Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of environmental geotechnical engineering technology or the field of groundwater pollution prevention and control technology in mining areas, and in particular to a device and method for testing the blocking performance of a grouting joint throughout its entire life cycle. Background Art

[0002] Manganese ore resources are an important strategic mineral in my country, widely used in fields such as steelmaking, chemical manufacturing, and electronics. However, long-term, large-scale manganese mining activities have significantly altered the hydrogeological conditions in mining areas, leading to highly developed rock joint and fissure systems and a more complex hydrodynamic system. When rainfall infiltrates the mining area, it interacts with manganese-bearing rock and soil, undergoing chemical leaching and producing highly concentrated manganese-contaminated water. This manganese-contaminated water migrates along joints and fissures and diffuses into surrounding aquifers through groundwater runoff, significantly increasing the concentration of manganese ions in the groundwater. The large volume of water gushing out and the complex runoff pathways further exacerbate the scope and intensity of the pollution, posing a serious threat to the safety of regional groundwater resources and the sustainability of the ecological environment. This environmental risk is particularly prominent in areas with concentrated manganese ore resources, necessitating the development of effective and scientific pollution prevention and control strategies to mitigate its adverse effects.

[0003] Among various pollution prevention and control technologies, cement-based composite grouting and plugging technology is widely considered a cost-effective method for managing joint and fissure contamination in manganese mining areas due to its excellent low permeability and high adsorption capacity for heavy metal ions. By plugging fissures through grouting, this technology can effectively prevent the migration and diffusion of manganese ions while reducing the permeability of mine water, thereby protecting groundwater resources. However, over the long term, the grouting material's barrier properties against heavy metal pollutants and its ability to block water can gradually weaken due to multiple factors such as material degradation, changes in the chemical environment, groundwater level fluctuations, and dry-wet cycles. This performance degradation not only increases the risk of groundwater contamination but also limits the optimization and large-scale application of this technology. Currently, research on the mechanisms of grouting performance changes throughout its life cycle and systematic evaluation methods is still in its early stages, and in-depth exploration at both the theoretical and practical levels is urgently needed to promote the improvement and promotion of this technology.

[0004] Permeability and membrane effect are key indicators for measuring a material's ability to block ion migration. They can intuitively reflect the blocking performance of grouting junctions and predict their service life. However, due to the special curing environment and conditions required during the formation of grouting junctions, traditional sample preparation methods are difficult to meet the relevant testing requirements. In addition, although the commonly used clay plate method can be used for unsaturated suction control research, it has problems such as complex operation, limited suction control range, and high cost, which further restrict the systematic research on the blocking performance of unsaturated grouting junctions. Overall, the following problems still exist:

[0005] (1) Currently, there are few studies on the evaluation of the solid blocking performance of grouting junctions, and few reports on the research on the solid membrane effect of grouting junctions. There is no device for testing the solid membrane effect of grouting junctions.

[0006] (2) There is no instrument that integrates both permeability and membrane effect testing functions;

[0007] (3) Some researchers have developed a saturated clay film effect test device, but there is no mature unsaturated film effect test device;

[0008] (4) Research in related fields uses clay plates to control suction to achieve an unsaturated state, which has the disadvantages of complicated experimental operations, long time consumption, limited suction control range, and high equipment costs;

[0009] (5) The curing of the structure needs to be carried out in a specific environment. The existing membrane effect test equipment is generally large in size and is not convenient for curing in a curing box.

[0010] (6) The state (strength, volume, blocking performance, etc.) of the structure will change during the maintenance process and service process, and there is a lack of equipment that can test the membrane effect of the structure throughout its life cycle.

[0011] In summary, the development of a simple, efficient, and economical device and method for testing the blocking performance of grouting joints has significant scientific and engineering significance. This research not only provides a scientific basis for evaluating the blocking performance and water shutoff capacity of grouting joints throughout their life cycle, but also offers theoretical support and practical guidance for environmental pollution prevention and control and resource conservation in manganese mining areas and beyond, thereby promoting innovation and sustainable development in mining ecological and environmental governance technologies.

[0050] In the embodiment of the present application, the device for testing the blocking performance of the grouting junction entity throughout its life cycle adopts a gas phase method to control suction. Compared with the existing device that uses clay plates to control suction, the device has a fast suction loading speed and a wide suction control range, thereby realizing the unsaturated membrane effect test of the grouting junction entity within a wide suction range. In addition, the instrument and equipment are simple in composition, easy to operate, low in cost, small in space occupation, and have great value for wide promotion and application.

[0051] In addition, the use of the grouting junction entity full life cycle resistance performance test device for testing is generally simple and easy.

At the same time, it has low maintenance costs and is applicable in actual projects. It has important engineering significance and theoretical research value.

