Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of microbial degradation of Polygonum cuspidatum residue, specifically to a composite microbial agent, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Polygonum cuspidatum, rich in resveratrol, polydextrin, and other secondary metabolites with anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-aging effects, has been widely used in medicine, health products, and cosmetics. In recent years, its cultivation and processing have expanded rapidly, resulting in a large amount of solid waste from Polygonum cuspidatum residue. This residue is mainly high-lignocellulose biomass remaining after the extraction of bioactive components, with a total organic matter content as high as 46.98% and a crude fiber content of 35.39%. It also possesses characteristics such as uniform particle size, good aeration, and natural resistance to pests and diseases. However, due to its dense lignocellulose composite structure and long natural degradation cycle, current disposal methods mostly rely on landfill or stockpiling. This not only occupies land and breeds pollution but also causes a serious waste of biomass resources, becoming a key bottleneck restricting the green and sustainable development of the Polygonum cuspidatum industry.
[0003] In recent years, scholars both domestically and internationally have actively explored ways to utilize solid waste from medicinal herbs. Studies have shown that the residue can be used for cultivating edible fungi, producing biomass fuel, or as a soil conditioner. Zhu Jie confirmed that Polygonum cuspidatum residue can effectively replace some of the main ingredients in Pleurotus eryngii cultivation and shows potential in tailings remediation. In addition to the above methods, given the high lignocellulose content of Polygonum cuspidatum residue, converting it into organic fertilizer through composting is another important pathway that combines environmental benefits with resource value. Functional microorganisms play a crucial role in the biotransformation of medicinal residue. Lu Zuyu isolated a highly efficient compound bacterium, HQW, from Salvia miltiorrhiza residue and improved its degradation efficiency by optimizing conditions. In the field of composting, compound microbial agents are widely recognized as being able to accelerate the maturation of organic waste during the composting process. He Zhouyang's research on sheep manure composting found that, compared to not inoculating with exogenous bacteria or only inoculating with a single strain, compound microbial agents can significantly improve composting efficiency and quality through the synergistic effect of multiple functional strains. The enzyme systems secreted by these strains, such as cellulase, hemicellulase, ligninase, and protease, work together to drive substrate decomposition. However, existing microbial agents are mostly designed for general waste (kitchen waste, livestock manure, straw), lacking functional strains specifically targeting the high lignocellulose and recalcitrant characteristics of Polygonum cuspidatum residue. Furthermore, they generally neglect the ratio of microbial communities and the antagonistic effects between agents. In fact, the composition and ratio of microbial communities have a decisive impact on composting efficiency: the composition and ratio of the microbial community affect the degradation efficiency of the residue, the maturation period, and the stability of the fertilizer product quality.
[0004] Current research has three major shortcomings: First, there is a lack of functional microbial strains that can efficiently utilize the Polygonum cuspidatum substrate; second, the antagonistic effects among microbial communities in compound microbial agents are often overlooked, affecting synergistic degradation efficiency; and third, unreasonable formulation of compound microbial agents makes it difficult to achieve a dual improvement in degradation efficiency and composting quality. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a highly efficient, stable, and non-antagonistic compound microbial agent specifically for Polygonum cuspidatum residue to meet the needs of resource utilization of Polygonum cuspidatum solid waste.

[0055] Test case The composite microbial agents prepared in the examples and comparative examples were inoculated at a 1% inoculation rate into a composting system containing Polygonum cuspidatum residue (the initial moisture contents of Examples 1-6 were 59.35%, 56.56%, 57.35%, 59.34%, 57.64%, and 57.75%, respectively; the initial moisture contents of Control Examples 1-4 were 58.18%, 57.17%, 57.19%, and 56.41%, respectively). Fermentation was carried out for 43 days, and the temperature was recorded daily. 200g samples were collected from the upper, middle, and lower layers of each pile on days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, 36, and 43. After thorough mixing, the samples were stored at -80℃ for analysis. The piles were manually turned after each sampling to ensure the material decomposition was as uniform as possible.

