[0002] With the rapid development of the nonferrous metals industry, acidic wastewater generated during mining and mineral processing has become a significant source of heavy metal pollution. Acidic wastewater generated during nonferrous metal mining and processing is characterized by large volumes, complex and variable pollutant components, and strong environmental mobility. To date, acidic wastewater has not been effectively managed and utilized, seriously hindering sustainable socioeconomic development and impacting scientific decision-making. Current technology for simulating heavy metal emission fluxes from acidic wastewater faces the following bottlenecks:

[0003] (1) Lack of quantification of the entire process: Traditional research focuses on the problem of heavy metals in a certain production link or specific process, and lacks a systematic quantitative study of the material migration of the entire process of "mining-ore dressing-wastewater treatment-tailings", resulting in an unclear material migration path.

[0133] L means below the detection limit;

[0134] S22: Establish pipeline and tank leakage emission models to simulate the heavy metal emission flux of acidic wastewater;

[0135] The impact of wastewater on soil heavy metals is divided into pipeline leakage and pool leakage.

[0145]

[0146]

[0147] S23: Uncertainty analysis of heavy metal emission fluxes from acidic wastewater leaks;

[0148] ① Set the probability distribution for parameters such as heavy metal concentration of acidic wastewater and operation time in the model.

[0149] Probability distribution of heavy metal concentrations in acidic wastewater;

[0150] By measuring the concentration of heavy metals in acidic wastewater in pipes and tanks The probability density function of heavy metal concentrations in acidic wastewater is a geometric normal distribution (Equations 9 and 10);

[0151]

[0152] where μ c and μ' c are the logarithmic mean values ​​of heavy metal concentrations in pipeline and pool acidic wastewater, and Represent the standard deviation of heavy metal concentrations in pipeline and pool acidic wastewater respectively.

[0153] The running time T obeys uniform distribution (uniform distribution), and its probability density function is:

[0154]

[0155] Other parameters k i,wastewater(pipe) and k i,wastewater(pond) is the certainty value; L pipe The probability distribution of pipeline length is geometric normal distribution, S pond The probability distribution of the pool area is geometric normal distribution;

[0156] ②Simulating model uncertainty in CrystalBall.

[0157] Define the hypothesis unit;

[0158] In Excel, the distribution type is established based on the acidic wastewater heavy metal concentration, operation time, pipe length and tank area;

[0159] Define the decision variable D i,wastewater(pipe) and D i,wastewater(pond) Set them as prediction units respectively and run formulas (7) and (8).

[0160] The number of simulations was set to 1000, and the probability density curve of the emission flux was finally obtained ( Figure 7 ), a comprehensive analysis of the emission flux simulation results was conducted to obtain a 95% confidence interval for the emission flux, thus realizing uncertainty analysis of heavy metal emissions from acidic wastewater.

[0161] S31: Spatial distribution of leakage in pipes and tanks;

[0162] The pollution range of pool and pipeline leakage is distributed within a 0.5m radius around the pool and pipeline. Therefore, the pollution range of pipeline and pool bodies was analyzed using the ArcGIS buffer tool. Based on the pipeline and pool bodies, a buffer zone with a width of 0.5m was established around each pipeline and pool body to demonstrate the spatial impact of the emission flux of heavy metals in the wastewater of pipelines and pools due to leakage.

[0163] S32: spatial interpolation of soil heavy metals at the enterprise scale;

[0164] ① Analysis of heavy metal content in soil at actual enterprise sites;

[0165] According to the Technical Guidelines for Investigation of Soil Pollution Status in Construction Land (HJ25.1-2019) and the Technical Guidelines for Risk Control and Remediation of Soil Pollution in Construction Land (HJ25.2-2019), the site was divided into a grid with a resolution of 100 × 100 m using a systematic point distribution method combined with the distribution of pipelines and tanks during the on-site investigation. Sampling points were set within the grid and soil samples were collected. Heavy metals in the soil were digested using HNO3-H2O2, and the heavy metal content in the soil was determined and analyzed using ICP-MS.

[0166] Heavy metals in nonferrous metal mining sites are generally pollution-free at a depth of about 6 m, so it can be assumed that all exogenous heavy metals in the soil are contained within a sampling depth of 6 m.

[0167] ②Inverse distance weighted interpolation analysis of total soil heavy metal content;

[0168] The heavy metal concentration distribution map was drawn using the inverse distance weighted method (IDW) in ArcGIS, and the search radius was set to 1.5 times the grid side length.

[0169] Based on the grid-scale heavy metal concentrations, the total amount of heavy metal pollution at the site was calculated using formula (9).

[0170] S = C × H × A × D (9);

[0171] In the formula, S is the total amount of heavy metals in the soil of nonferrous metal enterprises (kg), C is the heavy metal content at the grid scale (mg / kg), H is the soil thickness (6m), and A is the grid area (m 2 ), D is the soil bulk density (kg / m 3 ).

[0172] S33: Spatial correlation Moran's index analysis;

[0173] The bivariate Moran index analysis (Formula 10) was performed on the heavy metal emission flux caused by acid wastewater leakage and the total amount of heavy metals in the soil to analyze the spatial interaction between the two, and the spatial correlation result map was output in ArcGIS.

[0174]

[0175] In the formula, and Variables a and b represent the heavy metal discharge flux of acidic wastewater and the total amount of heavy metals in soil at locations i and j, respectively. Variables a and b represent the heavy metal discharge flux of wastewater and the total amount of heavy metals in the grid, respectively. w ij is the spatial weight matrix of position i and j, which is calculated based on the Euclidean distance weight of position i and j. ab The local Moran index represents the a attribute at grid i and the b attribute at grid j. ab When it is significantly positive, the wastewater heavy metal discharge flux at grid i has a significant local positive correlation with the total amount of soil heavy metals at grid j; when I ab When it is significantly negative, it is considered that the wastewater heavy metal discharge flux at grid i has a significant local negative correlation with the total amount of soil heavy metals at grid j; when I ab If it is not significant, it is considered that there is no obvious spatial interaction between the wastewater heavy metal discharge flux at grid i and the total amount of soil heavy metals at grid j.

[0176] The spatial interaction between heavy metal discharge fluxes from acidic wastewater and total heavy metal content in soils revealed that high-to-high Moran index clusters were primarily located in production areas, and that heavy metal discharges from acidic wastewater and total heavy metal content in soils were spatially consistent. This spatial analysis validated the practicality of the acidic wastewater heavy metal discharge flux model.

[0177] The present invention adopts a method for calculating the heavy metal emission flux of acidic wastewater in the whole process of material flow, and constructs the spatial interaction between the wastewater emission flux and the total distribution of heavy metals in soil by performing a bivariate local Moran index analysis on the obtained wastewater emission flux and the total amount of heavy metals in soil, and then verifies the emission flux, providing directional role and guidance for the soil pollution management work of non-ferrous metal enterprises.
