Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of petrochemical pollution leakage monitoring technology, and in particular to a method, system, electronic device and storage medium for detecting pollution leakage at petrochemical sites based on soil gas detection. Background Technology
[0002] Leaks of petroleum and other organic solvents can cause varying degrees of soil and groundwater pollution, seriously impacting ecological security and human health. Due to the widespread and complex network of underground pipelines and structures in petrochemical sites, leaks are difficult to detect and locate. Traditional leak detection technologies for petrochemical storage and transportation equipment often rely on changes in pipeline acoustic signals, medium temperature, and pressure to determine if a leak has occurred. These passive detection methods suffer from low sensitivity, complex data analysis, high equipment costs, and difficulty in pinpointing the leak location.
[0003] Existing technologies include several methods for leak detection. For example, CN111982415A discloses a pipeline leak detection method and device. This method monitors and photographs the equipment using a camera and analyzes image color changes to determine if a leak has occurred. However, this method requires spraying industrial pigments onto the monitored equipment, complex image processing, and suffers from low sensitivity and blind spots, thus failing to accurately and comprehensively detect leaks. CN112857699A discloses a method for leak detection and location in long-distance oil and gas pipelines using acoustic vector sensors. This method deploys acoustic vector sensors in a three-dimensional spatial distribution, establishes a database of leak sounds in long-distance oil and gas pipelines through data acquisition, then uses an array of acoustic vector sensors to sense the leak sounds, and uses the autocorrelation matrix eigenvalue decomposition of the entire array's received data matrix to analyze the database and determine the leak location. This method requires a complex sensor array, has high technical requirements, is economically inefficient, and cannot detect minute, silent leaks.
[0004] Studies have found that aromatic and aliphatic compounds in gasoline readily volatilize when exposed to the environment, transforming into gaseous volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that enter the ambient atmosphere. Therefore, chemical analysis of soil gas can be used to detect fuel leaks in underground storage tanks and pipelines. Soil gas-based leak detection technology involves analyzing the air within the pores of soil particles in the vadose zone to determine the presence of VOCs, thereby identifying potential leaks of organic solvents such as petroleum.
[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a soil gas-based pollution leak detection device and specific detection methods that can not only quickly detect whether there is a leak in the storage and transportation equipment of petrochemical sites, but also quickly locate the leak point.
[0006] The information disclosed in this background section is intended only to enhance the understanding of the overall background of the invention and should not be construed as an admission or in any way implying that the information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art.

[0050] The methods, systems, electronic devices, and storage media of the present invention are described in more detail below by way of specific embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments are merely exemplary and the present invention is not limited thereto.
[0051] Example 1
[0052] This embodiment is a physical device embodiment, providing a soil gas-based pollution leak detection device. For example... Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the device includes a permeable sand layer 1, an extraction pipeline 2, an extraction pump 3, and a gas detector 4. The permeable sand layer 1 is laid at the corresponding locations of the storage and transportation equipment in the petrochemical site; specifically, it can be laid as follows: Figure 1 As shown, it can be laid above the oil pipeline, or as... Figure 2 As shown, the permeable sand layer 1 is laid along the circumference of the oil storage tank. Preferably, but not limitingly, the width of the permeable sand layer 1 can be 1–2.5 m, and it may include a fine sand layer, a medium sand layer, and a coarse sand layer arranged sequentially from bottom to top, with each layer having a thickness of 0.3–0.6 m. The fine sand layer 1-1 is selected from sand with a permeability coefficient between 1.5 and 4.5 m / d, preferably 2.5–3.5 m / d, and an average particle size of 0.05–0.15 mm, preferably 0.075–0.1 mm. This selection of permeability coefficient and particle size can effectively adsorb pollutants and prevent leaked liquid fuel or compounds from entering the upper layer. The medium sand layer 1-2 is selected from sand with a permeability coefficient between 4.5 and 8 m / d, preferably 5–6.5 m / d, and an average particle size of 0.2–0.5 mm, preferably 0.35–0.45 mm. This can increase the porosity of the soil layer and accelerate the volatilization of leaked fuel or compounds. The coarse sand layer 1-3 is selected with a permeability coefficient between 15 and 25 m / d, preferably 18.5 to 21.5 m / d, and an average particle size of 1.0 to 2.5 mm, preferably 1.5 to 2.0 mm. The coarse sand layer 1-3 can accelerate the gas entering the extraction pipe 2, and can also filter out impurities entering the extraction pipe 2. The extraction pipe 2 is laid in the coarse sand layer 1-3.
