Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of environmental detection equipment, and in particular to a mobile landfill environmental detection equipment. Background Art

[0002] Air quality monitoring at landfills, particularly municipal solid waste landfills, is crucial and multifaceted. It's not just a regulatory requirement; it's fundamental to environmental protection, public health, and safety. The primary focus is monitoring and controlling landfill gas emissions.

[0003] Methane and carbon dioxide: The primary gases produced by anaerobic decomposition of waste are methane and carbon dioxide. Methane is a highly potent greenhouse gas, with a greenhouse gas potential 28-36 times that of carbon dioxide (based on a 100-year average). Measuring methane emissions is crucial for assessing landfills' contributions to climate change and developing mitigation strategies.

[0004] Malodorous gases: Landfill gas contains a variety of malodorous substances, including hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, mercaptans, and organic acids. These gases severely impact the quality of life of surrounding residents and trigger numerous complaints. Continuous monitoring helps identify the source of odor, assess its impact, and verify the effectiveness of deodorization measures.

[0005] Trace amounts of toxic and harmful gases: Landfill gas may also contain trace amounts of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as benzene, toluene, xylene, and chlorinated hydrocarbons, as well as trace amounts of toxic and harmful components such as mercury vapor. These substances pose carcinogenic, teratogenic, and mutagenic risks, posing a potential health threat to nearby residents and workers. Detecting these substances is fundamental to assessing health risks.

Therefore, the sample must reach a certain concentration to be detected by the detector, resulting in low detection sensitivity and limited detection effect. Summary of the Invention

[0008] In response to the problems existing in the background technology, a mobile landfill environment detection equipment is proposed. The present invention provides a detection box with multiple installation stations and a detachable sampling component to cooperate in sampling and detecting the atmospheric environment of the landfill. The detection is efficient and accurate, reducing the workload of the staff.

Before testing, the detection box and the sampling assembly are both set to a vacuum state to reduce detection errors. During testing, the air inlet is controlled by rotating the adjustment ring so that the air inlet and the connecting port are opposite or staggered. The pressure in the sampling chamber is controlled by moving the piston seat up and down, thereby speeding up the sampling and testing process.

The detection box 5 is located on the base 1, and a gas detector 504 is installed in the detection chamber. The detection chamber is connected to the dual-purpose air pump 4 to form a negative pressure environment, which is used to empty the detection chamber before air is admitted. On the other hand, a deformation structure that can squeeze the detection chamber is provided to shrink the detection chamber after air is admitted. The sampling assembly 6 is detachably provided in multiple groups on the detection box 5, and the sampling chamber selectively connects the detection chamber to the external atmosphere.

[0027] It should be further explained that the moving part 2 is of crawler type to meet the movement requirements in an uneven environment of the filling field and facilitate multi-point sampling.

[0028] like Figure 3-Figure 4 As shown, the detection box 5 includes a box body 501; an exhaust seat 503 connected to a dual-purpose air pump 4 is located in the center of the detection chamber; a gas detector 504 is arranged on the exhaust seat 503; and a deformation structure is arranged on the outer periphery of the exhaust seat 503.

[0029] Before testing, the air in the test chamber is evacuated using a dual-purpose air pump (4) to reduce detection errors. During testing, the deformable structure compresses the test chamber to reduce its volume, thereby increasing the concentration of the gas sample and improving detection sensitivity. The deformation amount can be set according to the test requirements.

[0030] It should be further explained that the deformation structure is configured as an annular airbag 502 arranged along the inner wall of the box body 501; the annular airbag 502 realizes telescopic deformation by being connected to a dual-purpose air pump 4 for extraction and extraction.

[0031] It should be further explained that dual-purpose air pump 1 (4) is connected to the annular airbag 502 via pipe 1 (509); it is also connected to the exhaust seat 503 via pipe 2 (508). Dual-purpose air pump 1 (4) has a dual-connector structure, which controls the exhaust seat 503's decompression and the expansion and contraction of the annular airbag 502.

[0032] It should be further explained that a cover 505 is provided on the top of the box body 501; the cover 505 is provided with multiple sets of mounting positions; each of the mounting positions is provided with a through hole 507 that connects to the detection cavity; and the sampling assembly 6 is provided on the mounting position and connects to the detection cavity through the through hole 507. The provision of multiple sets of mounting positions enables batched, independent sampling and testing, thereby improving the flexibility and practicality of the device.

[0033] like Figure 5-Figure 6As shown, the sampling assembly 6 includes a sampling cylinder 601; a vent tube 604 with a valve extending into the through hole 507 is provided at the bottom of the sampling cylinder 601, a circle of air inlet holes 602 are provided on the side wall of the sampling cylinder 601, a ventilation adjustment component for controlling the opening and closing of the air inlet holes 602 is provided inside, and a pressure adjustment component for controlling the inlet and outlet of gas samples is also provided.

[0034] It should be further explained that the bottom of the inner wall of the sampling tube 601 is provided with an annular groove; the ventilation adjustment member includes a drive ring 608 located within the groove and an adjustment ring 606 driven to rotate by a drive member on the drive ring 608; the adjustment ring 606 is provided with communication ports 607 corresponding one-to-one with the air inlet holes 602; a covering area for the air inlet holes 602 is provided between adjacent communication ports 607, and a filter is provided on the communication ports 607; during sampling, the adjustment ring 606 rotates so that the air inlet holes 602 and the communication ports 607 are opposite each other, thereby allowing air to enter.

[0035] It should be further explained that the pressure regulating component includes a dual-purpose air pump 603 for extraction and discharge located on the sampling cylinder 601, whose extraction and discharge ports are connected to the top of the sampling chamber; a piston seat 605 is provided inside the sampling cylinder 601, opposite to the extraction and discharge ports; before sampling, the piston seat 605 is located at the bottom to empty the air in the sampling cylinder 601. During sampling, the piston seat 605 moves upward to draw external gas into the sampling chamber. During testing, the piston seat 605 moves downward to press external gas into the test chamber. After the test is completed, the piston seat 605 moves upward to draw the test sample into the sampling chamber for subsequent further experiments.

[0036] It should be further explained that the mounting position is provided with a mounting base 506; the sampling tube 601 is detachably connected to the mounting base 506; the mounting base 506 is annular and has threads disposed therein; the sampling tube 601 is threadedly mounted on the mounting base 506; and the sampling tube 601 is provided with a handle.

[0041] S4. The valve of the vent tube 604 is closed to form a sealed detection chamber. The annular airbag 502 is inflated and squeezes the detection chamber, further concentrating the gas sample. The gas detector 504 detects the components and content in the gas sample and transmits the results to the backend via the signal transmitter 3.

[0042] S5. After the test is completed, the valve of the vent pipe 604 is opened, and the piston seat 605 moves upward to draw the test sample into the sampling chamber;

[0043] S6. After completing the sampling and testing of all sampling points, the staff removes the sampling component 6 and takes the samples back to the laboratory for further processing.

Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
