Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of simulated soil-groundwater system, and in particular to a test device and method for simulating the migration and transformation of pollutants in groundwater. Background Art

[0002] At present, with the acceleration of industrialization, environmental pollution problems are becoming increasingly serious, especially soil and groundwater pollution, which poses a serious threat to the ecological environment and human health. The migration and transformation of pollutants in the soil-groundwater system is a complex process involving the cross-action of multiple fields such as physics, chemistry, and biology, such as the multi-field coupling effect of hydrodynamic field, chemical field, and biological field. In particular, groundwater level fluctuations caused by irrigation or rainfall are an important process in the hydrological cycle between unsaturated soil and saturated aquifers. It will accelerate the migration, transformation and redistribution of pollutants and further pose potential environmental risks to humans. In the prior art, the migration and transformation of pollutants in the soil-groundwater system are mostly studied by numerical simulation, field experiments, or small-scale laboratory simulations. However, these methods have limitations in simulating the migration and transformation process of pollutants under the coupling of complex multiple fields (such as hydrodynamic field, chemical field, biological field, etc.), and it is difficult to fully and accurately reflect the complex mechanisms in the actual environment. Although numerical simulation can predict trends over a wide range, its accuracy is greatly affected by model parameters and is difficult to verify; field experiments are costly, time-consuming, and complex to operate; and traditional small-scale laboratory experiments often simplify the multi-field conditions and are difficult to reproduce the complex interactive processes in the real environment. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an experimental device that can more realistically and comprehensively simulate the migration and transformation of pollutants under irrigation or rainfall conditions under the multi-field effects of the soil-groundwater system.

[0003] The migration and transformation of pollutants in the natural environment is affected by a variety of physical, chemical and biological processes, such as water flow, solute diffusion, adsorption and desorption, and biodegradation. These processes are interrelated and influence each other, forming a complex multi-field coupling system. Existing technologies often find it difficult to fully and accurately simulate the migration and transformation process of pollutants under such multi-field coupling, resulting in deviations in research results.

[0004] Conditions in the natural environment (such as groundwater level, groundwater flow rate, temperature, pH value, etc.) are often in dynamic change, and these changes have an important impact on the migration and transformation of pollutants. Existing technologies often find it difficult to simulate the behavior of pollutants in this dynamic process in real time and accurately, resulting in research results that are difficult to reflect the actual situation. Achieve high-precision simulation under irrigation and rainfall conditions, including controllable adjustment of water volume, intensity and distribution pattern, to more accurately reflect the hydrological conditions in the actual environment.

[0005] Although on-site monitoring or large-scale testing can obtain relatively accurate data, it is costly, time-consuming, and difficult to repeat. Although numerical simulation is low-cost and time-efficient, its accuracy and reliability are often questioned. Therefore, how to find a balance between comprehensive cost and time efficiency has become an urgent problem to be solved.

[0006] Natural groundwater usually has a low dissolved oxygen content, and its anaerobic conditions can affect the balance of certain chemical substances in the groundwater, such as iron reduction, sulfide formation, and microbial metabolism, all of which may affect the migration and transformation of pollutants. Therefore, simulating the migration and transformation of pollutants in the soil-groundwater system at a laboratory scale, especially under irrigation or rainfall conditions, and maintaining anaerobic conditions for the prepared solution is a key and complex technical issue.

[0017] The present invention also provides a test method for simulating the migration and transformation of pollutants in groundwater using the test device for simulating the migration and transformation of pollutants in groundwater, the method comprising the following steps:

[0018] Step 1: According to the soil sediment and aquifer structure of the actual field site, the actual field soil sample and water-containing medium are selected as the sand trough filling medium; according to the experimental needs, the natural bulk density of the soil sample and the aquifer medium is filled; or according to the aquifer structure profile of the actual field site, quartz sand and clay of different mesh sizes are filled into the sand trough in a certain proportion and order, and the quartz sand is first acid-washed and alkaline-washed to remove impurities before being filled into the sand trough body; during the sample filling process, the method of filling and compacting layer by layer is adopted;

[0019] Step 2: After the sand tank is filled, deionized water is input into the water inlet well through the water supply system to reach the set water inlet level. During this period, water passes through the baffle until it reaches the aquifer medium filled in the sand tank. When it is fully saturated, the water enters the water outlet well through the porous baffle. When it reaches the set water outlet level, the excess water will flow out through the water outlet well and the water outlet regulating tank to maintain the water level. During the process of the sand tank being saturated with water, the water head in the sand tank rises by 5 cm every time, and water is continued to be supplied after it stabilizes to completely exhaust the air in the sand tank. After the sand tank is saturated with water, water is continued to be supplied.

