Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of environmental remediation technology, specifically to a soil conditioner, a soil stabilizer, and their application in the ecological remediation of ion-adsorption rare earth minerals. Background Technology
[0002] Ion-adsorption rare earth minerals are an important strategic resource for my country, possessing non-renewable properties and widely used in national defense and high-tech fields. While using magnesium sulfate as a leaching agent in the mining of ion-adsorption rare earth minerals mitigates the ammonia nitrogen pollution problems in surface and groundwater caused by traditional ammonium sulfate in-situ leaching processes, it may lead to an increase in magnesium sulfate content in the ore body, causing some degree of salinity stress to plants. Furthermore, as this new process is an in-situ leaching method, the problems associated with in-situ leaching, such as increased soil moisture content, soil instability, susceptibility to soil erosion, and loss of soil nutrients, still exist.
[0003] For the ecological restoration of ion-adsorption rare earth minerals, existing methods mainly employ a combination of soil amendment and phytoremediation. Soil amendment involves adding soil conditioners to improve the soil environment. These conditioners typically contain organic fertilizers, inorganic fertilizers, pH adjusters, water-retaining agents, binders, conditioners, and adsorbents. Adding conditioners can enhance soil fertility, increase pH, improve soil structure and texture, and strengthen the soil's water retention capacity. Additionally, topsoil can be introduced to enhance the ecological restoration effect by covering the soil with high-quality planting soil. Phytoremediation involves selecting suitable tree, shrub, and herbaceous plant varieties to artificially construct plant communities. Combined with microbial agents, this improves plant tolerance and survival rates, and promotes nutrient cycling. Ultimately, this improves soil fertility, enhances soil quality, reduces ammonia nitrogen release, and artificially constructs a stable ecological environment system.
[0004] However, the above-mentioned "soil improvement + phytoremediation" approach cannot effectively solve the environmental problems caused by the new leaching process: (1) It does not solve the problem of salinity stress caused by magnesium sulfate. The magnesium sulfate solution in the new leaching process has a mass concentration of about 3%. After some magnesium sulfate is released into the environment, the high concentration area will inhibit plant growth; (2) The water and soil conservation effect is poor. When the in-situ leaching process is used, the soil moisture content in the liquid collection area at the foot of the mountain increases. When it rains, the structure is unstable and it is easy to lose water and soil. The existing "soil improvement + vegetation restoration" approach relies on plants to cover the rain to reduce the scouring effect of rainwater and the roots of plants to consolidate the soil. It relies on plants for water and soil conservation. However, when the vegetation has not survived on a large scale in the early stage, the water and soil conservation effect is weak; (3) The water and fertilizer retention effect is poor. Because the vegetation has not fully recovered in the early stage of restoration, the soil surface erosion further causes nutrient loss and strong water effect, which has a great adverse effect on seed germination and seedling growth.
[0005] Therefore, how to provide an ion-based rare earth mineral soil amendment material and its ecological restoration method that can alleviate the effects of salinity stress, significantly improve soil stability, and retain water and fertilizer is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in this field. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The technical problem to be solved by this invention is the defects of existing ecological restoration methods for ion-adsorption rare earth minerals, such as salinity stress caused by magnesium sulfate, poor soil and water conservation effect, and poor water and fertilizer retention effect. Therefore, this invention provides a soil amendment material for ion-adsorption rare earth minerals and a restoration method thereof that can reduce salinity stress and significantly improve soil stability, water and fertilizer retention.

[0019] Thirdly, the present invention provides a method for ecological restoration of ion-adsorption rare earth minerals, comprising the following steps: (1) Soil stabilizer and soil conditioner are applied sequentially to the soil of the ion-adsorption rare earth tailings area to be remediated for remediation; (2) Transplant plant seeds to the restored ion-type rare earth tailings area; The soil conditioner is the soil conditioner described in the first aspect, and the soil stabilizer is the soil stabilizer described in the second aspect.
[0020] In one alternative implementation, in step (1), the thickness of the topsoil stripped is 10cm-15cm.
[0021] In one alternative embodiment, the plant includes at least one of ferns and grasses.
[0022] In one alternative embodiment, the fern includes at least one of *Dictamnus dasycarpus* and *Cibotium barometz*.
[0023] In one alternative embodiment, the grass species includes at least one of foxtail grass and tall fescue.
[0024] The technical solution of this invention has the following advantages: 1. The method for ecological restoration of ion-type rare earth mines provided by the present invention includes the following steps: (1) applying soil stabilizer and soil conditioner to the soil of the ion-type rare earth tailings area to be restored in sequence for restoration; (2) transplanting plant seeds to the restored ion-type rare earth tailings area. By weight, the raw materials of the soil conditioner include: 100-200 parts of biochar, 5-50 parts of fulvic acid, 40-100 parts of organic fertilizer, 30-50 parts of slow-release inorganic fertilizer, and 50-200 parts of mineral soil; the raw materials of the soil stabilizer include: 0-20 parts of polyanionic cellulose, 10-50 parts of cementing agent, and 10-30 parts of cellulose. Adding biochar and fulvic acid to the soil conditioner can increase soil porosity, soil cation exchange capacity, water-soluble calcium and water-soluble magnesium content, and reduce soil bulk density, sodium adsorption ratio (SAR) and water-soluble sodium content, which is beneficial to reducing salinity stress. Adding cementitious agents to soil stabilizers can improve soil viscosity, enhance soil texture, and increase soil water retention capacity. Adding fibers can improve the consolidation effect and resistance to water erosion. Cementitious agents, cellulose, and / or polyanionic cellulose can form a highly compacted soil layer at the bottom and top layers, promoting overall vegetation restoration, improving soil water and fertilizer retention capacity, preventing nutrient loss, and accelerating vegetation recovery. Combined with soil conditioners and planting, this achieves long-term soil stability, replenishes and slowly releases soil fertility, and the formation of high-coverage vegetation further prevents soil erosion.