[0053] Further as Figure 1 , 2As shown, the extraction pipeline 2 comprises multiple unit sections, each unit section having an interconnected gas guide pipe 2-1 and a porous pipe 2-2. The extraction pipeline 2 is horizontally positioned within the coarse sand layer 1-3 of the permeable sand layer 1. Specifically, the extraction pipeline 2 is divided into units of a certain length, each unit containing a section of gas guide pipe 2-1 and a section of porous pipe 2-2, which are connected by a threaded seal. The preferred length ratio of the gas guide pipe 2-1 to the porous pipe 2-2 is (10-25):1. The gas guide pipe 2-1 serves as a gas delivery pipeline, a non-absorbent sealed gas pipeline with smooth inner and outer walls, made of polymer materials or cast iron pipe, preferably polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) pipe. The porous pipe 2-2 serves as an external gas inlet, a non-absorbent open pipeline with porous walls. The inner diameter of the air guide tube 2-1 is between 1 and 50 mm, preferably 3 to 10 mm, and the ratio of the outer diameter to the inner diameter is less than 2.7. The opening area of the porous tube 2-2 is 15% to 40% of the wall surface, and the opening diameter is between 1.5 and 2.0 mm.
[0054] Further as Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the vacuum pump 3 is connected to one end of the vacuum pipeline 2, and is used to supply air to storage and transportation equipment (e.g., Figure 1 Oil pipelines or Figure 2 The pump powers the extraction of VOCs gas that leaks from the oil storage tank and volatilizes into the extraction pipeline. Preferably, but not limitingly, the extraction pump is an explosion-proof pump, and the inner diameter R of the duct and the rated flow rate Q of the pump satisfy R... 2 / Q<1.6*10 -6 .
[0055] Further as Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the gas detector 4 is connected to the vacuum pump 3 and is used to monitor VOCs gas (i.e., leaked gas) formed by the volatilization of leaked gas from oil pipelines or gas storage tanks. The gas detector 4 can realize the quantitative detection of VOCs content in the gas, and preferably uses photoionization detectors (PID).
[0056] Using the apparatus of this embodiment, VOCs gas generated from leaks in oil pipelines or storage tanks and volatilization in the soil can be introduced into an extraction pipeline, and the VOCs gas content can be monitored by a gas detector to determine whether a leak has occurred in the storage and transportation equipment of a petrochemical site. Furthermore, based on the apparatus of this embodiment, the method of Embodiment 2 of the present invention can further accurately and quickly predict the location of leaks.
[0057] Example 2
[0058] Combination Figure 3As shown, this embodiment provides a method for detecting pollution leaks based on soil gas. This method is implemented using the physical device described in Embodiment 1 and includes the following steps:
[0059] Step S101: A suction pipeline, consisting of evenly spaced air guide pipes and porous pipes, is laid out in the permeable sand layer at the corresponding location of the storage and transportation equipment. Basic parameter data of the air guide pipes, porous pipes, and suction pump are then obtained. Specifically, the layout of the suction pipeline can be found in Example 1. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The basic parameters required in this step include, but are not limited to: the pumping flow rate and inlet pressure of the pump; the inner diameter and length of the gas delivery pipe; the inner and outer diameters, length, and permeability coefficient of the porous pipe. In addition to the above-mentioned basic equipment parameters, background atmospheric pressure and the dynamic viscosity of soil gas at 20°C are also required. Using these known parameters and the following mathematical model of airflow distribution obtained by the inventors, the transmission time of the leaking gas in the pumping pipeline can be calculated, thereby determining the specific location of the leak.
