One of the currently widely applied processes mainly adopts O2+CO2 injection to complete the uranium mining demand through a physical and chemical reaction. In the actual process production, it is found that, due to insufficient oxygen injection pressure or reverse water in the liquid injection pipeline, liquid appears in the oxygen pipeline, and steam blockage easily occurs, which seriously affects the oxygen injection effect, and in winter, the pipeline may be frozen. Since the oxygen pipeline is a closed system, it is difficult to remove the liquid, so the gas-liquid separation device is researched to solve the problem. CONTENT OF THE NEW TYPE

[0014] An in-situ leaching oxygen filling gas-liquid separation device, which comprises ① gas inlet pipe, ② gas outlet pipe, ③ liquid level switch, ④ liquid storage tank, ⑤ pressure relief valve, and ⑥ device support. Oxygen enters through the gas inlet pipe and is discharged by the gas outlet pipe. The liquid in the above-mentioned two pipelines will fall into the liquid storage tank due to gravity. When the liquid reaches the specified liquid level, the liquid level switch drives the pressure relief valve to open. Since the internal pressure of the device is greater than the external pressure, the liquid will automatically discharge from the storage tank. When the liquid level drops, the liquid level switch resets the pressure valve to close ⑤, and continues to collect liquid. Details are shown in the following figure. Figure 1 .
