Abstract

The application discloses a lignite sample and a manufacturing method and device thereof. The manufacturing device and method of the lignite sample provide a long-term stable sealing visible environment with surrounding pressure for the lignite sample through winding a transparent heat insulation adhesive tape on the lignite sample and embedding the lignite sample into the inside of the epoxy resin after solidification, which can provide a certain surrounding pressure condition. Meanwhile, the hard epoxy resin shell solves the problem of difficult transportation of the loose and brittle lignite sample on a bumpy road, and the transparent heat insulation adhesive tape and the epoxy resin provide good observation conditions for subsequent core description without damaging the sealing environment. The solidified epoxy resin with surrounding pressure tightly wraps the lignite sample, can reduce the vibration influence during drilling of the small sample, and greatly improves the success rate of drilling of the small sample of the loose and brittle lignite sample. Finally, the solidified epoxy resin shell is removed in a dissolution manner, which is not only convenient, but also can avoid the influence on the physical and chemical properties of the lignite sample.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a lignite sample and its preparation method and apparatus. Background Technology

[0002] The recoverable coalbed methane resources contained in lignite amount to 4.96 × 10⁻⁶. 12 m 3 Due to the characteristics of lignite, such as low rank, low compaction, stress sensitivity, and susceptibility to water loss and oxidation, coal and rock samples taken to the surface from drilling typically undergo expansion, oxidation, and cracking within a short period. This results in significant discrepancies between the lignite's mechanical properties, pore-fracture characteristics, and adsorption / desorption patterns—key parameters for coalbed methane development—and the samples themselves, leading to severe distortions and hindering scientific guidance for production practices. To avoid rapid distortion of lignite after it leaves the underground environment, preliminary processing is necessary during on-site sampling to prepare specific coal samples. This ensures long-term accuracy, facilitates transportation, and allows for convenient secondary processing and sample preparation.

[0003] Currently, there are three main methods for sample preparation: 1. wrapping with plastic wrap; 2. sealing with wax; and 3. filling with gas canisters. However, all three methods have significant shortcomings. First, none of the three methods can provide effective confining pressure to limit the expansion and cracking of the coal sample after depressurization. Second, the sealing performance of method one is limited, only delaying dehydration and oxidation; while method two can provide good sealing conditions, it is impossible to conduct selective observation during subsequent sample preparation; and method three is not suitable for large-scale use, and the coal sample must be removed in advance during subsequent sample preparation, leading to a certain degree of distortion in the processing. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To at least partially solve any of the above-mentioned technical problems, embodiments of the present invention provide an apparatus and method for preparing high-fidelity lignite samples. While ensuring the high fidelity of the lignite samples, the method is not only convenient for transportation, but also facilitates secondary processing and sample preparation, reducing distortion during the processing.

[0005] As one aspect of the present invention, a method for preparing a lignite sample is provided, the method comprising the following steps:

[0008] The target lignite rock sample is evenly wrapped with transparent heat-insulating tape. Several metal frames are added according to the length of the wrapped rock sample to obtain the pretreated target lignite rock sample.

[0009] S2, Fixing of Lignite Rock Sample Encapsulation Casing

[0010] Apply a release agent to the inner surface of the lignite sample encapsulation tube, and push the pretreated target lignite sample obtained in S1 into the horizontally placed lignite sample encapsulation tube.

[0022] In one or more optional embodiments, in S1, the target lignite rock sample is uniformly wrapped with transparent heat-insulating tape, and several metal frames are added according to the length of the wrapped rock sample to obtain the pretreated target lignite rock sample, including:

[0023] The target lignite sample, after surface water stains have been wiped off, is evenly wrapped with the transparent heat-insulating tape to ensure that the target lignite sample is completely enclosed without any exposed areas. Then, according to the length of the target lignite sample, a certain number of radially centered metal frames are added to ensure that the target lignite sample does not tilt inside the lignite sample encapsulation tube.

[0024] In one or more optional embodiments, in S2, the step of applying a release agent to the inner surface of the lignite sample encapsulation cylinder and pushing the pretreated target lignite sample obtained in S1 into the horizontally placed lignite sample encapsulation cylinder includes:

[0025] A release agent is applied to the inner surface of the lignite sample encapsulation cylinder. The pretreated target lignite sample obtained in S1 is then pushed into the horizontally placed lignite sample encapsulation cylinder, ensuring that the inner diameter of the encapsulation cylinder is larger than the outer diameter of the pretreated target lignite sample.