[0020] Step 3: prepare a water supply solution according to the groundwater chemical indicators measured in the field, inject a sufficient amount of the water supply solution into the circulating water tank, first purge the residual top space of the circulating water tank and the water inlet regulating tank with nitrogen, then use a sealing cover to perform a plug seal, and connect the circulating water tank and the water inlet regulating tank by installing a nitrogen protection connecting pipe to form a closed nitrogen protection environment;

[0021] Step 4: During the experiment, water supply solution is used instead of deionized water to inject into the sand tank, and the height of the water inlet regulating tank and the water outlet regulating tank is adjusted to control the groundwater level and seepage rate; the sampling frequency is set, the seepage rate is tested, and the dissolved oxygen membrane is used to monitor the oxygen concentration in the sand tank in real time. The change rules of other relevant physical and chemical indicators are synchronously monitored through the pore water sampling holes and the groundwater sampling holes; the water head height at each pressure measuring hole is obtained through the pressure measuring device, and the permeability coefficient and hydraulic gradient of each area are calculated;

[0022] Step 5. After the experiment, collect sediment medium samples at each layer and test the change patterns of relevant indicators. Use deionized water instead of tracer solution to continue to pass into the sand tank, control the liquid injection rate, and detect the conductivity of the seepage fluid in the pore water sampling holes and groundwater sampling holes until the conductivity data drops below the background value, indicating that the flushing process has been completed.

[0023] Furthermore, in step 4, the flow direction, flow velocity, and swept area of ​​the water supply solution are tracked by injecting tracers into the sand tank, injecting tracers from the water inlet well, sampling at the water outlet well according to the tracer sampling frequency, monitoring the output of the tracer, and obtaining the tracer output curve, which is then fitted to observe the migration of the tracer and determine the distribution range of the diffusion zone, transition zone, and convection zone, thereby reflecting the law of fluid movement between the water inlet well and the water outlet well;

[0024] Liquid is sampled through the pore water sampling holes and groundwater sampling holes. The liquid sampling time interval is inversely proportional to the seepage velocity. The seepage velocity is calculated by the amount of water discharged from the outlet well of the sand trough. After the samples are collected, the conductivity is measured until the conductivity in the pore water sampling holes and groundwater sampling holes reaches a peak value and remains stable. The acquired data is processed to obtain the concentration changes at different locations at the same time and at different times at the same location, and a concentration contour map is drawn.

[0025] In step five, irrigation or rainfall conditions are simulated, a rainfall sprinkler is set above the sand box to simulate rainfall, and a rainfall water distribution plate with multiple filter holes evenly distributed is set below the rainfall sprinkler, so that the water sprayed by the rainfall sprinkler can evenly reach the upper surface of the sand trough.

[0026] The advantages and positive effects of the present invention are:

[0027] The present invention provides an experimental device for simulating the migration and transformation of pollutants in groundwater, which can adjust experimental parameters according to specific research needs, such as soil type, groundwater flow conditions, type and concentration of pollutants, etc., thereby enhancing the flexibility and applicability of the experiment. Compared with field tests, the device greatly reduces research costs and time costs.

[0028] The present invention utilizes the constant water head device of the water inlet well and the water outlet well to adjust different water levels of the prepared solution, sets the water inlet regulating tank and the water outlet regulating tank as the water head control device, and controls the water level of the sand tank by raising and lowering the water levels of the water inlet regulating tank and the water outlet regulating tank 15, utilizes the peristaltic pump to adjust the flow rate of the prepared solution, and the rainfall device is connected with the flow meter and the speed-regulating peristaltic pump, and the rainfall intensity is accurately adjusted by adjusting the flow rate of the peristaltic pump.

