[0002] Soil leachate refers to the aqueous solution that penetrates downward through soil pores under the action of precipitation, irrigation and other moisture and carries various solutes in the soil. It contains various components such as ions, organic matters, and trace elements in the soil, and is an important carrier for the material exchange and energy transfer between the soil and the external environment. The accurate determination of the composition of soil leachate can provide rich and key information for soil environment research and has irreplaceable significance in many fields. Soil leachate contains components such as nitrate, phosphate, potassium ion, calcium ion, etc. By analyzing the concentration and form of these anions and cations in the soil leachate, the fertility and environmental pollution status of the soil can be accurately evaluated, providing theoretical support for the protection and management of the ecosystem.

[0007] After the preliminarily filtered leachate enters the pretreatment column, first control the liquids inside the methanol tank and the water tank to enter the pretreatment column according to the proportional requirements to activate the pretreatment column. The waste liquid after activation flows into the waste liquid bottle. Then control the first motor inside the lifting housing, and drive the connecting rod to move up and down through the first motor, so as to control the downward movement of the waste liquid bottle to separate from the bottom of the pretreatment column. Subsequently, start the second motor inside the rotating housing, drive the sixth gear to rotate through the second motor, rotate the collection bottle to the bottom of the pretreatment column, and start the first motor again to drive the collection bottle to move up, so that the collection bottle fits with the bottom of the pretreatment column to collect the leachate.

[0018] 1. In the present invention, the leachate in the leaching column can be collected through the filtering device. The filter membrane inside the filtering device can remove impurities such as suspended particulate matter and microorganisms in the leachate. Before the leachate enters the pretreatment column, the liquids in the methanol tank and the water tank are first controlled to enter the pretreatment column according to the proportional requirements to activate the pretreatment column. The waste liquid after activation can be collected through the waste liquid bottle. By starting the first motor inside the lifting housing, the waste liquid bottle and the collection bottle can be driven to move up and down. Controlling the downward movement of the waste liquid bottle can release the fit with the pretreatment column.

The second gear 25 is fixedly connected with a third gear 28. The third gear 28 is meshed with fourth gears 29 on both sides. A half gear 30 is fixedly connected to the side of the fourth gear 29 away from the lifting housing 9. The half gear 30 is meshed with a bidirectional rack 27 above.

Waste liquid bottles 8 and collection bottles 11 are fixedly connected to both sides of the sixth gear 33.
[0031] After the preliminarily filtered leachate enters the pretreatment column 7, first control the liquids inside the methanol tank 4 and the water tank 5 to be sent into the pretreatment column 7 according to a proportion to activate the pretreatment column 7. The waste liquid after activation flows into the waste liquid bottle 8. Then control the first motor 23 inside the lifting housing 9, drive the connecting rod 26 to move up and down through the first motor 23, so as to control the waste liquid bottle 8 to move down and separate from the bottom of the pretreatment column 7. Subsequently, start the second motor 31 inside the rotating housing 10, drive the sixth gear 33 to rotate through the second motor 31, rotate the collection bottle 11 to the bottom of the pretreatment column 7, and start the first motor 23 again to drive the collection bottle 11 to move up to make the collection bottle 11 fit with the bottom of the pretreatment column 7 to collect the leachate. Water pumps are arranged inside the methanol tank 4 and the water tank 5. The methanol tank 4 and the water tank 5 are connected to the pretreatment column 7 through pipelines. A microfiltration membrane is arranged inside the filtering device 1. The pretreatment column 7 is a C 18 column or an H column, and the inside of the water tank 5 is deionized water.
[0032] A filter bottle 3 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the filtering device 1. A vacuum pump 2 is arranged on one side of the filter bottle 3. An electric valve 6 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the filter bottle 3. The electric valve 6 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the pretreatment column 7.

During the filtration process, a negative pressure can be generated in the filter bottle 3 by the vacuum pump 2, thereby effectively improving the filtration effect. The electric valve 6 can ensure the sealing effect of the filter bottle 3 during the filtration process. When the leachate is being filtered, the liquids inside the methanol tank 4 and the water tank 5 can be controlled to enter the pretreatment column 7 according to the proportional requirements to activate the pretreatment column 7. The waste liquid after activation can be collected by the waste liquid bottle 8 connected at the bottom. Then, start the first motor 23 inside the lifting housing 9. The first motor 23 drives the first gear 24 to rotate. The rotation of the first gear 24 drives the meshing-connected second gear 25 to rotate. The rotation of the second gear 25 drives the third gear 28 to rotate. The rotation of the third gear 28 drives the fourth gears 29 meshing on both sides to rotate. The rotation of the fourth gears 29 drives the upper half gear 30 to rotate. The rotation of the half gear 30 can drive the meshing-connected bidirectional rack 27 to move up and down reciprocally. The movement of the bidirectional rack 27 drives the fixedly connected connecting rod 26 to move as well, and thus can drive the waste liquid bottle 8 and the collection bottle 11 to move up and down.
[0034] Control the waste liquid bottle 8 to move down to release the fit with the pretreatment column 7. Subsequently, drive the fifth gear 32 to rotate by the second motor 31 inside the rotating housing 10. The rotation of the fifth gear 32 drives the meshing-connected sixth gear 33 to rotate. The rotation of the sixth gear 33 can drive the waste liquid bottle 8 and the collection bottle 11 fixedly connected on both sides to rotate, thereby automatically switching the connection at the bottom of the pretreatment column 7. After the switching is completed, control the collection bottle 11 to move up to fit with the pretreatment column 7, and then turn on the electric valve 6 to input the leachate into the pretreatment column 7. The leachate after adsorption finally enters the collection bottle 11. The pH meter 13 at the front end of the collection bottle 11 can measure the pH value of the leachate inside the collection bottle 11. The pH value of the leachate can be adjusted by the solution in the adjustment tank 12. After the treatment is completed, the leachate can enter the ion chromatograph 15 through the sampling tube 14 for detection. The device can automatically complete the collection and pretreatment of the leachate, effectively improving the experimental efficiency.

Using the peristaltic pump 17 as the power source, the accurate control of the flow rate can be simulated under different rainfall states or when sewage infiltrates, overcoming the drawback that the flow rate cannot be accurately controlled during natural water intake. The peristaltic pump 17 can be set for intermittent spraying to simulate small-flow leaching, avoid short-circuit flow, and ensure the uniform penetration of the liquid through the soil layer. The gravel 19, soil 20, and medium sand 21 arranged inside the leaching column 22 can effectively simulate the real soil environment.
