The present application relates to the technical field of ecological environment restoration, in particular to a breathable geosynthetic clay and production process thereof.
Water resources are particularly scarce in China, with a total amount of 28 trillion cubic meters, and per capita water resources of only 2,170 cubic meters, which is less than a quarter of the world average level. China is one of the 13 water-poor countries in the world. In China, the available water sources mainly include river water, freshwater lake water and shallow groundwater. For surface freshwater resources such as rivers and lakes, water loss is mainly due to evaporation and seepage. According to incomplete statistics, seepage accounts for about 80% of the water loss.
In order to solve the seepage problem of surface freshwater resources such as lakes, an anti-seepage layer is mainly used in the prior art, and the anti-seepage layer is a structural layer formed by treating anti-seepage materials at the bottom of an artificial lake. In a newly excavated artificial lake, water will leak due to the loose soil structure at the bottom of the lake. In order to prevent water from seepage, an anti-seepage layer structure is usually provided in the design drawing. Anti-seepage treatment can effectively control the seepage of the lake water, thus greatly reducing the loss of water. At present, geomembrane anti-seepage technology, mixed material anti-seepage technology and bentonite anti-seepage technology are mainly used.
However, the above three anti-seepage technologies mainly focus on the anti-seepage performance of the materials, but do not have too many requirements for the air permeability of the anti-seepage materials. In the prior art, a geosynthetic clay is filled with soil, which is not breathable and becomes viscous when meeting water. However, if the vertical communication between the earth and the air is blocked for a long time, oxygen content in the water body will decrease, and the self-purification function of the water body will also decrease, resulting in water quality deterioration. In order to solve the problem of difficulty in breathing while preventing seepage, the prior art CN103174107A discloses a breathable and impermeable bag for preventing seepage at the bottom of a river channel. The breathable and impermeable bag is composed of a breathable wall bag and breathable and impermeable particles filled therein. The breathable and impermeable bag has both anti-seepage performance and air permeability. However, due to good fluidity of the breathable and impermeable particles, they are easy to leak, and are inconvenient for construction. In addition, there is a lot of dust during the construction process, thus many inconveniences are caused to construction workers.
The purpose of the present application is to solve the problems in the prior art that the breathable and impermeable particles are easy to leak, and a lot of dust are generated during the construction process, and further to provide a breathable geosynthetic clay liner with convenient construction, high production efficiency, no dust during the construction process, and good air permeability and anti-seepage performance and a production process thereof.

The breathable and impermeable sand layer comprises a breathable and impermeable particle and an expansive particle, and the expansive particle is added in an amount of 5% of the mass of the breathable and impermeable particle. The breathable and impermeable particle has a particle size of 0.1 mm; and the expansive particle is bentonite having a particle size of 0.075 mm.
The breathable and impermeable particle comprises an aggregate and a polyamide resin modified epoxy resin covering the aggregate. The aggregate is quartz sand. The polyamide resin modified epoxy resin is 3 wt % of the mass of the quartz sand.
The breathable and impermeable particle is prepared by a method comprising the following steps:
1) heating quartz sand particles to a temperature of 70° C.;
2) adding polyamide resin modified epoxy resin, stirring thoroughly, then adding alicyclic amine curing agent (accounting for 0.015 wt % of the quartz sand), and stirring evenly, so that the epoxy resin is coated on the surface of the quartz sand particles, thus obtaining coated particles, then adding bentonite (the bentonite has a particle size of 0.001 mm, and is added in an amount of 20 wt % of the mass of the quartz sand) into the coated particles, stirring evenly, then cooling, crushing and sieving to obtain a breathable and impermeable particle.
