The invention relates to the technical field of
soil remediation, in particular to a
biochar-
humic acid-
calcium alginic acid composite
saline-
alkali soil modifier and a preparation and application method thereof. The modifier adopts a multi-layer structure design:
biochar is pre-adsorbed by
calcium chloride, compounded with
sodium humate, and then crosslinked with
sodium alginate to form a gel to form a composite inner core; secondly, sulfobetaine
methacrylate and vinyl phosphonic acid are introduced into a
sodium alginate molecular chain through graft
polymerization, and modified
sodium alginate is obtained to serve as an outer layer
coating material; and finally, dipping the composite inner core into the outer layer solution, and carrying out graded recalcification by
calcium chloride and short-time treatment by
sodium sulfate to obtain a final product. Through the synergistic effect of calcium
ion slow release of the inner core and zwitterionic characteristics of the outer layer, efficient replacement and long-term stable regulation and control of soil sodium ions are achieved, the pH value, the
conductivity and the alkalization degree of soil are remarkably reduced, the
water holding capacity is effectively improved, and the
soil conditioner is suitable for sustainable improvement of moderate and severe
saline-
alkali soil.
