Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of groundwater monitoring and treatment, in particular to an assembled adjustable permeable reaction wall structure and a method for treating a contaminated plume thereof. Background Art
[0002] Permeable reactive walls (PRBs) are a common in-situ remediation technology for underground water. They construct permeable treatment cells containing specialized active fillers along the contaminated groundwater flow path. Under the influence of natural hydraulic gradients, they intercept or remove pollutants through adsorption, precipitation, redox, or biochemical reactions. PRB technology offers advantages such as simple construction, the absence of external power plants or surface treatment systems, and a long operational life. However, as PRBs operate underground, reaction products gradually accumulate within the walls, reducing porosity and permeability, thereby weakening the PRB's hydraulic interception capacity and increasing the risk of contamination plume bypass. Furthermore, the consumption of active fillers and the reduction in reactive surface area caused by mineral precipitation also reduce the PRB's long-term remediation performance. Therefore, PRBs require replacement or cleaning of the filler material after a period of use. Currently, PRB filler replacement or cleaning is accomplished by first excavating the old filler buried underground using excavation equipment and then directly filling it with new filler, or by cleaning and purifying the old filler before refilling. However, because PRB fillers are mostly loose and granular and interact with the surrounding soil, traditional excavation and replacement methods present challenges such as difficulty replacing partially failed fillers, high construction complexity, the potential for secondary pollution and sidewall collapse, and high costs. Furthermore, because PRBs are mostly fixed structures with fixed dimensions and filler volume, their treatment capacity is limited, and their ability to respond poorly to fluctuations in pollution loads (influent quality and quantity) is limited.
[0003] In summary, the core problems of existing PRB technology include: (1) The fixed structure has great limitations: Traditional PRBs are mostly fixed in design and cannot flexibly adjust the treatment capacity according to changes in water quality and quantity (for example, when the flow rate difference between dry season and rainy season is large, the PRB treatment efficiency fluctuates significantly); (2) The difficulty of replacing the filler: Replacing the filler requires shutting down the machine or dismantling the structure, resulting in interruption of the repair and affecting the continuity of groundwater remediation. For example, the utility model patent with patent publication number CN216377762U discloses a device for remediating organically contaminated groundwater using PRB technology, which includes a pH adjustment tank, a chemical oxidation tank, and a water reservoir arranged in sequence. The pH adjustment tank, the chemical oxidation tank, and the water reservoir are connected by a pipeline, and a circulation pump is installed on the pipeline. An injection well, a PRB filling wall, and a pumping well are arranged in sequence along the flow direction of the organically contaminated groundwater; a clean water pump is provided inside the pumping well, and the water outlet end of the submersible pump is connected to a pumping pipeline. The upper end of the pumping pipeline is connected to the pH adjustment tank, and the upper part of the water reservoir is connected to the injection well through an injection pipe. The utility model can effectively solve the problem of low efficiency in remediating organically contaminated groundwater by combining upstream in-situ injection oxidation, adsorption degradation by the PRB reaction system, and downstream monitoring and extraction treatment. However, the device still has the problem of inconvenient replacement of PRB fillers. Summary of the Invention

[0020] The present invention also provides a method for treating a pollution plume by assembling an adjustable permeable reactive wall structure, comprising the following steps:
[0021] S1. Determination of the size of the permeable reaction wall: All the stuffing box components together form the permeable reaction wall. By adjusting the blocking position of the two blocking slides, the permeable length, permeable width and permeable height of the permeable reaction wall can be adjusted according to the actual environmental conditions. The calculation formula is as follows:
[0022] T PRB =u·t R ·SF
[0023]
[0024] Where, T PRB is the thickness of the permeable reactive wall, in m; L PRB is the permeable length of the permeable reaction wall, in m; H PRB is the permeable height of the permeable reaction wall, in m; u is the actual groundwater flow rate through the permeable reaction wall, in m·d -1 ;t R is the residence time required for the pollutant to be reduced to the target concentration level, in d; C0 is the influent concentration of the permeable reaction wall, in mg·L -1; C s is the target effluent concentration of the permeable reaction wall, in mg·L -1 ; k is the first-order reaction rate constant, unit h -1 SF is the safety factor, which is 3 to 5; Q is the groundwater flow through the permeable reaction wall, in m 3 ·d -1 ;t L is the theoretical operating life of the PRB stuffing box, in d; q max The maximum adsorption capacity of PRB active filler for pollutants, unit g·g -1 ; ρ is the dry density of PRB active filler, unit is g·L -1 ;θ is the porosity of PRB active filler;
[0025] S2. Replacement of active filler: When the active filler inside the PRB filler box needs to be replaced, the two filler box assemblies in the middle are taken out as a whole, and the filler box assemblies on both sides slide inward to fill the position of the taken out filler box assemblies. Then, a whole set of filler box assemblies consisting of PRB filler boxes filled with new active filler are placed from both sides of the permeable reaction wall, and so on to complete the replacement of all the filler box assemblies that need to be replaced.
