土壤技术公司从土著土地上开辟可持续发展之路
MetaFLO 的生物聚合物迅速将一条潜在危险的未铺设路面变成了紧凑耐用的路面,同时节省了时间和金钱。

Alto Horizonte, GO, Brazil
挑战
With regular heavy rain and 600 trucks passing through daily, the sandy clay soil road suffered severe structural impact and required continuous maintenance and labor. Due to the road being on Indigenous land, paving was not an option, and another solution was needed to increase the surface’s density, stability and compaction.
解决方案
To address these issues, MetaFLO applied 0.02% of SoilTech biopolymer to a 200x12x0.3 m3 track, demonstrating the technology’s potential for road stabilization. When diluted directly in a water truck and applied to the track, SoilTech binds with the soil forming a hydrogel, while improving the soil’s mechanical properties after it cures. The treated soil exhibited increased mass density, better compaction, enhanced layer stabilization, and improved impermeability.

Outcome
✓ COST SAVINGS
The use of SoilTech resulted in a 27% reduction in fuel consumption and emissions of polluting gases, along with 2 hours less labor. The total savings almost reduced the cost of the project by half (46%).
✓ WATER SAVINGS
40.000 liters of water were saved by using SoilTech instead of traditional methods, reducing water consumption by 50%.
✓ ROAD QUALITY
After curing for 24 hours, the soil’s particle cohesion, compaction and impermeability were noticeably improved, leading to a more durable and resilient road surface.