[0029] The present invention can monitor key parameters such as soil structure changes, water flow paths, pollutant distribution and concentration changes in real time by setting detection devices such as dissolved oxygen patches and sensors in the sand trough, and automatically process data through data analysis software to provide an intuitive graphical display, which is convenient for researchers to quickly capture experimental phenomena and laws.

[0030] The present invention can also more accurately simulate the water flow dynamics and pollutant migration process under irrigation and rainfall conditions through a precise irrigation and rainfall simulation system and a sand box structure with good sealing performance.

[0031] The present invention can also adopt nitrogen headspace technology, which can effectively exclude oxygen and maintain anaerobic conditions in groundwater, thereby more accurately evaluating the migration and transformation process of pollutants in an anaerobic environment.

[0054] The present invention also provides a test method for simulating the migration and transformation of pollutants in a prepared solution using the test device for simulating the migration and transformation of pollutants in a prepared solution, the method comprising the following steps:

[0055] Step 1, according to the soil sediment and aquifer structure of the actual field site, select the actual field soil sample and water-containing medium as the filling medium of the sand trough 21; according to the experimental needs, fill according to the natural bulk density of the soil sample and the aquifer medium; or according to the aquifer structure profile of the actual field site, quartz sand and clay of different mesh sizes are filled into the sand trough 21 in a certain proportion and order, and the quartz sand is first acid-washed and alkaline-washed to remove impurities before filling into the sand trough 21; different sand filling methods are used according to different types of quartz sand or soil, and the filling height is determined according to different types of quartz sand or soil, and it can be compacted once every 3 to 7 cm filling height; during the sample filling process, a layer-by-layer filling and layer-by-layer compaction method is adopted.

During this period, water passes through the baffle until it reaches the aquifer medium filled in the sand trough 21. When it is fully saturated with water, the water enters the water outlet well 19 through the porous baffle.

After injecting a sufficient amount of the water supply solution into the circulating water tank 1, firstly purge the residual top space of the circulating water tank 1 and the water inlet regulating tank 10 with nitrogen, and then use the sealing cover to press the plug to seal, and connect the circulating water tank 1 and the water inlet regulating tank 10 by installing a nitrogen protection connecting pipe to form a closed nitrogen protection environment.

[0058] Step 4: During the experiment, water supply solution is used to replace deionized water and injected into the sand tank 21. The height of the water inlet regulating tank 10 and the water outlet regulating tank 15 is adjusted to control the water level and seepage rate of the prepared solution. The water supply system can provide a flow rate of about 0.3 to 1 mL / min, and the prepared solution is continuously injected for 8 to 12 hours to make the internal environment of the sand box uniform and stable. The flow rate, flushing time, etc. can be adjusted according to the type of medium filled.

[0059] Set the sampling frequency, test the seepage velocity, use the dissolved oxygen membrane 28 to monitor the oxygen concentration in the sand tank 21 in real time, and synchronously monitor the changes in other relevant physical and chemical indicators through the pore water sampling hole 18 and the prepared solution sampling hole 20; obtain the water head height at each pressure measuring hole through the pressure measuring device, and calculate the permeability coefficient and hydraulic slope of each area.

[0060] Step 5. After the experiment, collect sediment medium samples at different layers to test the changing patterns of related indicators. Use deionized water instead of tracer solution to continue to pass into the sand tank 21, control the liquid injection rate, and detect the conductivity of the seepage fluid in the pore water sampling hole 18 and the prepared solution sampling hole 20 until the conductivity data drops below the background value, indicating that the flushing process has been completed.

