Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of soil remediation, and in particular, to a selenium-rich slow-release silicon fertilizer, a preparation method thereof, and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] As a solid waste inevitably generated during coal mining and processing, coal gangue has a complex composition, mainly including kaolinite, quartz, coal or organic matter, and other mineral impurities. These mountains of coal gangue not only occupy a large amount of land resources, but also, over time, its natural processes such as weathering and leaching, as well as possible spontaneous combustion phenomena, may trigger a series of environmental pollution problems, such as air pollution and ecological damage. In view of this, the resource utilization of coal gangue is particularly urgent and important. In recent years, the industry has been actively exploring how to turn coal gangue into treasure to realize its resource value.

[0003] In the practice of modern agricultural production, selenium fertilizer and silicon fertilizer have become indispensable trace element fertilizers, which play a crucial role in increasing crop yield and improving quality. Specifically, as an essential trace element in the life activities of plants and animals, the function of selenium is not only limited to meeting basic physiological needs, but more importantly, it can significantly enhance the stress resistance of crops, such as cold resistance, drought resistance, and disease resistance, thus ensuring the normal growth and development of crops under adverse conditions; at the same time, selenium can also improve the quality of agricultural products, such as increasing the protein content of food crops, enhancing the color and taste of fruits, etc., thereby enhancing the market value of agricultural products and the acceptance of consumers; in addition, selenium fertilizer can also reduce the heavy metal content of crops and reduce the risk of heavy metal migration by improving the soil environment, realizing the safe utilization of heavy metal-contaminated farmland. On the other hand, although silicon is not an essential element for plant growth, it plays an important role in plants. It can promote the photosynthesis of crops, improve the photosynthetic efficiency by enhancing the structure and function of chloroplasts, and thus promote the absorption and conversion of light energy by plants; at the same time, silicon can also significantly enhance the disease resistance and stress resistance of crops, such as resisting the invasion of fungal and bacterial diseases, reducing the use of pesticides, and reducing the pressure on the environment caused by agricultural production; moreover, the presence of silicon can also improve the stem strength of crops, prevent lodging, and improve the drought tolerance and salt tolerance of crops, which is of great significance for stabilizing agricultural production.

[0004] However, traditional fertilizers including selenium fertilizers and silicon fertilizers often have the problem of one-time release during application, which means that the nutrient elements in the fertilizers are released in large quantities in a short period of time, while crops cannot fully absorb and utilize these nutrients. This release pattern not only leads to the waste of nutrient elements, reduces the utilization rate of fertilizers, but also excessive nutrients will enter water bodies and soil through runoff, infiltration and other ways, causing environmental pollution and increasing the risks of water eutrophication and soil salinization. Therefore, how to improve the utilization efficiency of trace elements in fertilizers and reduce environmental pollution has become an urgent problem to be solved in the sustainable development of agriculture.

[0005] Slow-release fertilizers are an important solution to the above problems; through special coating technologies or chemical modification methods, slow-release fertilizers can control the release rate and duration of nutrients in fertilizers, making them match the growth needs of crops, so as to achieve the efficient utilization of nutrients and reduce environmental pollution. Especially in the application of selenium fertilizers and silicon fertilizers, slow-release technologies can ensure the stable supply of these two important trace elements during the crop growth cycle, maximizing their effects of promoting growth and improving quality.

[0006] In view of this, the present invention is specifically proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The first object of the present invention is to provide a preparation method of selenium-rich slow-release silicon fertilizer, on the one hand, to provide a high-efficiency and high-value resource utilization channel for coal gangue, and on the other hand, to provide a selenium-silicon composite fertilizer with good slow-release effect and low cost.

[0008] The second object of the present invention is to provide a fertilizer with good selenium slow-release effect.

[0009] The third object of the present invention is to provide a resource treatment method for coal gangue to turn waste into treasure and realize the economic recycling of waste.

[0010] In order to achieve the above objects of the present invention, the following technical solutions are specifically adopted:

[0011] A preparation method of selenium-rich slow-release silicon fertilizer includes the following steps:

[0012] Prepare a mixed solution containing coal gangue, selenite and slaked lime, and obtain a solid material after sufficient dispersion, solid-liquid separation and drying;

[0013] Fully mix the solid material with magnesite ore, and then conduct high-temperature roasting to obtain selenium-rich slow-release silicon fertilizer.

[0014] A fertilizer includes the selenium-rich slow-release silicon fertilizer prepared by the preparation method of the selenium-rich slow-release silicon fertilizer.

[0015] A resource utilization method for coal gangue, including the preparation method of the selenium-rich slow-release silicon fertilizer described above.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0017] (1) The present invention provides a method for preparing selenium-rich slow-release silicon fertilizer using coal gangue. This method realizes the resource utilization of coal gangue. By efficiently using this silicate coal gangue as a raw material, it provides a new way for the treatment of solid waste, increases its economic value, and conforms to the concepts of circular economy and sustainable development.

[0018] (2) The selenium-rich silicon fertilizer with a slow-release effect prepared by the present invention has controllable slow-release performance. At the same time, by adjusting the types of raw materials of magnesite, the addition amount, and the calcination conditions, it can meet the growth requirements of different target crops, which helps to improve the stress resistance, yield, and quality of crops, and has a positive impact on agricultural production.

[0019] (3) The selenium-rich slow-release silicon fertilizer of the present invention or a fertilizer product containing the selenium-rich slow-release silicon fertilizer realizes the stepwise dissolution of selenium and silicon by adopting innovative selenium fixation technology and coal gangue passivation technology. Specifically, the present invention promotes the formation of selenate (SeO4 2- ) through the alkalinity of slaked lime. Its solubility is lower than that of selenite, reducing the mobility of selenium. Further, during high-temperature calcination, after the coal gangue and magnesite are mixed, silicate mineral reconstruction occurs. Selenium replaces sulfur or oxygen in the silicate lattice in the form of isomorphous substitution to form a selenium silicate complex (such as CaSeO3·SiO2), thereby achieving long-term slow release. At the same time, after the coal gangue and slaked lime are mixed, the slaked lime provides alkalinity. When subsequently mixed and calcined with magnesite, the hydroxide of magnesium and the silicate mineral form a stable vitreous structure under high-temperature conditions, which also improves the slow-release property. In addition, the importance of this stepwise release mechanism is that it can ensure the slow and continuous release of selenium and silicon elements during the growth process of crops, thereby improving the absorption efficiency of these two elements by crops and reducing the loss of elements and environmental pollution.