[0026] Furthermore, the theoretical operating life of the PRB stuffing box in S1 is t L It is 1825d.

[0028] Note: By optimizing the proportional relationship between the permeability coefficient of the active filler and the permeability coefficient of the aqueous medium surrounding the permeable reaction wall, the particle size of the active filler with the best water permeability efficiency is optimized.
[0029] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

In terms of structural design, it adopts a double-gate parallel connection, upper and lower integral series filler boxes and an active filler thickness adjustable structural design concept to ensure that the target pollutants are completely blocked or intercepted in the PRB; in terms of filler design, it adopts a modular design concept of partition replacement and standardized filler boxes to achieve rapid replacement and response of PRB fillers.
[0031] (2) The present invention provides an adjustable permeable reaction wall structure that can flexibly adjust the filler volume and treatment capacity according to the pollution load, and flexibly adjust the filler volume of the PRB and its pollutant treatment capacity to adapt to changes in the influent water volume and water quality; and can set up multiple reaction zones according to different fillers, perform graded treatment for different pollutants, and combine multiple pollutant treatment technologies (physical, chemical or biological, etc.) to improve treatment efficiency.
[0032] (3) The present invention adopts an adjustable assembly permeable reaction wall structure that divides the PRB into multiple modules, each of which can be filled and replaced independently, reducing the construction workload and lowering the cost. Standardized stuffing boxes are used to facilitate on-site assembly and replacement. According to specific groundwater remediation scenarios, target pollutants and pollution loads, customized matching stuffing boxes are provided, including stuffing type, particle size distribution, etc., to ensure that its reactivity and permeability can meet the remediation requirements. The stuffing plastic boxes are developed in a productized, modularized and standardized manner and are mass-produced in factories. Each stuffing box is transported to the site for rapid assembly and is plug-and-play, with good scalability, sustainability and resistance stability. In addition, when the reaction material loses its activity due to adsorption saturation, resulting in a decrease in purification efficiency, the stuffing box filled with the reaction material can be taken out for material recycling and reuse and replaced with new reaction material, and the stuffing replacement can be achieved while maintaining its processing capacity.
[0033] (4) The method of treating pollution plumes by assembling an adjustable permeable reaction wall structure according to the present invention can achieve
[0034] Intelligent monitoring and real-time feedback: sensors are used to monitor the PRB's inlet concentration, outlet concentration, water velocity, flux and other parameters in real time. Based on the monitoring data, when the PRB is broken down (i.e., the packing fails), prompts are given to adjust the PRB structure or replace the packing. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0065] Example 6
[0066] This embodiment is a method for treating a pollution plume by assembling an adjustable permeable reactive wall structure according to embodiment 1, comprising the following steps:
[0067] S1. Determine the size of the permeable reaction wall: All the stuffing box assemblies 1 together form a permeable reaction wall. By adjusting the blocking positions of the two blocking slides 3, the permeable length, permeable width, and permeable height of the permeable reaction wall can be adjusted according to actual environmental conditions. The calculation formula is as follows:
[0068] T PRB =u·t R ·SF
[0069]
[0070] Where, T PRB is the thickness of the permeable reactive wall, in m; L PRB is the permeable length of the permeable reaction wall, in m; H PRB is the permeable height of the permeable reaction wall, in m; u is the actual groundwater flow rate through the permeable reaction wall, in m·d -1 ;t R is the residence time required for the pollutant to be reduced to the target concentration level, in d; C0 is the influent concentration of the permeable reaction wall, in mg·L -1 ; C s is the target effluent concentration of the permeable reaction wall, in mg·L -1 ; k is the first-order reaction rate constant, unit h -1 SF is the safety factor, ranging from 3 to 5; Q is the groundwater flow through the permeable reaction wall, in m3·d -1 ;t L is the theoretical operating life of the PRB stuffing box 11, in d; q max The maximum adsorption capacity of PRB active filler for pollutants, unit g·g -1 ; ρ is the dry density of PRB active filler, unit is g·L-1 ;θ is the porosity of PRB active filler;
[0071] The permeability coefficient of the active filler is 8 times the permeability coefficient of the aqueous medium surrounding the permeable reaction wall, and the pore size of the screen 12 is 1 / 3 of the pore size of the active filler;
[0072] S2. Replacement of active filler: When the active filler inside the PRB stuffing box 11 needs to be replaced, the two stuffing box assemblies 1 in the middle are taken out as a whole, and at the same time, the stuffing box assemblies 1 on both sides slide inward to fill the position of the taken out stuffing box assemblies 1, and then a whole group of stuffing box assemblies 1 consisting of PRB stuffing boxes 11 filled with new active filler are placed from both sides of the permeable reaction wall, and so on to complete the replacement of all stuffing box assemblies 1 that need to be replaced.
