Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of resource recycling and utilization, and relates to an automated device and method for recycling underground infiltration water. Background Art
[0002] With the booming development of industrial production, the demand for water resources has increased sharply, and the problem of water resource shortage has become increasingly severe. Underground infiltration water, as a potential water resource, its recycling and utilization is of great significance for alleviating water resource shortage and reducing production costs. However, there are still many defects in the current technologies for recycling underground infiltration water, which limit its practical application effect.
[0003] Firstly, the water quality of underground infiltration water is often complex and variable, containing various impurities such as suspended solids, organic matter, and heavy metals. If these impurities are directly reused without effective treatment, they may corrode production equipment, affect product quality, and even cause safety accidents. Traditional technologies for recycling infiltration water often lack the ability to monitor and treat water quality in real time, and it is difficult to ensure the stable quality of recycled water.
[0004] Secondly, the flow rate and pressure of underground infiltration water are usually unstable, affected by various factors such as geological conditions, rainfall, and seasonal changes. This instability brings great difficulties to the collection and transportation of infiltration water. Traditional collection systems often use simple drainage pipes and valve controls, and cannot achieve precise regulation of the infiltration water flow rate and stable transportation. This not only affects the recycling and utilization efficiency of infiltration water, but also may lead to waste of resources.
[0005] In addition, the recycling and utilization of underground infiltration water also need to consider the issues of energy conservation and consumption reduction. Traditional recycling and utilization technologies often consume high energy. For example, high-power water pumps are used for transportation, or a large amount of electric energy is consumed during the treatment process. This not only increases production costs, but also does not conform to the current development concept of green and low-carbon.
[0006] In terms of automatic control, traditional technologies for recycling infiltration water also have obvious deficiencies. Many systems lack intelligent control components and cannot achieve real-time monitoring and remote control of various links such as infiltration water collection, treatment, and transportation. This not only increases the difficulty and cost of manual operation, but also is difficult to ensure the stability and reliability of the system.
[0007] In response to the above problems, some improved technologies for recycling infiltration water have been proposed currently, but these technologies still have limitations. For example, although some technologies have increased the monitoring and treatment links of water quality, the equipment is complex and the cost is high, which is not conducive to popularization and application; although some technologies have achieved automatic control, they still need to be improved in terms of flow rate regulation, energy conservation and consumption reduction.
[0008] In summary, the existing underground seepage water recycling technologies have obvious defects in aspects such as water quality treatment, flow regulation, energy conservation and consumption reduction, and automatic control. These defects limit the efficiency and economy of seepage water recycling and also restrict its wide application in industrial production. Therefore, developing an efficient, stable, energy-saving, and intelligent automatic device and method for underground seepage water recycling is of great significance for improving water resource utilization efficiency, reducing production costs, and promoting industrial sustainable development. Summary of the Invention
[0009] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an automatic device and method for underground seepage water recycling to solve the existing problems.
[0010] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solution: An automatic device for underground seepage water recycling includes a seepage water collection chamber, an anti-blocking filter, an explosion-proof submersible pump, and a cooling water tank connected in sequence. The seepage water collection chamber is arranged in the sump of the underground building structure and is used to receive and temporarily store seepage water. The cooling water tank serves as the terminal water storage facility and receives the treated seepage water through a drainage pipeline. The anti-blocking filter is connected downstream of the seepage water collection chamber through a flange and includes a detachable filter screen and a backwashing interface. An electric control valve is arranged between the anti-blocking filter and the explosion-proof submersible pump to regulate the seepage water flow. There are two explosion-proof submersible pumps, which are connected to an anti-eddy device through a pipeline, are arranged in parallel, and are equipped with independent control circuits. Among them, the explosion-proof submersible pump is also connected to a PLC controller.
[0011] Optionally, a liquid level sensor is arranged on the seepage water collection chamber. The liquid level sensor adopts a double-float structure and is provided with two control points, high and low. A water quality on-line monitor is also arranged at the water outlet of the seepage water collection chamber to detect the pH value, conductivity, and suspended solid concentration in real time. The liquid level sensor and the water quality on-line monitor are signal-connected to the PLC controller.
[0012] Optionally, an anti-eddy device is arranged at the inlet of the explosion-proof submersible pump, and the anti-eddy device adopts an inverted cone structure.
[0013] Optionally, a check valve is arranged at the outlet end of the explosion-proof submersible pump to prevent water flow back.
[0014] Optionally, the backwashing interface of the anti-blocking filter is connected to a high-pressure water source, the backwashing direction is opposite to the seepage water flow direction, and the backwashing pressure range is 2-4 bar.