[0061] Preferably, in step 4, the flow direction, flow velocity and swept area of ​​the water supply solution are tracked by injecting a tracer into the sand tank 21, the tracer is injected from the water inlet well 6, and samples are collected at the water outlet well 19 according to the tracer sampling frequency, the output of the tracer is monitored, and the tracer output curve is obtained, and then fitting is performed to observe the migration of the tracer and determine the distribution range of the diffusion zone, transition zone and convection zone, thereby reflecting the fluid movement law between the water inlet well 6 and the water outlet well 19;

[0062] Liquid is sampled through the pore water sampling hole 18 and the groundwater sampling hole 20. The liquid sampling time interval is inversely proportional to the seepage velocity. The seepage velocity is calculated by the amount of water discharged from the outlet well 19 of the sand trough 21. After the samples are collected, the conductivity is measured until the conductivity in the pore water sampling hole 18 and the groundwater sampling hole 20 reaches a peak value and remains stable. The acquired data is processed to obtain the concentration changes at different positions at the same time and at different times at the same position, and a concentration contour map is drawn.

The water level of the water inlet well 6 and the water outlet well 19 can be adjusted to adjust the water level of the prepared solution in the soil in the sand trough 21; adjust the flow rate of the prepared solution in the aquifer soil in the sand box; and evenly spray water to the upper surface of the aquifer soil in the sand trough 21 to simulate rainfall.

[0072] The first circulating water pump 5 can be a peristaltic pump, and the circulating water tank 1 is used to store the solution required for the experiment. The solution in the water inlet regulating tank 10 enters the water inlet regulating tank 10 after being connected to the peristaltic pump through a catheter, and then is connected to the water inlet 3 of the water inlet well through the water inlet regulating tank 10.

[0076] A certain volume of tap water is introduced into the sand trough 21, and the water pressure is used to observe and record whether there is water seepage or leakage at each connection part and surface of the sand trough 21. In this process, special attention should be paid to observe whether the water flow is abnormally seeping along the edge or bottom of the sand trough 21, and whether there are any unusual wet marks.

After adding a sufficient amount of prepared solution to the circulating water tank 1, in order to maintain the anaerobic nature of the prepared solution, the residual top space of the circulating water tank 1 and the water inlet regulating tank 10 is purged with nitrogen, and then the sealing cover is used for plugging. At the same time, the nitrogen protection connecting pipe connects the circulating water tank 1 and the water inlet regulating tank 10 to ensure that the nitrogen is sealed in the circulating water tank 1 and the water inlet regulating tank 10.

[0078] The front end of the sand trough 21 is provided with 70 sampling holes, including 30 pore water sampling holes 18 and 40 prepared solution sampling holes 20.

The dissolved oxygen data processing system 27 automatically converts the received signal into dissolved oxygen concentration information according to the temperature and pressure changes during the experiment, thereby realizing in-situ monitoring of the dissolved oxygen concentration.

[0082] A test method for simulating the migration and transformation of pollutants in groundwater using the test device for simulating the migration and transformation of pollutants in groundwater, the method comprising the following steps:

[0083] Pasting of dissolved oxygen diaphragm 28: When pasting the dissolved oxygen diaphragm 28, it is necessary to ensure that the detection surface of the diaphragm is in direct contact with the medium to be measured, and the pasting surface for pasting is firmly adhered to the inner wall of the sand tank 21. After the pasting work is completed, the entire system should be left to stand for 12 hours to ensure that the pasting glue used can be completely dried and achieve the best bonding effect. During this period, any external factors that may interfere with the curing process of the glue should be avoided to ensure the stability of the pasting. When the dissolved oxygen diaphragm 28 comes from the same production batch, only one of the sensors needs to be calibrated according to the attached instructions, and there is no need to calibrate each sensor separately.

[0084] Filling of sand trough 21: Paste gauze on the permeable baffles on both sides of sand trough 21 in advance to prevent medium particles from blocking the permeable holes. According to the soil sediments and aquifer structure of the actual field site, the actual field soil samples and water-containing media can be selected as the filling media of sand trough 21. According to the experimental needs, after certain pretreatment, fill according to the natural bulk density of soil samples and aquifer media; compact once every 5cm filling height to avoid the generation of voids and cracks, and at the same time prevent the generation of preferential flow, so that the medium in sand trough 21 is as close to the actual field soil and aquifer media as possible; according to the aquifer structure profile of the actual field site, quartz sand and clay of different mesh sizes can be filled into sand trough 21 in a certain proportion and order to ensure the authenticity and representativeness of the experimental conditions. Before filling the quartz sand into the sand trough 21, it is first acid-washed and alkaline-washed to remove impurities to reduce the possible interference with the experimental results. During the sample loading process, try to ensure consistent compaction density, and adopt a layer-by-layer filling and compaction method to ensure the compactness and uniformity of each layer of material to avoid differences in fluid migration characteristics caused by uneven compaction density.