The production process of the above-mentioned breathable geosynthetic clay liner comprises the following steps:
1) coating waterborne epoxy resin on a rotating roller 6, and a lower breathable layer 1 is laid on the rotating roller 6 and transported forward with the rotating roller 6, so that the waterborne epoxy resin is coated on a lower surface of the lower breathable layer 1;
2) laying a mixture of a breathable and impermeable particle and an expansive particle on an upper surface of the lower breathable fiber cloth layer 1 through a funnel 3 provided above the lower breathable fiber cloth layer 1, and scraping the mixture with a scraper 4 to form a breathable and impermeable sand layer 7 with a thickness of 6 mm;
3) laying an upper breathable fiber cloth layer 2 on the breathable and impermeable sand layer 7; and
4) fixedly connecting the upper breathable fiber cloth layer 2, the breathable and impermeable sand layer 7 and the lower breathable fiber cloth layer 1 through needle punching by using a needle on the needle plate 5 to form an integral body, wherein, the needle has a diameter of 0.4 mm, and the distance between two adjacent needles is 1.0 mm; specifically, the upper breathable fiber cloth layer and lower breathable fiber cloth layer are penetrated by a needle installed on the needle plate 5, the needle is provided with hangnails, and the needle plate 5 moves vertically downwards to bring fibers in the upper breathable fiber cloth layer 2 to the lower breathable fiber cloth layer 1 and fix them with an environmental-friendly glue coated on a surface of the lower breathable fiber cloth layer 1, meanwhile, when the needle plate 5 moves upwards, fibers of the lower breathable fiber cloth layer 1 are brought to the upper breathable fiber cloth layer 2 to realize the connection of the fibers in the upper breathable fiber cloth layer and lower breathable fiber cloth layer, thus firmly fixing the particles in the breathable and impermeable sand layer 7 thereof, and reducing the fluidity, to obtain a breathable geosynthetic clay liner.
When compared with Embodiment 3, the only difference of Embodiment 12 lies in that the surface of the lower breathable fiber cloth layer is not coated with waterborne epoxy resin, and the fibers of the upper breathable fiber cloth layer are brought to the lower breathable fiber cloth layer through needle punching and are fixed into the lower breathable fiber cloth layer.
When compared with Embodiment 3, the only difference of Embodiment 13 lies in that a wool layer is laid on the surface of the upper breathable fiber cloth layer.
When compared with Embodiment 3, the only difference of Embodiment 14 lies in that the expansive particle is a mixture of a first bentonite particle having a particle size of 0.048 mm and a second bentonite particle having a particle size of 4 mm (the mass ratio of the first bentonite particle and the second bentonite particle is 1:1), and the breathable and impermeable sand layer has a thickness of 3 mm.
When compared with Embodiment 3, the only difference of Embodiment 15 lies in that the expansive particle is a mixture of a first bentonite particle having a particle size of 0.075 mm and a second bentonite particle having a particle size of 2.8 mm (the mass ratio of the first bentonite particle and the second bentonite particle is 1:10), and the breathable and impermeable sand layer has a thickness of 9 mm.
When compared with Embodiment 3, the only difference of Embodiment 16 lies in that the upper breathable layer is an upper breathable fiber cloth layer, and the lower breathable layer is a lower woven cloth.
When compared with Embodiment 3, the only difference of Embodiment 17 lies in that the upper breathable layer is an upper breathable fiber cloth layer, and the lower breathable layer is a lower non-woven fabric.
When compared with Embodiment 3, the only difference of Embodiment 18 lies in that in the step 4), the upper breathable fiber cloth layer, the breathable and impermeable sand layer and the lower breathable fiber cloth layer are fixedly connected through a conventional needle punching process with a hydrophobic thread to form an integral body, thus obtaining a breathable geosynthetic clay liner.
When compared with Embodiment 3, the only difference of Comparative example 1 lies in that the breathable and impermeable sand layer in this comparative example only uses expansive particles, and no breathable and impermeable particles are added.
The air permeability and waterproof performance of the breathable geosynthetic clay liner obtained in Embodiments 1-11 and Comparative Example 1 are tested, and the results are shown in table 1, so as to illustrate the hydrophobicity and air permeability of the breathable geosynthetic clay liner in the present application.
The principle of the air permeability detection method is to test by using a differential-pressure method, a certain gas pressure difference (1 kpa) is maintained on both sides of the sample at room temperature, and the air permeability is calculated by measuring the change in the gas pressure on the low pressure side of the sample. As for the method of measuring the water blocking height, please see patent CN102890046A, which discloses a device and a method for detecting anti-seepage performance of anti-seepage sand.
