Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of tailings pond safety monitoring, and particularly relates to a deformation monitoring system for a tailings pond and a data fusion method thereof. Background Art

[0002] China is rich in mineral resources, and the reserves of some mineral species rank among the top in the world. However, the overall characteristics of China's mineral resources are that there are many lean ores and few rich ores, many polymetallic ores and few single - mineral ores, the metal grade is generally low, and a large amount of solid waste is formed during the mining and beneficiation processes, resulting in a large number of mining reservoirs. The development of the mining industry has made great contributions to China's economic development, but at the same time, it has also brought serious environmental pollution, making mining enterprises and society face severe environmental comprehensive treatment problems.

[0003] The development and utilization of mines often produce a large amount of tailings. At present, there is no economically effective treatment method for the tailings of concentrators. However, the tailings often contain various toxic and harmful substances, and direct discharge will cause serious pollution and ecological damage to the air, groundwater, and soil around the mine. Therefore, it is crucial to use a tailings pond formed by building a dam to intercept the valley mouth or enclosing land as a place to store the tailings or other industrial waste residues discharged after ore separation in metal or non - metal mines.

[0004] At present, most tailings are stored in tailings ponds near the mining areas. With the changes in weathering and other conditions around the tailings ponds, the tailings pond has become an artificial debris - flow hazard source with high potential energy. Once a dam - break accident occurs, a debris - flow with great destructive power will rush downstream, causing great harm to the human living environment, such as the surrounding air, groundwater, soil, vegetation, and ecological environment. Therefore, the safety monitoring of tailings ponds is of great significance for strengthening the safety supervision of tailings ponds, grasping the safety status of tailings ponds, and reducing the occurrence of tailings pond accidents, etc.

[0005] Currently, the main technical parameters for the safe operation of tailings ponds in China, such as the deformation displacement of the dam body, the water level in the pond, and the buried depth of the phreatic line, are all measured manually on - site at regular intervals using traditional instruments. The workload of safety monitoring is large, and it is affected by many factors such as weather, manpower, and on - site conditions, resulting in large systematic errors and manual errors. At the same time, manual monitoring also has the characteristics of being unable to monitor the technical parameters of tailings ponds in a timely manner and being difficult to grasp the safety technical indicators of tailings ponds in a timely manner. These will all affect the safety production and management level of tailings ponds. Therefore, China's mine safety production urgently needs technologies and systems for real - time and automated monitoring of tailings ponds.

[0006] The on-line monitoring system for tailings ponds utilizes sensor technology, signal transmission technology, computer graphics and image processing technology, network technology, and software engineering technology to monitor various key technical indicators affecting the safety of tailings ponds and dams from an all-round perspective that combines macro and micro aspects, theory and practice. Based on the recorded historical data and existing real-time data, it analyzes future trends to assist enterprises and the government in making decisions, improving the safety guarantee level of tailings ponds, and effectively preventing and curbing the occurrence of major accidents.

[0007] Currently, the more commonly used monitoring methods for tailings ponds mainly analyze the monitoring data of some single points. Firstly, the monitoring data of some single points is not comprehensive enough. Secondly, there are different errors in the monitoring results according to different monitoring means. In addition, such monitoring results cannot accurately grasp the deformation and its strength of the tailings pond as a whole. Finally, it is difficult to obtain information about the danger brought by the deformation of the tailings pond, or whether the tailings pond is safe, which is what we want to know more. Summary of the Invention

[0094] The deformation monitoring system further includes a real-time deformation monitoring data module and a historical monitoring data module. The real-time deformation monitoring data module transmits the data to the data preprocessing module, and the preprocessing process includes data cleaning, data integration, and data transformation. Data cleaning refers to cleaning the unreasonable parts of the monitoring data, such as the outliers in the monitoring; data integration refers to organically concentrating the data from different sensor sources and different formats logically or physically; data transformation refers to corresponding the data with different characteristics and different spaces in space and time.

[0095] The results of the data preprocessing module are combined with the historical monitoring data module to analyze and process the data in the statistical feature analysis module. Statistical feature analysis includes data association, error elimination, etc. Then, after fusing the data at multiple levels in the data multi-level fusion module, the fusion results are transmitted to the data storage and management module for management and then transmitted to the historical monitoring data module for retention and display. Considering engineering practicability and real-time performance, the present invention first performs fusion directly on the acquired raw data layer, and conducts data synthesis and analysis before the preprocessing of various sensors. Then, statistical features are extracted from the data of each sensor and fused at the feature layer. Finally, decision-level fusion of the data is performed in the safety assessment and early warning module for display and early warning.