The composting effect of different proportions of compound microbial agents is evaluated through composting experiments. The optimal proportion of compound microbial agents is determined by composting physicochemical indicators such as T value, maximum temperature, thermophilic period time and seed germination index. T value = final carbon-nitrogen ratio / initial carbon-nitrogen ratio. Analysis of composting test results: Examples 1-6 and Comparative Examples 1-4 all showed an initial temperature increase followed by a gradual decrease. The thermophilic period began on day 2 and lasted until day 13, but the duration of the thermophilic period varied among the groups: the durations for Examples 1-6 were 12, 10, 10, 11, 9, and 11 days, respectively, while the durations for Comparative Examples 1-4 were 9, 9, 8, and 5 days, respectively. The peak temperatures for Examples 1-6 were 71.7℃, 70.6℃, 69.6℃, 67.6℃, 67.1℃, and 67.7℃, respectively, while the peak temperatures for Comparative Examples 1-4 were 69.4℃, 65.5℃, 67.5℃, and 57.3℃, respectively. All inoculated groups in Examples 1-6 maintained a thermophilic phase of ≥9 days, meeting the criteria for effective composting. At the start of the experiment, the initial moisture contents of Examples 1-6 were 59.35%, 56.56%, 57.35%, 59.34%, 57.64%, and 57.75%, respectively; the initial moisture contents of Comparative Examples 1-4 were 58.18%, 57.17%, 57.19%, and 56.41%, respectively. At the end of composting, the moisture contents of Examples 1-6 were 29.95%, 29.17%, 31.82%, 31.72%, 30.89%, and 31.72%, respectively; the moisture contents of Comparative Examples 1-4 were 30.07%, 31.71%, 30.73%, and 33.68%, respectively. These results indicate that, compared with the blank control group, microbial inoculants were more effective in reducing moisture content during composting. This may be related to microbial metabolic activity and the heat of the compost pile, thereby promoting the reduction of moisture content. The pH values of Examples 1-6 and Comparative Examples 1-4 all initially increased and then decreased. The overall trend showed a sharp increase from day 1 to day 22, indicating active ammoniation. Subsequently, the pH values decreased rapidly from day 23 to day 29, followed by a slow decrease from day 30 to day 43, reflecting the onset and continuation of nitrification. On day 1, the initial pH values of Examples 1-6 were 7.29, 7.25, 7.32, 7.50, 7.62, and 7.71, respectively, while the initial pH values of Comparative Examples 1-4 were 7.27, 7.26, 7.38, and 8.11, respectively. On day 22, the pH values of Examples 1-6 were 9.42, 9.31, 9.37, 9.36, 9.37, and 9.25, respectively, while the pH values of Comparative Examples 1-4 were 8.88 and 9. 07, 8.91, and 8.78; at the end of composting, the pH values of Examples 1-6 were 8.12, 8.18, 8.52, 8.10, 7.98, and 8.09, respectively, while the pH values of Comparative Examples 1-4 were 7.68, 7.76, 7.59, and 7.69, respectively. It can be seen that the final pH values of Examples 1-6 were significantly higher than those of Comparative Examples 1-4, and the pH values of Examples 1-6 all met the standard for mature compost (pH≤8.5). The EC values of Examples 1-6 and Comparative Examples 1-4 all showed a consistent trend: a steady increase in the early stages of composting, followed by a stabilization at the end of composting. In the initial stage of composting, the EC values of Examples 1-6 were 2.93 mS / cm, 2.97 mS / cm, 3.02 mS / cm, 2.98 mS / cm, 2.97 mS / cm, and 3.04 mS / cm, respectively, while the EC values of Comparative Examples 1-4 were 2.75 mS / cm, 2.83 mS / cm, 3.01 mS / cm, and 2.76 mS / cm, respectively. At the end of composting, the EC values of Examples 1-6 were 3.84 mS / cm, 2.97 mS / cm, 2.98 mS / cm, 2.97 mS / cm, and 3.04 mS / cm, respectively. The EC values of Examples 