrate for realizing the reuse of solid waste, which can repair barren soil, improve the soil structure, and at the same time realize the resource utilization of mining waste.
[0007] The technical solution adopted by the present invention is:
[0008] A plant cultivation composite substrate for realizing the reuse of solid waste is composed of coal gangue, fly ash, biochar, activated sludge and barren soil.
[0009] Further, for the above-mentioned plant cultivation composite substrate for realizing the reuse of solid waste, the mass ratio of the coal gangue to the activated sludge is 5:8.
[0010] Furthermore, for the above plant cultivation composite substrate for realizing solid waste recycling, by mass percentage, the plant cultivation composite substrate is composed of 17.31% coal gangue, 10% fly ash, 5% biochar, 27.69% activated sludge, and 40% barren soil.
[0011] Furthermore, for the above plant cultivation composite substrate for realizing solid waste recycling, the pretreatment method of the coal gangue is: crushing and grinding the large coal gangue into a powder.
[0012] Furthermore, for the above plant cultivation composite substrate for realizing solid waste recycling, the fly ash is in powder form.
[0013] Furthermore, for the above plant cultivation composite substrate for realizing solid waste recycling, the activated sludge is the excess sludge from the secondary sedimentation tank of a municipal wastewater treatment plant.
[0014] Furthermore, for the above plant cultivation composite substrate for realizing solid waste recycling, the pretreatment method of the activated sludge is: drying and grinding the activated sludge, and passing it through a 2 mm sieve.
[0015] Furthermore, for the above plant cultivation composite substrate for realizing solid waste recycling, the pretreatment method of the barren soil is: air-drying the barren soil and passing it through a 2 mm sieve.
[0016] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0017] 1. The present invention proposes a preparation method of a plant cultivation composite substrate for realizing solid waste recycling. This substrate is simple to manufacture, low in cost, and has application prospects.
[0018] 2. In the present invention, the acidity and alkalinity of the coal gangue and various trace elements and nutrients contained therein can increase the fertilizer efficiency of the soil. The nutrient elements and trace elements contained in the fly ash provide conditions for the growth of plant roots. At the same time, the activated sludge supplements the essential nutrient elements such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium for plant growth, and the biochar can increase soil air, looseness, and water retention capacity. By mixing the barren soil with the above components, the soil fertility can be effectively improved, and the missing nutrient elements in the barren soil can be supplemented; experiments show that the growth of plants has been greatly improved, proving that the substrate of the present invention is effective and reliable.
[0019] 3. The main components of the present invention are solid wastes such as coal gangue. Resource utilization of them can effectively alleviate the problems of occupying a large amount of land and polluting the environment; solid wastes such as coal gangue and fly ash are low in cost, reducing the economic cost, and having high economic and environmental benefits.
