Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of phosphogypsum resource utilization, and in particular to ecological soil prepared by utilizing phosphogypsum and a method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Phosphogypsum is an acidic solid waste produced by the wet phosphoric acid process. Its main component is calcium sulfate dihydrate, and it also contains arsenic, cadmium, lead, chromium, mercury, thallium, F - Therefore, storing and disposing of phosphogypsum not only consumes significant land resources but also causes secondary environmental pollution. Currently, the largest volume of phosphogypsum is being utilized and consumed in the production of building materials. However, as market demand for building materials decreases, the consumption of phosphogypsum is gradually decreasing, creating a need for new disposal methods.

[0003] Phosphogypsum contains nutrients such as calcium, phosphorus, and sulfur required for plant growth. Using it in mine management and ecological restoration can meet certain ecological needs. For example, patent application number 202110685016.0 discloses that solid waste slag is crushed and mixed with cohesive and adhesive clay to form a solid waste slag powder adhesive. The clay is an organic composite soil with colloidal characteristics; the clay is derived from sludge, silt, sediment, etc. Gypsum, phosphogypsum, fly ash, or coal gangue are also added to the solid waste slag powder adhesive to solve the technical problem that the solid waste slag powder does not have soil properties.

[0004] Another example: Patent application number 202311389019.5 discloses the use of solid waste coal gangue and phosphogypsum to transform rocky desertification into black soil, with the mixed uncured modified phosphogypsum C2 material as the cementitious solidifying material, and the mixture is mixed in a mass ratio of B1 material: C2 material of 30-70:70-30, laid on the rocky desertification land and compacted, with a thickness of 200-2000mm, to form a modified phosphogypsum shale gangue layer, named "greenable concrete" layer, which constitutes a stable layer for transforming "rocky desertification land" into "black soil"; the curing and recrystallization characteristics of the modified phosphogypsum not only meet the requirements of the stability and anti-penetration of the bottom layer of the rocky desertification land, but also ensure that the plant roots can grab the elements such as phosphorus, sulfur, calcium, magnesium, and potassium in the phosphogypsum, and can also ensure that the plant roots are fully extended to the longitudinal stone interlayer below.

[0005] However, due to the poor pH value, bulk density, water retention, air permeability, electrical conductivity, salt content and other soil property indicators of phosphogypsum, it is not suitable for use in mine management and ecological restoration to repair topsoil, that is, it cannot be directly used as ecological soil. Summary of the Invention

At the same time, coal gangue is crushed and mixed with biological matrix and composite microbial agent, and then aged to prepare additives. The additives are then mixed with the modified particles and aged to obtain ecological soil, which enhances the soil properties, enhances the stable solidification of free heavy metals in the ecological soil, and reduces the mobility of heavy metals.
