Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of photovoltaic waste treatment technology, and in particular relates to an ecological treatment process for photovoltaic foundation construction waste. Background Technology
[0002] During the construction of photovoltaic power plants, the foundation construction phase generates a large amount of complex waste, mainly including drilling mud for pile foundations, concrete residue, excavated soil, and oily pollutants. Currently, the industry's conventional methods for handling such waste are still mainly centralized transportation and landfill or simple stockpiling. This traditional treatment model has problems; it only achieves the physical transfer of waste or occupies space, failing to treat it as a potential resource for effective transformation and utilization, thus cutting off the material circulation path within the construction site. This not only leads to the continuous depletion of land resources and the potential risk of secondary environmental pollution, but also deprives photovoltaic power plants of the opportunity to achieve site ecological restoration and improvement through their own waste during construction, contradicting the environmental protection concept of green energy projects. Therefore, the following solutions are proposed to address the above problems. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an ecological treatment process for photovoltaic foundation construction waste. Through classification and pretreatment of photovoltaic construction waste, solidification with specific formulas, and layered ecological construction process, various types of waste can be transformed into stable ecological substrates in situ and the site vegetation can be restored. This solves the problem in the prior art that waste can only be transported to landfills, cannot be recycled, and is prone to secondary pollution and waste of land resources.

[0006] Furthermore, in step S2, the oil separation treatment of oily waste includes: adding a biosurfactant and stirring, followed by settling to remove the upper oil-water mixture.
[0007] Further, in step S3, the raw materials for preparing the curing-modifier include: pretreated concrete fine powder, pozzolanic material, silicate cement, lignosulfonate, ferrous sulfate and short fiber material, and the components are mixed in a predetermined proportion.
[0008] Further, in step S3, the preparation of the microbial-plant synergistic remediation agent includes: mixing pretreated topsoil, humic acid, porous mineral materials, slow-release fertilizer, water-retaining agent, and a composite microbial inoculum containing petroleum hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria, heavy metal-tolerant bacteria, and nitrogen-fixing bacteria in a predetermined ratio. Further, in step S4, the method for constructing the stabilizing layer includes: mixing and stirring the dehydrated mud waste, the solidification-modifier, and the pretreated aggregate in a predetermined ratio, filling the treatment trench, compacting, and curing.
[0009] Further, in step S4, the method of constructing the transition layer includes: mixing the pretreated topsoil, the pretreated fine aggregate, the oily waste solids after oil separation treatment, and a small amount of solidifying-modifying agent in a predetermined ratio, then laying the mixture on the stabilizing layer and compacting it.
[0010] Furthermore, in step S5, the introduced composite plant community includes at least three of the following: deep-rooted plants, shallow-rooted plants, nitrogen-fixing plants, and heavy metal-accumulating plants, and is planted by sowing and / or cutting.
[0011] Furthermore, in step S5, the systematic ecological maintenance includes: implementing regular micro-sprinkler irrigation in the early stage of planting to keep the substrate moist, and supplementing slow-release fertilizer and / or functional microbial agents according to monitoring during plant growth.
[0012] Furthermore, it also includes a step of comprehensively assessing the vegetation growth, soil environmental indicators, and structural stability of the treated area at a predetermined time after the completion of ecological restoration, and integrating the qualified areas with the surrounding photovoltaic fields in terms of landscape.