[0073] Example 7
[0074] This embodiment differs from embodiment 6 in that:
[0075] The permeability coefficient of the active filler is twice the permeability coefficient of the aqueous medium surrounding the permeable reaction wall, and the pore size of the screen 12 is 1 / 3 of the pore size of the active filler.
[0076] Example 8
[0077] This embodiment differs from embodiment 6 in that:
[0078] The permeability coefficient of the active filler is 10 times the permeability coefficient of the aqueous medium surrounding the permeable reaction wall, and the pore size of the screen 12 is 1 / 2 of the pore size of the active filler.
[0079] Working principle: The working principle of an assembled adjustable permeable reaction wall structure of the present invention is briefly described below in combination with the method of the present invention.
[0080] When performing S1, it is necessary to adjust the blocking position of the blocking slide 3, turn on the driving motor 5, and drive the first rotating shaft 51 to rotate. At the same time, under the action of the first transmission steel chain 6 and the second transmission steel chain 7, the second rotating shaft 52 and the third rotating shaft 53 are driven to rotate synchronously, so that the two sets of T-shaped blocks 71 drive the two blocking slides 3 to slide inward along the first sliding groove 21, and at the same time, each plugging plate 31 is docked and inserted into each slot 13 to complete the blocking of the screen 12 and prevent water from flowing through.
[0081] When S2 is performed, the stuffing box assembly 1 needs to be replaced, and the hooks 16 on the two stuffing box assemblies 1 in the middle are connected by an external steel wire rope, and the two stuffing box assemblies 1 are lifted out by a winch. At the same time, when the stuffing box assembly 1 is lifted out, the limiting grooves 15 at the bottom of the two stuffing box assemblies 1 on the two most sides are gradually pushed out under the combined action of hydraulic force and the thrust of the spring 26. When the outer end of the bow-shaped clamping block 8 is pushed upward through the second slot 25, the limiting groove 15 is pushed under the action of the arc end surface, and the entire stuffing box assembly 1 is pushed together with the hydraulic action and the buoyancy action, thereby pushing the stuffing box assemblies 1 on both sides to the middle position;
[0082] Subsequently, the new stuffing box assembly 1 with the replaced active filler is placed to the positions on both sides of the permeable reaction wall by a ground winch. After being placed, the bow-shaped block 8 is pressed down. At the same time, the top of the bow-shaped block 8 on the inner side is also squeezed by the limiting groove 15 and descends through the second slot 24, thereby completing the resetting of the bow-shaped block 8 and the replacement of the stuffing box assembly 1.

[0085] Assuming the theoretical operating life of the PRB is 5 years, the groundwater flow through the PRB is 52.8m 3 ·d -1 The thickness of the aquifer at the installation location is about 16m. At the same time, according to the requirements, the bottom of the PRB should be embedded 0.6m below the weak permeable layer. Therefore, H PRB is 16.6m, and the T PRB Substituting into the above formula, the required L can be calculated PRB The length, width, and height of the stuffing box assembly 1 are now calculated.
