The present invention provides for biochar coated particles and a method for coating the particles with biochar.

A method for stabilizing fluorides and arsenic in soil includes: step 1, adding a calcium-containing compound to the soil contaminated by fluorides and arsenic, stirring uniformly, and standing for curing; step 2, adding an iron-containing compound to the mixture obtained in step 1, stirring uniformly, and standing for curing; and step 3, adding water to the mixture obtained in step 2, optionally adding a pH adjusting agent to adjust the gravimetric water content to 30%-40%, and standing for curing. The method uses calcium-containing and iron-containing compounds in a step-by-step manner, makes full use of the advantages of different passivation materials, combines the advantages of all reagents, and establishes an economical, efficient and environmentally friendly method for stabilizing fluorides and arsenic in soil to achieve effective remediation of contaminated soil.

An aqueous modified acid composition for industrial activities, said composition comprising: an alkanolamine and strong acid in a molar ratio of not less than 1:15, preferably not less than 1:10; it can also further comprise a metal iodide or iodate. Said composition demonstrates advantages over known conventional acids and modified acids.

A fluidized sand composition for use as a filling material for sinkholes and the like weakened ground cavities. The fluidized sand composition is produced by mixing graded sand, water, a fluidizer, a plasticizer, and a surface active agent. The fluidized sand composition is easily injected into the ground cavity of a sinkhole. After filling, the fluidized sand composition will return to the solid natural condition according to the effect of plasticizer previously added. The fluidized sand composition allows for compaction, soil stabilization, permits water migration through the material, and can be easily excavated.

A composite particle is described herein. The composite particle can contain a seed particle of an agricultural treatment material and a shell disposed on the seed particle, wherein the shell comprises a clay.

The bioorganic soil conditioner includes biochar derived from plant waste and a mix of chemicals including sulfonated naphthalene formaldehyde, urea-formaldehyde and polyvinyl alcohol. The bioorganic soil conditioner is made by infusing biochar from lignin-rich plant waste with the mix of chemicals. The bioorganic soil conditioner improves soil aggregation and moisture and nutrient retention capacity. Thus, the bioorganic soil conditioner may be added to soil to improve crop production and stabilize soil, for example, in conditions of high wind or desertification.