[0096] Among them, combining engineering feasibility and real-time performance, the algorithm executed in the data multi-level fusion module is a weighted fusion scheme. Weights of the monitoring data of each sensor are determined considering the different importance and stability of the monitoring data of each sensor, and then the data are weighted and averaged to obtain the average value of each displacement amount and the average displacement rate at different unit times, which represents the displacement intensity of the tailings dam, thus better characterizing the deformation, safety, and early warning conditions of the tailings dam.

[0097] The multi-sensor based tailings dam deformation monitoring system and its data fusion method proposed in this patent can better realize the automatic monitoring of the tailings dam online, and accurately achieve the real-time performance, authenticity, stability, and accuracy of the monitoring data, so as to effectively help mining enterprises master the deformation conditions of the tailings dam and perform risk control for safe production. The multi-sensor based tailings dam deformation monitoring system and its data fusion method mainly consist of two parts: a deformation monitoring plan and a data processing algorithm. By using a variety of sensor monitoring and data processing technologies, combining macro and micro aspects, the key technical indicators for monitoring the safety of the tailings dam are monitored. Data analysis is carried out based on all historical records to assist enterprises and the government in making decisions, improving the safety guarantee level of the tailings dam, and effectively preventing and curbing the occurrence of major accidents.

[0098] The present invention mainly measures the displacement change data of the dam body, including internal displacement (internal displacement monitoring mainly focuses on the stability monitoring of the tailings inside the dam), external displacement (external displacement monitoring mainly focuses on the stability monitoring of the soil layer outside the dam body), internal displacement change rate, and external displacement change rate. At the same time, the monitoring data set is analyzed and processed, and early warnings are given for the deformation intensity and safety of the tailings dam based on the results of data processing, accurately meeting the safety production requirements of enterprises and effectively preventing and curbing the occurrence of serious and particularly serious accidents.

[0099] The present invention realizes functions such as the acquisition, processing, and integration of tailings dam deformation monitoring data. The main data includes external displacement data, internal displacement data, etc. During the software design process, improvements have been made to the acquisition and calculation methods of multiple data;

[0100] I. Application of multi-sensor multi-layer information fusion in tailings pond monitoring: The present invention preprocesses various monitoring results such as deformation data of each point in the tailings pond at different times, stores them in a database in a certain format, and conducts trend analysis on historical data at the same time, realizes multi-layer information fusion of the multi-sensor acquisition layer, data processing layer and decision-making layer, and makes early warning judgments according to the alarm thresholds of various parameters, and then judges and makes decisions on the overall deformation situation of the tailings pond, obtains a monitoring safety assessment and decision-making with better performance than a single sensor, and further stores and manages the fused data.

[0101] II. Analysis of multi-point relative displacement in deformation monitoring: Since the deformation information of a single monitoring point in deformation monitoring cannot reflect the actual shape of the overall deformation, the present invention uses the absolute numerical data of external displacement and internal displacement, analyzes the average displacement of multiple monitoring points according to the multi-point relative displacement, and calculates the average displacement rate of the monitoring points and the intensity of the displacement in time units such as hours, days, and months, so as to reflect the spatial state and time characteristics of the shape, size and position change of the deformed body from the entire monitoring period and as a whole, which is very helpful for the early warning of the monitoring system.

[0102] III. Internal displacement calculation scheme: The conventional method for internal displacement is to install multiple (3 - 15) inclinometer sensors in the monitoring well and calculate the displacement of each internal point and the comprehensive displacement from bottom to top. In this invention, the method of accumulating and calculating the change of displacement of each internal detection point from top to bottom is adopted. This can effectively reduce the installation cost, engineering difficulty, maintenance, etc. of multi-sensors, and improve the feasibility and stability of the monitoring system.

[0103] IV. Proposing a monitoring index for internal displacement acceleration: Internal displacement is an important index for monitoring the deformation of the tailings pond dam. When the internal displacement rate suddenly increases, it often indicates the risk of possible collapse. Therefore, calculating the acceleration of the internal displacement rate and making safety predictions according to the value of this index is of great significance.

[0104] V. Proposing a monitoring index for dam body displacement rate: The dam body displacement mainly includes internal displacement and external displacement, and the monitoring indexes include the absolute value of displacement, the displacement rate value, and the displacement acceleration value. On this basis, the present invention patent proposes the concept of the dam body displacement rate based on the combination of internal displacement and external displacement. The external displacement rate data obtained from all external displacement monitoring points of a certain section are weighted and averaged according to the importance of each monitoring point to obtain the external displacement rate of the section; the internal displacement rate data obtained from all internal displacement monitoring points of a certain section are weighted and averaged according to the importance of each monitoring point to obtain the internal displacement rate of the section. Then, the two are calculated according to a certain weight value to obtain the dam body section displacement rate, and then compared with the early warning values of each level for early warning.
