Melhoramento de solos com recurso a enzimas. Análise da influência do teor em matéria orgânica.

Abstract

Neste trabalho pretende-se estudar qual a influência do teor em matéria orgânica no processo de estabilização de solos recorrendo a enzimas.Para evitar o processo de cultivo de bactérias, o qual é moroso, complicado e dependente das condições ambientais (temperatura, pH, etc.), a metodologia em estudo promove a precipitação de carbonato de cálcio (CaCO3) por via enzimática, misturando o solo com ureia, cloreto de cálcio e urease enzyme (Yashuara et al. 2012; Neupane et al. 2013). A temática em estudo é relativamente recente e bastante promissora, pois representa uma alternativa com menor impacte ambiental quando comparada com as atuais técnicas de estabilização de solos.A análise experimental será divida em duas fases, a primeira terá como objetivo a caracterização dos materiais, e a calibração dos equipamentos de medição de CaCO3 , a segunda fase envolve a realização de ensaios UCS em provetes de solo.A segunda fase de trabalhos, envolve a preparação de diversos provetes de solo para 8 teores em matéria orgânica, com e sem solução estabilizadora, permitindo desta forma a análise do efeito da bioestabilizaçãoDe forma a quantificar o comportamento mecânico dos provetes de solo, serão realizados ensaios de compressão simples (UCS), os quais serão complementados com medições do teor em humidade, pH, teor de CaCO3 precipitado, teor em matéria orgânica, ensaios DRX e SEM.Os resultados experimentais mostram que a introdução de solução estabilizadora nos provetes com maiores teores em matéria orgânica revela-se mais eficaz no que concerne à melhoria das propriedades mecânicas, contribuindo para o aumento de resistência e de rigidez.

In this work we intend to study the influence of organic matter content in the soil stabilization process using enzymes.In order to avoid the bacterial growth process, which is slow, complicated and dependent on the environmental conditions (temperature, pH, etc.), the methodology under study promotes the precipitation of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) by enzymatic means, mixing the soil with urea, calcium chloride and urease enzyme (Yashuara et al., 2012; Neupane et al., 2013).The theme under study is relatively recent and quite promising, since it represents an alternative with less environmental impact when compared with the current techniques of soil stabilization.The experimental analysis will be divided into two phases, the first one will aim at the characterization of the materials, and the calibration of the CaCO3 measuring equipment, the second phase involves performing UCS tests on soil test pieces.The second phase of work involves the preparation of several soil samples for 8 organic matter contents, with and without stabilizing solution, thus allowing the analysis of the effect of biostabilizationIn order to quantify the mechanical behavior of soil samples, simple compression tests (UCS) will be performed, which will be complemented with measurements of moisture content, pH, precipitated CaCO3 content, organic matter content, DRX and SEM assays.The experimental results show that the introduction of stabilizing solution in the test specimens with higher organic matter content is more effective in improving the mechanical properties, contributing to the increase in strength and stiffness.