Any product that is the same as or similar to the present invention, derived by any person under the guidance of the present invention or by combining the features of the present invention with other prior art, falls within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0026] Unless otherwise specified, all experimental steps or conditions in the examples were performed according to conventional experimental procedures and conditions in the art. Reagents or instruments whose manufacturers are not specified are all commercially available products.
[0027] In order to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned related technologies, according to a first aspect of the present invention, a soil conditioner is provided, wherein the raw materials of the soil conditioner include, by weight, 100-200 parts of biochar, 5-50 parts of humic acid, 40-100 parts of organic fertilizer, 30-50 parts of slow-release inorganic fertilizer, and 50-200 parts of mineral soil.
[0028] In one optional embodiment, the organic matter content of the fulvic acid is 40%-70%.
[0029] In one optional embodiment, the biochar has a moisture content of 30%-35%.
[0030] In one optional embodiment, the fulvic acid includes at least one of sodium fulvicate and potassium fulvicate.
[0031] In one alternative embodiment, the mineral soil includes at least one of sepiolite, kaolin, bentonite, zeolite, diatomite, attapulgite, and perlite.
[0032] It should be noted that mineral soil can improve soil water retention capacity and improve soil structure.
[0033] In one optional embodiment, the biochar preparation method includes the following steps: dewatered sludge from an urban biological wastewater treatment plant is added to a reactor, saturated steam is introduced, and the reactor temperature is controlled at 220℃-240℃ and the pressure at 3MPa-5MPa for 0.1h-1h. After the sludge is discharged, it is further dewatered using a plate and frame dewatering system to obtain biochar with a moisture content of 30%-35%. The biochar prepared using the above method has low cost and high organic matter content.
[0034] It should be noted that organic fertilizers contain agricultural and livestock by-products rich in organic matter, such as chicken manure, sheep manure, beet pulp, and sugarcane bagasse, as well as commercially available microbial agents, such as Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus licheniformis, and EM (Effective Microorganisms) composting agents, which can increase the organic matter content and the number of beneficial microorganisms in the soil.
[0035] It should be noted that inorganic slow-release fertilizers contain low-solubility compounds such as silicates and phosphates, as well as inert encapsulating materials such as humic acid, which can prolong the fertilizer effect and reduce the loss of soil fertility caused by rainwater and leaching solutions.
[0036] Secondly, the present invention provides a soil stabilizer, wherein the raw materials of the soil stabilizer include: 0-20 parts of polyanionic cellulose, 10-50 parts of cementing agent, and 10-30 parts of cellulose, by weight.
[0037] In one alternative embodiment, the polyanionic cellulose (PAC) includes at least one of carboxymethyl cellulose, carboxyethyl cellulose, and carboxypropyl cellulose.
[0038] It should be noted that polyanionic cellulose is an important water-soluble cellulose ether with strong hygroscopicity and easy solubility in water. It has the functions of retaining moisture, improving soil structure, increasing porosity, and increasing soil nutrient retention capacity.
[0039] In one alternative embodiment, the binder includes at least one of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose and hydroxyethyl methylcellulose.
[0040] In one alternative embodiment, the fiber includes at least one of polypropylene fiber and basalt fiber.
[0041] The third invention provides the application of the soil conditioner described in the first aspect and the soil stabilizer described in the second aspect in the ecological restoration of ion-adsorption rare earth minerals.

[0043] In one alternative implementation, in step (1), the thickness of the topsoil stripped is 10cm-15cm.
[0044] In one alternative embodiment, the plant includes at least one of ferns and grasses.
[0045] In one alternative embodiment, the fern includes at least one of *Dictamnus dasycarpus* and *Cibotium barometz*.
[0046] In one alternative embodiment, the grass species includes at least one of foxtail grass and tall fescue.
[0047] It should be noted that *Miscanthus sinensis* and *Cibotium barometz* belong to the fern family and have a strong rooting ability, forming a connection between the top and bottom soil layers to create a unified soil structure. Meanwhile, grasses such as *Setaria viridis* or tall fescue have strong salt tolerance and can serve as pioneer plants to quickly increase vegetation cover, providing protection for the topsoil and reducing soil erosion.
[0048] It should be noted that the method for ecological restoration of ion-adsorption rare earth minerals provided by this invention specifically includes the following steps: S1. Surface clearing: Remove 10-15cm of the surface soil from the ion-adsorption rare earth tailings area to be restored, where there is no vegetation cover, and retain the soil for later use. S2. Solidification: After stripping the topsoil, spread the soil solidification agent and mix it evenly with the soil at a distance of 10m-16m from the soil surface, then compact it. S3, Soil improvement: Add soil conditioner to the soil after stripping in step (1), mix well, and spread it on the surface of the soil after treatment in step (2); S4. Transplant plant seeds to the restored ion-type rare earth tailings area.
[0049] In one optional embodiment, in S2, the mass ratio of the soil stabilizer to the soil is 5-10:100.
[0050] In one optional implementation, the compaction step can be carried out manually or by machine; preferably, a 10t vibratory roller is used to compact areas with a slope of less than 4° and a width of more than 3m, otherwise a gasoline vibratory compactor can be used.
[0051] It should be noted that by combining the compaction process with the selection of specific plants, a soil layer with high compaction can be formed at the bottom of the soil. This can reduce the soil erosion modulus and the soil permeability coefficient, reduce the rate at which salt-containing leaching solutions seep into the surface, and alleviate the degree of surface soil salinization.
[0052] In one alternative implementation, in S3, the soil conditioner and the soil are in a mass ratio of 5-20:100.