[0060] Step S102: Based on the basic parameter data in step S101, calculate the gas flow rate of the leaked gas in the gas guide pipe and the porous pipe in each unit pipe segment using the airflow distribution model. The gas flow in the extraction pipeline can be divided into two parts: the gas flow in the gas guide pipe and the gas flow in the porous pipe. The gas flow in the gas guide pipe conforms to the law of laminar flow of fluid in a horizontal circular pipe. According to the inventor's research, formula (1) can be used to simulate the gas flow law in the gas guide pipe. The gas flow in the porous pipe conforms to the basic law of fluid movement in a porous medium. According to the inventor's research, formula (2) can be used to simulate the gas flow law in the porous pipe. The model calculation starts from the first segment near the extraction pump and then proceeds segment by segment towards the far end of the pipeline. The airflow distribution model specifically includes the following formulas (1) to (4):
[0061]
[0062] Among them, Q dq P is the airflow rate in the air delivery tube, in L / min; in P represents the absolute pressure at the inlet of the air delivery tube, in Pa; out P is the absolute pressure at the outlet of the air delivery tube, in Pa; b For reference atmospheric pressure (value is 101.325 x 10⁻⁶), 3 ), Pa; μ is the dynamic viscosity of soil gas at 20℃, Pa·s; R is the inner diameter of the gas delivery pipe, m; L is the length of the gas delivery pipe, m; for the first unit pipe section, Q dq P is the pumping flow rate of the air pump. outThe absolute pressure P at the inlet of the first unit pipe section is calculated using formula (1), which is the inlet pressure of the air pump. in .
[0063]
[0064] Among them, Q por ρ is the airflow velocity in the porous tube, L / min; K is the permeability coefficient of the porous tube, m / d; h is the length of the porous tube, m; P0 is the background atmospheric pressure (value is the same as P). b The same, also 101.325x10 3 ), Pa; P w The absolute pressure inside the porous tube is Pa. In each unit tube section, the airflow enters the guide tube through the porous tube, and the absolute pressure P at the inlet of the guide tube is... in Equal to the internal absolute pressure P of the porous tube w ;P b For reference atmospheric pressure, Pa;r e The outer diameter of the porous tube is in meters (m); r w denoted as the inner diameter of the porous tube, in meters (m).
[0065] Q dq,i+1 =Q dq,i -Q por,i Formula (3);
[0066] Among them, Q dq,i+1 Q is the airflow rate in the (i+1)th segment of the air duct, in L / min; dq,i Q is the airflow rate in the i-th segment of the air duct, in L / min; por,i Let be the airflow rate in the i-th segment of the porous tube, in L / min.
[0067]
[0068] Among them, P out,i+1 P is the absolute pressure at the outlet of the (i+1)th segment of the air duct, in Pa; w,i Let be the internal absolute pressure of the i-th segment of the porous tube, in Pa.
[0069] This step uses formulas (1) to (4) above to calculate the airflow rate in the gas guide pipe and the perforated pipe of each unit pipe section. Specifically, for the first unit pipe section connected to the suction pump, Q dq,1 P is the pumping flow rate of the air pump. out,1 The inlet pressure of the air pump is given by the formula (1), which contains initial measurable parameters. μ and L are also known. Therefore, the inlet pressure of the air guide pipe in the first unit section can be calculated by using the formula (1). in,1 In each unit pipe section, the airflow enters the guide pipe through the porous pipe, and the absolute pressure P at the inlet of the guide pipe... inEqual to the internal absolute pressure P of the porous tube w That is, P w,1 =P in,1 Therefore, Q of the porous pipe in the first unit segment can be obtained by continuing to use formula (2). por,1 At this point, the parameter calculation for the first unit pipe section is complete. Then, Q is obtained according to formula (3). dq,2 Then, using the same method as in the first unit, P is obtained sequentially. in,2 P w,2 Q por,2 .
[0070] Step S103: Based on the gas flow rate of the leaked gas in the gas guide pipe and the porous pipe in step S102, calculate the transmission time of the leaked gas in each unit pipe segment. Specifically, the following method is used:
[0071] When a leak occurs below the Kth section of the gas duct, the volatilized leaked gas enters the permeable sand layer and then enters the extraction pipeline through the Kth section of the porous pipe. Then:
[0072]
[0073] Among them, Q dq,k The airflow rate in the k-th segment of the air duct is expressed in L / min.
[0074]
[0075] Among them, t k Let A be the transit time of the leaked gas in the k-th segment of the gas duct, in minutes; k L is the cross-sectional area of the air passage in the k-th segment of the air duct; k Let be the length of the k-th segment of the air duct.
[0076] This step uses formulas (5) and (6) to calculate the transmission time of the leaked gas in the Kth segment of the gas duct.
