Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of ecological restoration environmental dust suppressants, and specifically relates to a method and application of an eco-friendly dust suppressant prepared by multi-component compounding of herbs. Background Art

[0002] Construction sites, mines, roads, and other locations generate large amounts of dust, which not only severely impacts air quality but also harms public health. For example, people exposed to high concentrations of dust over a long period of time are susceptible to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. Furthermore, dust can damage the surrounding environment, affecting plant growth and ecosystem balance. Therefore, there is an urgent need for effective dust suppression technologies to control dust pollution.

[0003] To date, a wide variety of dust suppression methods exist, including traditional watering and the installation of dust nets. During the development and industrial testing of moisturizing dust suppressants for truck roads in the Northern Open-Pit Coal Mine, it was found that while watering is simple and easy to use in open-pit coal mines, it can cause secondary or repeated dusting as the water evaporates. Watering alone is not only inefficient but also wastes water resources. While dust nets offer significant advantages in open-pit soil due to their ease of operation, they differ significantly from traditional watering methods in that they require significant manpower and resources to install, and face challenges such as net recovery, which also presents significant inconveniences.

[0004] Dust suppression agents are more effective than water spraying and laying dust-proof nets, but spraying dust suppressants can have a negative impact on the surrounding environment. Existing dust suppressants have limited wetting and spreading on the dust surface, making them unable to efficiently adsorb and bond dust particles, leading to insufficient dust suppression rates. Chinese invention patent CN109021925A discloses a method for preparing an environmentally friendly dust suppressant, which uses polyacrylamide-based polymers as a skeleton material, polyvalent ethanol as a hygroscopic material, and sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate as a surfactant. The agent has excellent adhesion and rapid film-forming properties, can consolidate fine particles on the surface, increase surface strength, and rapidly form a film on the surface. However, this patent uses polyacrylamide, which is difficult to degrade. Solid-state emissions into the environment cause certain environmental damage and are not friendly to the living space of soil microorganisms.

[0005] Therefore, there is a need in the art to develop a method and application of an eco-friendly dust suppressant with a multi-component herbal compound that can effectively solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method and application of an eco-friendly dust suppressant prepared by a multi-component compound of herbal plants. Based on the idea of ​​preventing and controlling dust from the source, the prepared dust suppressant has a good dust reduction effect, saves water, can improve the visibility of the mining working face, reduce dust pollution, and improve coal mine production conditions; the preparation method makes full use of herbal natural resources and conforms to the concept of sustainable development.

[0007] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method for preparing an eco-friendly dust suppressant by compounding multiple herbs, comprising the following steps: Step S1, washing corn stalks and corn cobs with clean water, drying them naturally, chopping and grinding them, and then fully crushing them with a universal grinder to obtain a mixed powder of corn stalks and corn cobs with a mesh size of 65-80; Step S2: preparing a NaOH solution, adding a mixed powder of corn stalks and corn cobs to the NaOH solution, heating and stirring in a constant temperature water bath at 90-100° C. to fully dissolve the mixture, thereby obtaining a cellulose mixed solution; Step S3, diluting the obtained cellulose mixed solution with water to a pH value of 7.9; heating the solution in a constant temperature water bath at 30.9° C. while stirring the solution with a precision power-amplifying electric stirrer, and adding Bacillus subtilis to obtain a mixed solution; Step S4, adding guar gum to the mixed solution to provide a sugar source for Bacillus mucilaginosus to meet the growth requirements of Bacillus mucilaginosus, thereby obtaining a Bacillus mucilaginosus growth solution; Step S5, adding CaCl2 to the Bacillus subtilis propagation liquid, and letting it stand in the culture medium for 2 hours to fully activate the Bacillus subtilis; Step S6: After the activation of the Bacillus mucilaginosus is completed, the mixture is placed in a constant temperature water bath at 35° C. and stirred simultaneously with heating by a precision power-amplifying electric stirrer to obtain an eco-friendly dust suppressant.

[0008] Preferably, in step S2, the mass concentration of the prepared NaOH solution is 2%; wherein the ratio of the NaOH solution to the mixed powder of corn stalks and corn cobs is 1 mL:5 g; the stirring time is 1-2 h, and the rotation speed is 400 r / min.

[0009] Preferably, in step S3, different inoculation amount tests are performed to detect the growth of Bacillus mucilaginosus cells (OD 600 ); Different inoculation amounts include 1%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, and 4%; among them, the optimal inoculation amount of Bacillus mucilaginosus is 3.5%; The stirring time is 15-20 minutes, and the rotation speed is 500 r / min; wherein the number of effective bacteria in each gram of Bacillus subtilis is ≥5 billion.

[0010] Preferably, in step S4, the mass ratio of Bacillus mucilaginosus to guar gum is 80:1.

[0011] Preferably, in step S5, the mass ratio of guar gum to CaCl2 is 1:3.

[0012] Preferably, in step S6, the stirring time is 35-40 min and the rotation speed is 600 r / min.

[0013] A dust suppressant is prepared by a multi-component herbal compound eco-friendly dust suppressant method. Tall fescue seeds are added to the prepared dust suppressant to control dust on exposed soil and achieve an ecological restoration effect.

[0014] Preferably, the mass ratio of the eco-friendly dust suppressant to tall fescue seeds is 10:1.

It does not cause pollution or damage to groundwater, soil, air, vegetation, etc., and has minimal negative impact on the surrounding ecological environment and organisms, which is conducive to maintaining ecological balance; (3) The present invention provides a method for preparing cellulose by alkaline hydrolysis of corn stalks and corn cobs, which plays the role of a chain bridge and can link dust particles together, thereby facilitating Bacillus mucilaginosus to utilize the cementing properties of microorganisms to induce the principle of calcium carbonate consolidation and dust suppression; the microorganisms secreted by Bacillus mucilaginosus have good adhesive properties in the dust suppressant, and the mineralized products in the microbial dust suppressant can play the role of bonding, connecting and filling the coal dust, and can effectively consolidate tiny coal dust particles, thereby forming a complete consolidation layer; (4) Adaptability to various scenarios: The dust suppressant prepared by the present invention can be widely used in places where a large amount of dust is generated, such as construction sites, mining, and road transportation.