[0052] Among them, the inner wall of the annular permeable stone 14 is flush with the inner wall of the rigid cylinder 10; the height of the annular permeable stone 14 is not less than one-third of the height of the rigid cylinder 10 and does not exceed one-half of the height of the rigid cylinder 10. During the test, the annular permeable stone 14 does not contact the base 11 and the permeable stone 15 on the upper sealing body 13.

[0053] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the gas phase suction control component includes a gas circulation pump 1, a first liquid storage tank 2, a second liquid storage tank 3 and a valve. The outer wall of the rigid cylinder 10 is relatively provided with an air inlet and an air outlet. The air inlet and the air outlet are both connected to the annular permeable stone 14. The first liquid storage tank 2 is filled with a saturated salt solution. The air outlet end of the gas circulation pump 1 is introduced into the saturated salt solution.

The air outlet is connected to the air inlet end of the gas circulation pump 1 through a pipeline 4, and the valve is set on the pipeline 4.

[0054] It can be understood that by filling different saturated salt solutions in the first liquid storage tank 2, different suction controls can be achieved, such as the suction corresponding to the saturated K2SO4 solution is 4.2MPa, and the suction corresponding to the saturated ZnSO4 solution is 12.6MPa.

The two pressure difference sensors 20 are respectively arranged in the permeable stone 15 on the base 11 and the permeable stone 15 on the upper sealing body 13 .

[0057] According to another aspect of the present application, an embodiment of the present application further provides a method for testing the blocking performance of a grouting junction entity throughout its life cycle. Based on the device for testing the blocking performance of a grouting junction entity throughout its life cycle provided by the present application, the method for testing the blocking performance of a grouting junction entity throughout its life cycle includes the following steps:

[0058] S1. Sample preparation: Prepare paste grouting material according to design requirements. Specifically, mix the various components of the composite grouting material and distilled water in a certain proportion and stir evenly into a paste;

[0059] S2. Loading: Loading sample 32 in the integrated test chamber for curing and testing;

[0060] S3. Simulating actual curing conditions: Adjust the temperature control assembly according to the actual site temperature environment to simulate the site temperature conditions; according to the actual site water chemistry, inject a certain concentration of salt solution into the supply bottle 22 of the two solution circulation assemblies to simulate the site groundwater conditions. According to the actual site groundwater flow rate, set the flow rate of the inlet peristaltic pump 23 and the outlet peristaltic pump 25 of the two solution circulation assemblies to simulate the site groundwater flow rate; finally, according to the actual site unsaturated state, prepare the saturated solution in the gas phase suction control assembly to simulate unsaturated curing conditions;

[0061] S4. Sample curing: Under the curing conditions set in step S3, curing for a certain number of days to complete the sample curing;

[0062] S5. Cleaning the solid: After the curing is completed, close the two sets of solution circulation components and the gas phase suction control component, replace the solution in the supply bottle 22 of the two sets of solution circulation components with distilled water, adjust the flow rate of the inlet peristaltic pump 23 and the outlet peristaltic pump 25, and continuously measure the conductivity of the liquid in the collection bottle 24. When the conductivity is less than half of the conductivity of the salt solution used in the supply bottle 22 of the solution circulation component in step S3, it is considered that the solid cleaning is complete;

[0063] S6. Conduct penetration testing using the penetration component;

[0064] S7. Conduct membrane effect tests under saturated / unsaturated conditions;

[0065] S8. Take out the knot and divide it into three parts. Use the filter paper method to test the suction of each part of the knot. Take the average value and record it as the actual suction s. s ;

[0066] S9. Change the test conditions and repeat the above test steps to carry out the grouting joint solid blocking performance test under different working conditions;

[0067] S10. Draw the relationship curve between curing time, actual suction, permeability coefficient and membrane efficiency coefficient, such as Figure 3 As shown, the blocking performance of grouting entities is comprehensively evaluated and predicted.

[0068] In the embodiment of the present application, the method for testing the blocking performance of the grouting junction entity throughout its life cycle targets the phase change characteristics (from paste to solid phase) that occur during the curing process of the grouting material, so that the test curing, saturated / unsaturated permeability test, and membrane effect test can all be completed in the same test chamber, which is simple to operate, improves the test efficiency, and saves costs; the method is generally simple and easy to implement, and can simultaneously control the temperature, suction, groundwater flow rate, and water chemical environment, thereby realizing the curing of the grouting junction entity and the blocking performance test throughout its life cycle under simulated actual working conditions, while having low maintenance costs and being applicable in actual projects, and having important engineering significance and theoretical research value.

[0069] Compared with traditional evaluation methods, this method comprehensively considers the permeability, suction and membrane effect of the grouting structure, and also introduces the time variable. By setting different curing times and controlling different curing environments, the evaluation of the blocking performance (suction, membrane effect and permeability) of the grouting structure throughout its life cycle under various working conditions is achieved.