1-6 were 3.98 mS / cm, 4.00 mS / cm, 3.98 mS / cm, 3.89 mS / cm, and 4.00 mS / cm, respectively, while those of Comparative Examples 1-4 were 3.91 mS / cm, 3.70 mS / cm, 3.83 mS / cm, and 3.28 mS / cm, respectively. Analysis shows that the final EC values of Examples 1-6 were all significantly higher than those of Comparative Examples 1-4. This indicates that inoculation with the compound microbial agent described in this invention can accelerate the conversion of organic nitrogen into inorganic nitrogen that can be used by plants, thereby promoting compost maturation. Moreover, the EC values of Examples 1-6 were all ≤4 mS / cm, reaching the threshold for mature compost. The glycemic index (GI) of Examples 1-6 and Comparative Examples 1-4 increased continuously from the early to middle stages of composting and then stabilized in the later stage. At the beginning of composting, the GI values of Examples 1-6 were 20.63%, 19.10%, 19.82%, 20.67%, 21.33%, and 20.06%, respectively, while the GI values of Comparative Examples 1-4 were 21.07%, 22.14%, 20.95%, and 20.68%, respectively. At the end of composting, the GI values of Examples 1-6 rose to 93.35%, 89.11%, and 83%, respectively. The GI values of Examples 1-6 were 15%, 82.24%, 87.67%, and 81.47%, respectively, while those of Comparative Examples 1-4 were 76.07%, 77.14%, 77.95%, and 71.15%. Analysis showed that the final GI values of Examples 1-6 were significantly higher than those of Comparative Examples 1-4. This indicates that inoculation with the compound microbial agent described in this invention can reduce the content of phytotoxic substances in compost and accelerate the humification process. Furthermore, the final GI values of Examples 1-6 were all ≥80%, indicating that they had no toxic effect on plant growth and met the standards for mature compost. The organic matter content of Examples 1-6 and Comparative Examples 1-4 decreased continuously from the early to middle stages of the composting process, and tended to stabilize in the later stage. At the beginning of composting, the organic matter content of Examples 1-6 was 61.61%, 61.27%, 58.58%, 60.75%, 61.58%, and 57.97%, respectively, while the organic matter content of Comparative Examples 1-4 was 60.92%, 60.05%, 59.81%, and 59.24%. At the end of composting, the organic matter content of Examples 1-6 decreased to [a lower value]. The organic matter content of Examples 1-6, inoculated with the compound microbial agent of the present invention, was 41.38%, 42.68%, 42.60%, 40.71%, 39.51%, and 40.07%, respectively, while that of Comparative Examples 1-4 was reduced to 44.03%, 43.92%, 44.33%, and 45.74%. Analysis shows that the reduction in organic matter in Examples 1-6 inoculated with the compound microbial agent of the present invention was higher than that in Comparative Examples 1-4. This indicates that inoculation with the compound microbial agent of the present invention can promote the decomposition of organic matter and accelerate the humification process in composting. The T values (final carbon-nitrogen ratio / initial carbon-nitrogen ratio) of Examples 1-6 were 0.83, 0.88, 1.01, 1.00, 0.92, and 0.91, respectively, while the T values (final carbon-nitrogen ratio / initial carbon-nitrogen ratio) of Comparative Examples 1-4 were 1.06, 1.17, 1.03, and 1.05, respectively. This indicates that the T values of Examples 1-6 inoculated with the compound microbial agent described in this invention were significantly lower than those of Comparative Examples 1-4, and the T values of Examples 1-6 all met the standards for mature composting. The physicochemical indicators such as organic matter content, total nutrient content, moisture content, pH, and GI of the Polygonum cuspidatum residue after composting in Examples 1-6 and Comparative Examples 1-4 are shown in Table 1.