[0026] In one or more optional embodiments, in step S3, the step of pouring the mixture of liquid epoxy resin and curing agent into the lignite sample encapsulation cylinder and immersing the lignite sample to complete the encapsulation includes:

[0028] In one or more optional embodiments, in S4, the temperature and pressure within the stable sealed chamber are within a set range, including:

[0029] An air compressor, an air heater, a pressure relief valve, and a pressure gauge are used to stabilize the air pressure in the sealed chamber at a target air pressure, which is close to the in-situ confining pressure beneath the lignite sample.

[0030] In one or more optional embodiments, the method further includes: obtaining lignite samples;

[0031] The acquisition of the lignite sample refers to: immersing the lignite sample in a solvent, and after the cured epoxy resin has dissolved, the lignite sample can be completely removed from the cured epoxy resin.

[0032] As another aspect of the present invention, there is a lignite sample prepared by the above-described preparation method.

[0033] As another aspect of the present invention, an apparatus for preparing the above-mentioned lignite sample is provided, the apparatus comprising: an upper sealing shell, a lower sealing shell, a lignite rock sample encapsulation cylinder, a pressure gauge, a pressure relief valve, an air compressor, and an air heater;

[0034] The upper sealing shell and the lower sealing shell form a sealed chamber, which is used to hold the lignite rock sample encapsulation tube.

[0035] The lignite rock sample encapsulation cylinder is connected to the lower sealing shell by a thread and is used to hold the lignite sample;

[0041] In one or more alternative embodiments, it further includes: a metal frame, the metal frame being radially disposed within the lignite rock sample encapsulation cylinder, for clamping and centering the lignite sample.

[0042] The apparatus and method for preparing lignite samples proposed in this invention provide a long-term, stable, sealed, and visible environment for lignite samples by wrapping transparent heat-insulating tape around the sample and embedding it inside a cured epoxy resin that provides defined confining pressure conditions. Simultaneously, the rigid epoxy resin shell solves the problem of difficult transportation of brittle lignite samples on bumpy mountain roads. The transparent heat-insulating tape and epoxy resin provide good observation conditions for subsequent core characterization without disrupting the sealed environment. The cured epoxy resin tightly encapsulates the lignite sample, reducing the impact of vibration during drilling small samples and significantly improving the success rate of drilling small brittle lignite samples. Finally, the cured epoxy resin shell is removed by melting, which is not only convenient but also avoids affecting the physicochemical properties of the lignite sample.

[0055] Example 1

[0056] See attached document Figure 1 , 2 This embodiment provides an apparatus for preparing lignite samples, including: an upper sealing shell 1, a lower sealing shell 2, a pressure limiting valve 3, a pressure gauge 4, an air compressor 5, an air heater 6, and a lignite rock sample encapsulation cylinder 7;

[0063] In this embodiment of the invention, a support frame 9 is also included, which is disposed at the bottom of the lignite rock sample encapsulation cylinder 7 and is used to support the pretreated target lignite rock sample 11.

[0064] In this embodiment of the invention, a metal frame 8 is also included. The metal frame 8 is radially disposed inside the lignite rock sample encapsulation cylinder 7 and is used to clamp and center the pretreated target lignite rock sample 11.

[0065] To enable those skilled in the art to understand the manufacturing apparatus of the present invention more clearly and intuitively, a further description is provided. It should be noted that the connection method, connection order, etc. of the apparatus in this description should not be construed as limitations of the present invention.

[0066] In one specific embodiment, the lignite sample preparation device of the present invention comprises a sealed chamber consisting of an upper sealed shell 1 and a lower sealed shell 2. A pressure gauge 4 is installed on the upper sealed shell 1. The pressure gauge 4 can be installed on the top of the upper sealed shell 1 or on the side of the upper sealed shell 1, depending on actual needs. The pressure gauge 4 is used to observe the pressure changes in the sealed chamber.

