赤泥和磷石膏长期以来一直是全球工业废物管理的重点和挑战,他们的低成本和大规模利用技术一直是迫切需要的。本研究基于赤泥与磷石膏的强酸碱中和反应,含有类似于天然土壤的元素组成,赤泥本身具有粘土矿物的特性,和其他辅助材料(即稻壳粉,膨润土,粉煤灰,添加聚丙烯酰胺絮凝剂和微生物悬浮液),从而探索协同制备人工土壤恢复植被的潜力。结果表明,人工土壤表现出物理化学特性(例如,pH值,水分含量,阳离子交换能力)类似于天然土壤,连同丰富的有机物,氮,磷,和钾含量,满足植物的生长要求。人造土壤能够支持合适植物的有利生长(例如,向日葵,小麦,黑麦草),积累高水平的不同酶活性,与天然土壤中的那些(例如,过氧化氢酶,脲酶,磷酸酶),甚至超越自然土壤(例如,蔗糖酶),和丰富的微生物群落,如蓝细菌,变形杆菌,细菌域中的放线菌,和真菌领域的子囊菌,最初开发。建议制备1吨人工土壤需要协同消耗613.7kg赤泥和244.6kg磷石膏,占质量比例61.4%和24.5%,分别。在未来,应该对养分和碱度的淋失和重金属的环境风险进行更多的评估,为人工土壤的应用提供更多的参考。总之,人工土壤的制备非常简单,高效,可扩展、低成本的赤泥和磷石膏协同资源利用方案,在一些地方,如尾矿田和缺土洼地,具有很大的植被恢复潜力。
Red mud and phosphogypsum have long been a focus and challenge in global industrial waste management, and their low-cost and large-scale utilization technology has always been an urgent need. This study is based on the strong acid-base neutralization reaction between red mud and phosphogypsum, which contain an elemental composition similar to that of natural soil, red mud itself has characteristic of clay minerals, and other auxiliary materials (i.e. rice husk powder, bentonite, fly ash, polyacrylamide flocculant and microbial suspension) were added, so as to explore the potential of synergistically prepared artificial soil for vegetation restoration. The results showed that the artificial soils exhibited physicochemical characteristics (e.g., pH, moisture content, cation exchange capacity) similar to those of natural soil, along with abundant organic matter, nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium contents, meeting the growth requirements of plants. The artificial soils were able to support favorable growth of suitable plants (e.g., sunflower, wheat, rye grass), accumulating high levels of diverse enzymatic activities, comparable to those in natural soils (e.g., catalase, urease, phosphatase), or even surpassing natural soils (e.g., sucrase), and rich microorganism communities, such as Cyanobacteria, Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria in the bacteria domain, and Ascomycota in the fungi domain, were initially developed. It\'s suggested that preparing 1 ton of artificial soil entails synergistic consumption of 613.7 kg of red mud and 244.6 kg of phosphogypsum, accounting for mass proportions of 61.4 % and 24.5 %, respectively. In future, more evaluations on the leaching loss of nutrients and alkalinity and the environmental risks of heavy metals should be conducted to more references for the artificial soil application. In summary, the preparation of artificial soil is a very simple, efficient, scalable and low-cost collaborative resource utilization scheme of red mud and phosphogypsum, which has great potential for vegetation restoration in some places such as tailings field and soil-deficient depression.