[0085] The sand trough 21 is saturated with water: after the sand trough 21 is filled, deionized water is introduced into the water inlet regulating tank 10 through a peristaltic pump, and then input into the water inlet well 6 through the circulating water tank 1 to reach the set water inlet water level. During this period, water passes through the porous partition to the aquifer medium filled in the sand trough 21. When it is completely saturated with water, the water enters the water outlet well 19 through the porous partition. When it reaches the set water outlet level, the excess water will flow out through the water outlet well 19 and the water outlet regulating tank 15 to maintain the water level. During the process of the sand trough 21 being saturated with water, the water head in the sand trough 21 rises by 5 cm every time, and water is continued to be supplied after it stabilizes to completely exhaust the air in the sand trough 21. After the sand trough 21 is saturated with water, water is continued to be supplied.

[0086] Nitrogen headspace: After a sufficient amount of experimental solution is injected into the circulating water tank 1, in order to ensure the maintenance of its anaerobic properties, the nitrogen supply valve 12 of the nitrogen source is first opened to purge the residual headspace of the circulating water tank 1 and the water inlet regulating tank 10 with nitrogen, and then the sealing cover is used for plugging and sealing. At the same time, by installing a nitrogen protection connecting pipe, the circulating water tank 1 and the water inlet regulating tank 10 are effectively connected to form a closed nitrogen protection environment, thereby ensuring the continuous sealing and circulation of nitrogen in the circulating water tank 1 and the water inlet regulating tank 10.

[0087] Tracer collection, testing and processing: Sampling and testing work can be started after the tracer is injected. The sampling time interval is selected according to the seepage velocity. The seepage velocity is calculated by the amount of water discharged from the outlet of the sand trough 21. The faster the seepage velocity, the smaller the sampling time interval is set. Conversely, the time interval can be increased. After the sample is collected, the conductivity is measured until the conductivity in the pore water sampling hole 18 and the prepared solution sampling hole 20 reaches a peak value and remains stable. The acquired data is processed to obtain the concentration changes at different positions at the same time and at different times at the same position, draw a concentration contour map, observe the migration of the tracer and determine the distribution range of the diffusion zone, transition zone and convection zone.

[0088] Flushing of sand trough 21: After the experiment, deionized water is used to replace the tracer solution and continue to be introduced into sand trough 21. The introduction speed is controlled by a water pump. The conductivity of the seepage fluid in the pore water sampling hole 18 and the prepared solution sampling hole 20 is tested until the conductivity data drops below the background value, indicating that the flushing process has been completed.

[0089] Experimental water injection and monitoring: During the experiment, the infiltration water source is prepared according to the water chemical indicators of the prepared solution measured in the field, and the artificially prepared solution is used instead of deionized water to pass into the sand trough 21, and the heights of the water inlet regulating trough 10 and the water outlet regulating trough 15 are adjusted to control the water level and seepage rate of the prepared solution; pollutants can be input into the sand trough 21 at the top of the sand trough 21 by using a peristaltic pump, or pollutants can be directly added to the circulating water tank 1 to reach a preset concentration and enter the sand trough 21 together with the artificially prepared solution.

[0090] Simulation of irrigation or rainfall conditions: A designed rainfall device is used to simulate the rainfall process. A rainfall simulation device is provided above the sand box, and the rainfall simulation device includes: a rainfall pump, a flow meter, and a rainfall nozzle 13 and a rainfall water distribution plate 14 arranged in sequence from top to bottom; water from the water supply system enters the rainfall nozzle 13 through the rainfall pump, and a flow meter for adjusting the flow rate is connected between the rainfall pump and the rainfall nozzle 13; the rainfall nozzles 13 are evenly distributed directly above the sand trough 21; the rainfall water distribution plate 14 is evenly distributed with multiple filter holes, so that the water sprayed by the rainfall nozzle 13 can evenly reach the upper surface of the sand trough 21.

