AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Due to the existence of heavy metal sulfides in the mining soil, the soil is seriously acidic, which restricts plant growth. The existing vegetation restoration structure has a single type of vegetation, and the enrichment and aggregation effects are weak, making it difficult to effectively control heavy metal pollution.

Method used

A vegetation restoration structure in the mine soil site was designed, including the substrate layer, the vegetation layer and the partition layer. The matrix layer provides support, the vegetation layer absorbs and enriches pollutants through multi-layer structures (canopy layer, shrub layer, cover layer), and the partition layer uses biodegradable mulch to prevent pollutants from spreading.

Benefits of technology

Through the multi-layer vegetation structure, the partition layer prevents pollutants from spreading, and realizes a virtuous cycle of vegetation restoration and environmental pollution control.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of mine ecological restoration, in particular to a mine soil field vegetation restoration structure. Background Art

[0002] Mining plays an irreplaceable role in the rapid economic development of my country, but it also causes damage to the ecological environment. In the process of mining, especially in open-pit mining sites, a large amount of non-ore waste will inevitably be abandoned, and the concentrated discharge site will form a soil dump. The soil dump will not only occupy a large amount of land, but also be a giant artificial pile of loose structure mountain. If not handled in time, it will not only cause soil erosion, but also mudslides. At the same time, the metal sulfides in the waste will also leach a large amount of acidic wastewater containing heavy metals when exposed to water and air, causing great pollution to the surrounding environment. Vegetation restoration of the soil dump can not only reduce the risk of water loss, but also be an effective measure to control the pollution of heavy metal acidic wastewater in the soil dump. However, for the vegetation restoration of acidic soil dumps, the high concentration of heavy metals and polar acidity in the soil are important limiting factors that restrict plant growth, and are also the difficulty of vegetation restoration.

[0003] There are many existing technologies for vegetation restoration structures, such as:

[0004] Chinese patent announcement number CN208675708U discloses a vegetation restoration structure for the slope of an acidic soil dump in a mine, which includes a water guide hole, a water guide pipe, an isolation layer, and a matrix layer; the water guide pipe is buried as a whole under the three-dimensional net, and the water guide pipe is a "7" shape, with the shorter end inserted into the water guide hole. The isolation layer is composed of a three-dimensional net, clay, and straw curtains. Its structure is that the three-dimensional net is located at the bottom layer, then filled with clay, and finally covered with straw curtains. The straw curtains and the three-dimensional net are anchored by U-shaped rivets; the matrix layer is a plant growth area, located above the isolation layer. The utility model realizes a virtuous cycle of ecological restoration by guiding the discharge of acidic leachate, isolating and covering, and preventing further acidification, and further controlling the spread of environmental pollutants through the restoration of vegetation.

[0005] Existing vegetation restoration structures usually set up a barrier layer around the polluted area to prevent heavy metal pollutants in the soil from flowing to other areas with groundwater, thereby causing the pollution area to expand, and then the plants that can enrich heavy metal elements on the surface absorb the pollutants. However, due to the serious salinization of the mine pollution area, the soil environment is relatively harsh, and there are fewer species of plants and microorganisms suitable for growth. The enrichment effect of the vegetation layer is relatively general, and if the vegetation structure is relatively simple, the vegetation has a weak aggregation effect on the soil. When encountering heavy rainfall, pollutants will be lost to other areas with water and soil. For example, the above-mentioned patent proposes a mine acid soil dump slope vegetation restoration structure, which plants plants in the matrix layer, but does not solve the problem of single vegetation species, which leads to the weak enrichment effect of vegetation on pollutants and the aggregation effect on soil.

[0006] In view of this, we propose a mine soil field vegetation restoration structure to improve the shortcomings of existing technologies. Summary of the invention

The substrate layer is used to provide support for the vegetation layer, the vegetation layer is used to absorb and enrich the pollutants contained in the substrate layer, and the barrier layer is used to prevent the pollutants in the substrate layer from diffusing to the area adjacent to the substrate layer.

[0009] As a further improvement of the technical solution, the substrate layer includes a soil substrate, a root layer is provided on the top of the soil substrate, and a microbial layer is provided in the root layer.