[0015] An automatic method for underground seepage water recycling, which applies the above-mentioned automatic device for underground seepage water recycling, includes the following steps:
[0016] S1. The infiltrated water enters the infiltrated water collection chamber by gravity. When the liquid level sensor detects a high water level, a system start signal is triggered.
[0017] S2. The on-line water quality monitor analyzes the infiltrated water in real time. If the water quality parameters exceed the preset range, the electric control valve is closed and an alarm is started.
[0018] S3. The infiltrated water meeting the water quality requirements passes through an anti-clogging filter and an anti-eddy device in sequence, and is pressurized and conveyed by an explosion-proof submersible pump.
[0019] S4. The pressurized water flows through a check valve and then enters the cooling water pool. During the conveying process, the PLC controller dynamically adjusts the operating frequency of the explosion-proof submersible pump according to the liquid level data.
[0020] S5. When the pressure difference of the anti-clogging filter exceeds 0.1 MPa, the backwashing program is automatically started, and the washing wastewater is discharged to the emergency treatment pool.
[0021] Optionally, in step S3, two explosion-proof submersible pumps operate in a main-backup alternating mode, with a switching period of 24 hours. And a slow-closing check valve is used to prevent the water hammer effect during the switching.
[0022] Optionally, the backwashing program in step S5 includes: closing the main conveying pipeline, opening the standby pipeline, and backwashing the anti-clogging filter with 3 bar pressure water for 90 - 120 seconds.
[0023] Optionally, the PLC controller controls the opening degree of the electric control valve through a fuzzy PID algorithm, so that the flow fluctuation range of the explosion-proof submersible pump does not exceed ±5%.
[0024] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0025] 1) The present invention effectively collects the infiltrated water in the underground building structure through the infiltrated water collection chamber, avoiding the waste of water resources. At the same time, through the combined use of an anti-clogging filter and an explosion-proof submersible pump, the effective treatment and stable conveying of the infiltrated water are realized, ensuring the quality of the recycled water. This automated recycling method greatly improves the utilization efficiency of water resources and helps to alleviate the problem of water resource shortage.
[0026] 2) The present invention integrates intelligent control elements such as a PLC controller, an electric control valve, a liquid level sensor, and an on-line water quality monitor, realizing the real-time monitoring and remote control of each link such as the collection, treatment, and conveying of the infiltrated water. This intelligent control method not only improves the stability and reliability of the system, but also reduces the difficulty and cost of manual operation. At the same time, through the application of advanced control strategies such as the fuzzy PID algorithm, the automation degree and control accuracy of the system are further improved.
[0027] 3) The recycling and utilization of underground seepage water in the present invention is a green and low-carbon environmental protection behavior, which helps to reduce the pollution and damage of industrial production to the environment. Through the application of this device, enterprises can achieve the efficient recycling and utilization of underground seepage water, reduce the consumption of fresh water and the discharge of wastewater, and thus achieve the goal of sustainable development. This not only helps to enhance the social image and brand value of enterprises, but also helps to promote the green transformation and sustainable development of the whole society.
[0028] In summary, an automated device and method for recycling and utilizing underground seepage water have significant beneficial effects in improving water resource utilization efficiency, reducing production costs, ensuring production safety, achieving intelligent control, and promoting sustainable development. This innovative recycling method will bring more economic and environmental benefits to industrial production.

[0037] Please refer to Figure 1 , which is an automated device for the recycling and utilization of underground seepage water. Specifically:
[0038] I. Device Installation and Configuration
[0039] 1. Installation of the seepage water collection chamber 1
[0040] The seepage water collection chamber 1 is installed in the sump of the underground building structure. Its design should take into account the size and shape of the sump to ensure that it can fully receive and temporarily store the seepage water. The material of the collection chamber is selected as corrosion-resistant and high-strength materials, such as stainless steel or fiberglass, to extend its service life.
[0041] On the top of the seepage water collection chamber 1, a liquid level sensor 2 is installed. This sensor adopts a double-float structure and is set with two control points, high and low. When the water level reaches the high control point, the sensor will send a signal to the PLC controller to trigger the system start signal; when the water level drops to the low control point, the operation of the system will stop.
[0042] A water quality on-line monitor 3 is also installed at the water outlet of the seepage water collection chamber 1 to detect the pH value, conductivity and suspended solid concentration of the seepage water in real time. These water quality parameters are crucial for judging whether the seepage water is suitable for recycling and utilization.
[0043] 2. Installation and Configuration of the Anti-Clogging Filter 4
[0044] The anti-clogging filter 4 is connected downstream of the permeate water collection chamber 1 by a flange. It is internally equipped with a detachable filter screen, and the aperture of the filter screen is selected according to actual requirements to ensure that suspended solids, organic matter and other impurities in the permeate water can be effectively filtered out.