[0091] The rainfall pump adopts a speed-regulating peristaltic pump. The rainfall device is connected to the flow meter and the speed-regulating peristaltic pump. The rainfall intensity is accurately adjusted by adjusting the flow rate of the peristaltic pump. In addition, by rotating the lifting shafts of the water inlet regulating trough 10 and the water outlet regulating trough 15, the water inlet regulating trough 10 and the water outlet regulating trough 15 are moved vertically up and down to change the water level of the prepared solution, simulating the actual field irrigation process.

[0092] Sample collection and testing: During the experiment, the dissolved oxygen membrane 28 is used to monitor the oxygen concentration in the sand trough 21 in real time, the sampling frequency is set, and the seepage rate is tested. During the experiment, sampling is carried out through the pore water sampling hole 18 and the groundwater sampling hole on the front side of the sand trough 21 to simultaneously monitor the changes in other relevant physical and chemical indicators; the water head height at each pressure measuring hole is obtained through the pressure measuring device, and the permeability coefficient and hydraulic gradient of each area are calculated; after the experiment, sediment medium samples are collected in layers to test the changes in relevant indicators.

Step 3: prepare a water supply solution according to the groundwater chemical indicators measured in the field, inject a sufficient amount of the water supply solution into the circulating water tank, first purge the residual top space of the circulating water tank and the water inlet regulating tank with nitrogen, then use a sealing cover to perform a plug seal, and connect the circulating water tank and the water inlet regulating tank by installing a nitrogen protection connecting pipe to form a closed nitrogen protection environment; Step 4: During the experiment, water supply solution is used instead of deionized water to inject into the sand tank, and the height of the water inlet regulating tank and the water outlet regulating tank is adjusted to control the groundwater level and seepage rate; the sampling frequency is set, the seepage rate is tested, and the dissolved oxygen membrane is used to monitor the oxygen concentration in the sand tank in real time. The change rules of other relevant physical and chemical indicators are synchronously monitored through the pore water sampling holes and the groundwater sampling holes; the water head height at each pressure measuring hole is obtained through the pressure measuring device, and the permeability coefficient and hydraulic gradient of each area are calculated; Step 5. After the experiment, collect sediment medium samples at each layer and test the change patterns of relevant indicators. Use deionized water instead of tracer solution to continue to pass into the sand tank, control the liquid injection rate, and detect the conductivity of the seepage fluid in the pore water sampling holes and groundwater sampling holes until the conductivity data drops below the background value, indicating that the flushing process has been completed.

10. The test method for simulating the migration and transformation of pollutants in groundwater according to claim 9, characterized in that: In step 4, the flow direction, flow velocity and swept area of ​​the water supply solution are tracked by injecting tracers into the sand tank, injecting tracers from the water inlet well, sampling at the water outlet well according to the tracer sampling frequency, monitoring the output of tracers, and obtaining the tracer output curve, which is then fitted to observe the migration of tracers and determine the distribution range of the diffusion zone, transition zone and convection zone, thereby reflecting the fluid movement law between the water inlet well and the water outlet well; Liquid is sampled through the pore water sampling holes and groundwater sampling holes. The liquid sampling time interval is inversely proportional to the seepage velocity. The seepage velocity is calculated by the amount of water discharged from the outlet well of the sand trough. After the samples are collected, the conductivity is measured until the conductivity in the pore water sampling holes and groundwater sampling holes reaches a peak value and remains stable. The acquired data is processed to obtain the concentration changes at different locations at the same time and at different times at the same location, and a concentration contour map is drawn. In step five, irrigation or rainfall conditions are simulated, a rainfall sprinkler is set above the sand box to simulate rainfall, and a rainfall water distribution plate with multiple filter holes evenly distributed is set below the rainfall sprinkler, so that the water sprayed by the rainfall sprinkler can evenly reach the upper surface of the sand trough.