[0067] The lower sealing housing 2 is externally connected to a pressure relief valve 3, an air compressor 5, and an air heater 6. The installation positions of the pressure relief valve 3, the air compressor 5, and the air heater 6 can be adjusted according to the actual situation. The pressure relief valve 3 is used to regulate the pressure inside the sealing chamber in real time. The air compressor 5 provides the target air pressure inside the sealing chamber.

A metal frame 8 is placed inside the lignite sample encapsulation cylinder 7, and a support frame 9 is placed at the bottom. The metal frame 8 and the support frame 9 are used to center the pretreated target lignite sample 11. In order to further avoid direct contact between the pretreated target lignite sample 11 and the inner wall of the lignite sample encapsulation cylinder 7, which would affect the local encapsulation quality, the inner diameter of the lignite sample encapsulation cylinder 7 is kept greater than the outer diameter of the pretreated target lignite sample 11.

[0070] Example 2

[0071] Based on the same inventive concept, this embodiment provides a method for preparing a lignite sample, including the following steps:

[0072] S1. Selection and pretreatment of rock samples

[0077] After the support frame 9 is placed into the threaded end at the bottom of the lignite sample encapsulation cylinder 7, the lignite sample encapsulation cylinder 7 is erected and fixedly connected to the lower sealing shell 2.

[0078] S3, Rock Sample Encapsulation

[0079] The mixture of liquid epoxy resin and curing agent is poured into the lignite sample encapsulation cylinder 7 and the pretreated target lignite sample 11 is immersed to complete the encapsulation.

[0080] S4, Assembly device

[0081] The upper sealing housing 1 and the lower sealing housing 2 are assembled to form a sealing chamber;

After the epoxy resin has completely cured, the upper sealed shell 1 is opened, the lignite rock sample encapsulation cylinder 7 is taken out, and after ventilation and curing, the lignite sample 11 is obtained.

[0083] In this embodiment of the invention, if multiple target lignite rock samples need to be processed, each target lignite rock sample only needs to repeat S1 to S2, and the total processing time does not exceed 10 minutes. After all the lignite rock sample encapsulation cylinders 7 are fixedly connected to the lower sealing shell 2, S3 is repeated uniformly, and finally S4 is performed to obtain multiple lignite samples.

[0090] The target lignite sample, after surface water stains have been wiped off, is evenly wrapped with the transparent heat-insulating tape to ensure that the target lignite sample is completely enclosed without any exposed areas. Then, according to the length of the target lignite sample, a certain number of radially centered metal frames 8 are added to ensure that the pretreated target lignite sample 11 does not tilt inside the lignite sample encapsulation cylinder 7.

[0096] After thoroughly mixing the liquid epoxy resin and the curing agent according to the set ratio, pour the mixture into the lignite sample encapsulation cylinder 7, keeping the liquid level higher than the length of the pretreated target lignite sample 11.

[0097] In one specific embodiment, the liquid epoxy resin and the curing agent are thoroughly stirred in a 2:1 ratio and then poured into the lignite sample encapsulation cylinder 7, maintaining the liquid level 1 cm above the top of the pretreated target lignite sample 11.

[0098] In this embodiment of the invention, in S4, the temperature and air pressure inside the stable sealed chamber are within a set range, including: using an air compressor 5, a pressure relief valve 3 and a pressure gauge 4 to stabilize the air pressure inside the sealed chamber at a target air pressure, the target air pressure being close to the in-situ confining pressure under the lignite sample, and using an air heater 6 to control the temperature inside the sealed chamber to the optimal temperature for epoxy resin curing.

[0099] In one specific embodiment, the air pressure in the sealed chamber is regulated to the in-situ confining pressure of the lignite sample using an air compressor 5, a pressure relief valve 3, and a pressure gauge 4; the temperature in the sealed chamber is controlled at around 35°C using an air heater 6, so that the internal temperature of the liquid epoxy resin and curing agent mixture does not rise by more than 200°C during the curing process; after stabilizing the temperature and air pressure in the sealed chamber for 15-30 minutes, the epoxy resin is initially cured.

[0100] In this embodiment of the invention, the method further includes: obtaining lignite samples; obtaining lignite samples means: immersing the lignite samples in a solvent, and after the cured epoxy resin has dissolved, the pretreated target lignite rock sample 11 can be completely removed from the cured epoxy resin.