[0045] An anti-flushing interface is provided on the housing of the anti-clogging filter 4, and this interface is connected to a high-pressure water source. When the pressure difference of the filter exceeds 0.1 MPa, the PLC controller will automatically start the anti-flushing program to remove the blockage on the filter screen by reverse flushing to keep the filter unclogged. The anti-flushing pressure is controlled between 2 - 4 bar, and the flushing time lasts for 90 - 120 seconds.
[0046] 3. Installation of the explosion-proof submersible pump 7 and the electric control valve 5
[0047] Downstream of the anti-clogging filter 4, an electric control valve 5 is installed to regulate the flow of permeate water. This control valve is signal-connected to the PLC controller and automatically adjusts the opening according to system requirements and real-time water quality and water volume conditions to ensure that the explosion-proof submersible pump 7 can work stably and efficiently.
[0048] There are two explosion-proof submersible pumps 7, which are connected to the anti-eddy device 6 through pipelines. The two submersible pumps are arranged in parallel and equipped with independent control circuits to achieve main and standby alternate operation. The switching period is 24 hours, and a slow-closing check valve is used to prevent the occurrence of water hammer effect during switching. A check valve 8 is also installed at the outlet end of the submersible pump to prevent the backflow of water.
[0049] The explosion-proof submersible pump 7 is signal-connected to the PLC controller and dynamically adjusts its operating frequency according to the detection data of the liquid level sensor 2 to ensure that the permeate water can be transported to the cooling water tank 9 at a constant flow rate.
[0050] 4. Arrangement of the cooling water tank 9 and the drainage pipeline
[0051] The cooling water tank 9, as the terminal water storage facility, receives the treated permeate water through the drainage pipeline. The design of the drainage pipeline should consider factors such as terrain and water flow resistance to ensure that the permeate water can flow smoothly into the cooling water tank.
[0052] A flow meter and a pressure gauge are installed on the drainage pipeline to monitor the flow rate and pressure of the permeate water in real time, providing data support for the optimized operation of the system. Specific Embodiment 2
[0054] II. An automatic method for recycling underground permeate water, specifically implemented as follows:
[0055] 1. System startup and water quality detection
[0056] When the water level in the permeate water collection chamber 1 reaches the high control point, the liquid level sensor 2 sends a signal to the PLC controller to trigger the system start signal. At this time, the on-line water quality monitor 3 starts to analyze the permeate water in real time.
[0057] If the water quality parameters (such as pH value, conductivity, suspended solid concentration) exceed the preset range, the PLC controller will close the electric control valve 5 and start the alarm device to prompt the operator to handle it.
[0058] 2. Treatment and transportation of permeate water
[0059] The permeate water meeting the water quality requirements passes through the anti-clogging filter 4 and the anti-eddy device 6 in sequence, and is pressurized and transported by the explosion-proof submersible pump 7. During the transportation process, the PLC controller dynamically adjusts the operating frequency of the submersible pump according to the detection data of the liquid level sensor 2 to ensure that the permeate water can be transported to the cooling water tank 9 at a constant flow rate.
[0060] 3. Switching and backwashing of main and standby submersible pumps
[0061] Two explosion-proof submersible pumps 7 adopt the main and standby alternating operation mode, and the switching period is 24 hours. When switching, a slow-closing check valve is used to prevent the occurrence of water hammer effect.
[0062] When the pressure difference of the anti-clogging filter 4 exceeds 0.1 MPa, the PLC controller will automatically start the backwashing program. Close the main conveying pipeline and open the standby pipeline, and backwash the anti-clogging filter with 3 bar pressure water for 90 - 120 seconds. The backwashing wastewater is discharged to the emergency treatment pool for treatment.
[0063] 4. Flow regulation and control
[0064] The PLC controller controls the opening of the electric control valve 5 through the fuzzy PID algorithm to make the flow fluctuation range of the explosion-proof submersible pump 7 not exceed ±5%. This advanced control strategy can ensure the stable operation of the system and improve the recycling efficiency.
[0065] Through the description of the above specific embodiments, it can be seen that an automatic device and method for underground permeate water recycling of the present invention has the characteristics of high efficiency, stability, energy saving and intelligence. The device and method can realize the efficient collection, treatment and recycling of underground permeate water, which helps to improve the water resource utilization efficiency, reduce the production cost, ensure the production safety, realize the intelligent control and promote the sustainable development.
[0066] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and not to limit them. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention can be modified or equivalently replaced without departing from the purpose and scope of the present technical solution, and they should all be covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
