In this work, pH-responsive gel spheres for controlled release of humic acid (CSGCHs) were prepared by an integrated instillation technology using a composite material of sodium alginate (SA) and charcoal activated carbon (CAC) as a carrier, and their slow-release performance, pH-responsive performance, and soil amendment performance were investigated. The results showed that the prepared CSGCH was uniform in size with obvious base responsiveness. Soil remediation experiments revealed that CSGCH could play a good role in the remediation of different types of soils. After 50 days of remediation, the content of nutrients and organic matter in the soil increased significantly and the pH and salt content of saline soils decreased by 15.2 and 29.8%, respectively. The plant experiment showed that CSGCH could effectively promote the growth of crops. Therefore, the prepared soil conditioner has a great potential value for improving soil conditions and promoting crop growth in agricultural applications.