[0070] In one embodiment, combining Figure 2 As shown, in step S2, loading the sample 32 into the integrated curing and testing chamber specifically includes:

[0071] The upper sealing body 13 is installed in the rigid cylinder 10, and the rigid cylinder 10 and the upper sealing body 13 are inverted together, and an inverted "T"-shaped top cover 31 with a specific height is inserted from the bottom of the rigid cylinder 10 to keep the upper sealing body 13 stationary in the rigid cylinder 10; filter paper 30 of corresponding size is placed on the surface of the permeable stone 15 on the upper sealing body 13, and then the paste grouting material prepared in advance is filled into the rigid cylinder 10 in multiple layers, and is continuously tamped with tools (such as glass rods) to expel bubbles; then, the upper surface of the paste grouting material is scraped flat with a scraper, and the filter paper 30 is placed on it. Next, the base 11 is turned upside down on the rigid cylinder 10 and fastened by the connecting assembly 12 (such as a bolt assembly), and finally the entire integrated curing and testing test chamber is quickly turned back to the right side.

[0072] By adopting the above-mentioned "inverted filling method", the paste grouting material can be filled more densely, ensuring the reliability of subsequent maintenance and testing.

[0073] Example 1:

[0074] Mix the grouting paste materials in a certain proportion and stir them evenly. Figure 2 Fill the sample into the integrated test chamber of curing and testing using the filling method shown, and ensure that the filling is dense.

[0075] After filling, follow Figure 1 As shown, connect all components of the device. Fill the supply bottles 22 of both solution circulation assemblies with distilled water. Start the inlet and outlet peristaltic pumps 23 and 25 and adjust the flow rate to 25.2 μL / min. Adjust the temperature control assembly to 20°C. Allow the device to stand under these conditions for 7 days.

[0076] After the curing is completed, the peristaltic pumps in the two sets of solution circulation components are closed, the valve on the water inlet pipe of the permeation component is opened, and the liquid in the liquid storage container 8 flows into the water inlet on the base 11 through the water inlet pipe, and the temperature is kept constant at 20°C. The permeation test is carried out, and the water output at different times is recorded using the liquid collecting container 9. The permeability coefficient is calculated using the following formula, which is the permeability of the grouting structure under the conditions of simulating static water and normal temperature curing.

[0077]

[0078] Where ΔQ is the difference in the flow rate of the seepage fluid between the top and bottom ends of the structure within Δt, A is the cross-sectional area of ​​the structure perpendicular to the direction of water flow, and I is the hydraulic gradient.

[0079] Example 2:

[0080] Mix the grouting paste materials in a certain proportion and stir them evenly. Figure 2 Fill the sample into the integrated test chamber of curing and testing using the filling method shown, and ensure that the filling is dense.

[0081] After filling, follow Figure 1 As shown, connect all components of the device. Fill the supply bottles 22 of both solution circulation assemblies with distilled water. Start the inlet and outlet peristaltic pumps 23 and 25 and adjust the flow rate to 25.2 μL / min. Adjust the temperature control assembly to 20°C. Allow the device to stand under these conditions for 7 days.

[0082] After curing was completed, the distilled water in the supply bottle 22 of the solution circulation assembly connected to the permeable stone 15 on the upper sealing body 13 was replaced with a 10mM manganese sulfate solution. The pressure differential monitoring assembly was turned on, and the inlet and outlet peristaltic pumps 23 and 25 were started at a flow rate of 25.2μL / min. The solution was circulated at the top and bottom ends of the structure. During the test, exudate from the top and bottom ends was collected, and the conductivity and concentration of the exudate were measured. Once the pressure differential monitoring assembly reading stabilized, the test was considered to have reached the stable stage under the action of the 10mM manganese sulfate solution.

[0083] Afterwards, the manganese sulfate solution was replaced with a higher concentration (20mM, 30mM, 40mM, and 50mM) until the pressure differential stabilized at the final concentration. The test concluded, completing the determination of the solid membrane efficiency coefficient of the grouting junction under normal curing and saturation conditions. The membrane effect coefficient was calculated using the following formula. This simulates the solid membrane effect of the grouting junction under static water and room temperature curing conditions.

[0084]

[0085] Where Δπ is the theoretical chemical osmotic pressure difference, which can be calculated by the Van't Hoff formula Δπ = vRTΔC, ΔP is the actual chemical osmotic pressure difference between the top and bottom ends of the junction, v is the total number of ions contained in the chemical formula of the electrolyte, and R is the universal gas constant (8.314 J·mol -1 ·K -1 ), T is the absolute temperature, and ΔC is the difference in chemical concentration between the top and bottom of the structure.
