STUDY OF SOIL STRUCTURAL PROPERTIES UNDER THE EFFECT OF COMPOSITE ADDITIVES (BASED ON INDUSTRIAL WASTE)

This study investigates the regulation of the structural properties of soil using composite additives based on water-soluble polyelectrolytes and an industrial wastewater-treatment residue referred to as “Bioshlam.” Poly (methacrylic acid) (PMAA) was synthesized by radical polymerization and chemically modified with amines of different hydrocarbon radical lengths to obtain compositionally different structure-forming materials. In parallel, Bioshlam generated during water treatment at Uz-Kor Gas Chemical was examined as a potential biologically active and mineral-containing additive.