[0077] Step S104: The transmission time of the leaked gas in each unit pipe segment calculated in step S103 is accumulated, and the location of the leak point is determined by the total transmission time. The total transmission time is also the detection time T of the leaked gas, specifically:
[0078]
[0079] Based on the physical device of Embodiment 1, using steps S101 to S104 of this embodiment, the airflow distribution of soil gas in the extraction pipeline can be calculated using formulas (1) to (4). Then, formulas (5) to (7) are used to calculate the transmission time of leaked gas VOCs in each unit pipe section, thereby locating the leak point. The method of this embodiment can minimize the sampling volume and monitoring cost. At the same time, based on the physical detection device of Embodiment 1, a mathematical model of airflow distribution is constructed, which can accurately and quickly predict the leak location based on the detection results. This not only greatly reduces the complexity of on-site work, but also achieves low-cost and high-precision leak location prediction.
[0080] The following is based on Figure 2 The oil storage tank leak detection and specific calculation process involved in the article is given as a concrete example, which includes the airflow rate Q and the leakage gas transmission time t of each unit pipe section. k The leak gas detection time T is compiled into the table below. The actual detection time is compared with the calculated leak gas detection time T in the table. If the actual detection time is close to or equal to the calculated detection time T, it can be determined that the pollution leak occurred in the soil layer below the Kth unit pipe section. This specific example verifies the technical effect of the invention through experiments, which are explained in detail below:
[0081] like Figure 2 As shown, a permeable sand layer with a width of 1 meter is laid along the bottom edge of the oil storage tank. From bottom to top, fine sand, medium sand, and coarse sand layers are laid in sequence, with each layer having a thickness of 0.3m. The permeability coefficient of the fine sand layer is 2.5m / d, and the average particle size is 0.075mm; the permeability coefficient of the medium sand layer is 5m / d, and the average particle size is 0.35mm; the permeability coefficient of the coarse sand layer is 18.5m / d, and the average particle size is 1.5mm.
[0082] The extraction pipeline is laid horizontally along the bottom edge of the oil storage tank within the coarse sand layer of the permeable sand layer. The total length of the extraction pipeline is 21m, divided into 1.05m units. Each unit contains a 1m long guide pipe and a 0.05m long perforated pipe, which are connected by a threaded seal. Both the guide pipe and the perforated pipe are made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). The guide pipe has an inner diameter of 6mm, the perforated pipe has an inner diameter of 3mm and an outer diameter of 5mm, and the perforated area of the perforated pipe wall accounts for 15% of the total area, with an orifice diameter of 1.5mm. An explosion-proof extraction pump with a flow rate of 15L / min and an inlet pressure of 81KPa is used, and a photoionization detector (PID) is employed as the gas detection system.
[0083] First, activate the PID controller under ambient air conditions for initialization. Once the instrument readings stabilize, connect it to the detection device of this invention, turn on the vacuum pump, and record the PID detection data every 20 seconds. Using gasoline as a simulated pollutant, pour 0.5L of gasoline into the soil layer below the 20th unit section of the vacuum pipeline to simulate a tank leak scenario. Continue running the detection device and record the VOCs detection time.
[0084] Based on the test results, the curve of VOCs concentration changing with the detection time was plotted as follows: Figure 4 . Figure 4 As can be seen from the data, the PID started detecting VOCs at 12.6 minutes, which is the actual detection time T. s =12.6min.
[0085] The airflow distribution mathematical model provided by this invention is used below to locate the specific leak location of the oil storage tank. The initial parameter is: Q dq,1 =15L / min, P out,1 =81×10 3 Pa, P b =101.325x10 3 Pa, μ=7×10 -5 Pa·s, R=0.006m, L=1m, total number of units n=20, r e =0.005m; r w =0.003m, h=0.06m, k=120m / d. Substituting the initial parameters into formulas (1) to (4), the airflow rate in the gas guide pipe and the porous pipe in each unit pipe section can be calculated one by one. Then, formulas (5) and (6) can be used to calculate the transmission time of the leaked gas in the Kth section of the gas guide pipe. By adding the time of the leaked gas in the first section to the Kth section of the gas guide pipe, the total transmission time of the leaked gas in the extraction pipeline can be obtained. The calculation results are shown in Table 1 below:
[0086] Table 1. Simulation results of airflow distribution and leak gas detection time in each unit pipe section.
[0087]
[0088] Based on the aforementioned measured detection time T s =12.6min. Comparing this with the simulated calculation result T, we can find that the simulated total time T for the 20th segment is 13min, which is consistent with the measured detection time T. s The location is closest to the actual leak location, which is near the 20th unit pipe section. This location is basically consistent with the actual leak location, proving that the present invention can achieve the expected technical effect.
