[0002] The process of sinking the caisson will generate a lot of mud, which needs to be processed in a short time and the water in the mud needs to be separated and recycled. Conventional methods generally use sedimentation tanks to fully settle the mud and then obtain the upper clean water for recycling, or use mud treatment equipment to separate the water and soil in the mud.

[0003] However, during the sinking of the caisson, a huge amount of mud will be processed in a short period of time. The use of a sedimentation tank requires a large site area, which will lead to site limitations. The mud discharge pressure is unstable during the sinking of the caisson, and it is not suitable to use equipment for direct treatment. At the same time, the mud displacement per unit time during the sinking of the caisson varies greatly, and the rated treatment efficiency of the mud treatment equipment is limited. If the equipment is invested according to the maximum mud displacement, it will lead to a large number of equipment, high investment costs and equipment idle rate. In addition, there is a certain failure rate when using equipment for treatment, which is easy to affect the normal sinking of the caisson. Summary of the invention

[0041] See also Figure 1 A caisson sinking mud treatment system shown in a preferred embodiment of the present application includes a transfer diversion tank 1, a mud treatment device 2, a sedimentation tank 3 and a clear water tank 4. The transfer diversion tank 1 is connected to the caisson, and is used to transfer and divert the mud generated during the caisson sinking construction. The mud treatment device 2 is connected to the transfer diversion tank 1, and is used to concentrate and filter the diverted mud.

The clear water tank 4 is connected to the mud treatment device 2 and the sedimentation tank 3, respectively, and is used to store the clear water generated by the mud treatment device 2 and the muddy water generated by the sedimentation tank 3, and to perform sedimentation treatment on the muddy water for caisson water replenishment and high-pressure water injection. The caisson sinking mud treatment system is configured as a mud treatment method with the mud treatment device 2 as the main part and the sedimentation tank 3 as the auxiliary part to save site and investment costs and improve the continuous mud treatment capacity.

[0042] According to the scheme of the embodiment of the present invention, the mud treatment is mainly carried out with the mud treatment equipment 2 and the sedimentation tank 3 as an auxiliary. The sedimentation tank 3 of appropriate size is matched with the mud treatment equipment 2 to jointly treat the mud, which can not only save the site and investment cost, solve the problem of limited site, but also improve the continuous mud treatment capacity, ensure that the mud can be treated in time when the mud treatment equipment 2 fails, ensure that the caisson soil can be continuously constructed, and at the same time, the mud peak can be cut for the large difference in mud discharge per unit time during the sinking of the caisson, and the mud suction characteristics of the caisson can be matched, thereby reducing the configuration of the mud treatment equipment 2 to save investment costs and reduce the equipment idle rate.

On the one hand, it can avoid the problem that the mud treatment equipment 2 cannot directly and effectively treat it due to the unstable mud discharge pressure, and on the other hand, it can coordinate the mud treatment equipment 2 and the sedimentation tank 3 to perform joint operations.

Add an appropriate amount of flocculants to the concentration tank 21 and perform gel breaking and flocculation through a pipeline mixer, so that the mud and water in the mud are separated, the mud sinks and the clean water rises, and the clean water is discharged to the clear water tank 4 through a pipeline. The flocculated mud in the concentration tank 21 is pumped into the filter chamber of the filter press 22, and the excess water is discharged from the outlet pipe of the filter chamber through the pressure of the pump and discharged into the clean water tank 4 through the pipeline. The moisture content of the solidified soil (i.e. dry soil residue) in the filter chamber reaches about 20-30%, which can be directly stacked, transported and landfilled to ensure zero discharge of ground mud.
