Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of ship waste treatment, and in particular to a shipbuilding waste treatment system and a treatment method thereof. Background Art
[0002] There are various types of garbage generated during the shipbuilding process, and the treatment methods vary according to the nature of the waste and environmental regulations. The solid garbage mainly includes: 1. Metal waste from steel cutting, welding, machining and other links, mainly including metal scraps (steel plates, aluminum, etc.), welding slag, metal dust, and waste steel sand (residue after sandblasting and rust removal); 2. Solid waste such as material packaging and construction waste, mainly including plastic film, wooden boxes, foam and other packaging materials, waste insulation materials (such as glass wool, rock wool), waste cables, and rubber products; 3. Food residues and plastic bottles generated by workers; 4. Demolition waste of temporary facilities (such as concrete and bricks).
[0003] Among them, metal scrap can be sold to metal recycling companies after sorting and re-cast into industrial raw materials. Recyclable materials such as plastics and cardboard can be sorted and then enter the recycling channel. Non-recyclable and non-hazardous garbage is handled according to local regulations. Traditional treatment methods usually use manual sorting for classification. Such treatment methods are inefficient and easily lead to waste of recyclable resources, while mixed landfill or incineration causes environmental pollution. In order to facilitate the shipbuilding process, a large amount of solid waste is generated, including: 1. Metal scraps are mainly steel and aluminum; 2. Packaging waste is mainly plastic, wood and foam; 3. Domestic waste mainly consists of organic waste and plastic bottles; 4. Construction waste mainly consists of concrete and bricks; traditional treatment methods rely on manual sorting, which is inefficient and easily leads to waste of recyclable resources, and non-recyclable waste is often mixed and landfilled or incinerated. We now propose a shipbuilding waste treatment system and treatment method, which can automatically and accurately sort four types of solid waste, separate recyclables from non-recyclables, so as to efficiently regenerate recyclable metals, plastics, and wood, and can sort inert waste, combustible waste, hazardous waste and non-recyclables by category for subsequent treatment. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The present invention provides a shipbuilding waste treatment system and treatment method, which solves the problem that the existing technology lacks a "recyclable-non-recyclable" classification treatment system for shipbuilding scenarios. It can automatically and accurately sort four types of solid waste, separate recyclables from non-recyclables, so as to efficiently regenerate recyclables such as metals, plastics, and wood, and can sort inert waste, combustible waste, and hazardous waste non-recyclables by category for subsequent treatment.
[0005] The present invention solves the above-mentioned technical problems with the following solution: A shipbuilding waste treatment system comprises an intelligent sorting module, a recyclables processing module, a non-recyclables processing module, and a central control platform. The intelligent sorting module comprises a multimodal sensing unit and a visual sorting robotic arm. The recyclables processing module comprises a metal recycling unit, a plastic recycling unit, and a wood / foam recycling unit. The non-recyclables processing module comprises an inert waste treatment line, a combustible waste incineration unit, and a hazardous waste temporary storage bin. The central control platform comprises a digital twin system and a compliance management module.
[0006] The multimodal sensing unit includes a metal identification submodule, a material sorting submodule, and a physical property detection submodule;

[0009] The processing method includes the following steps:
[0010] S1: Waste input and initial screening: The waste is evenly laid on the conveyor belt by a vibrating feeder at a conveying speed of 1-2m / s, and metal waste is initially separated through a metal detection gate;
[0011] S2: Multimodal data acquisition: LIBS scans metal composition, NIR identifies plastic / wood types, hyperspectral imaging distinguishes foams from composite materials, gravimetric-volume analyzer calculates density, and air flotation device pre-separates light / heavy materials;
[0012] S3: Classification decision: The vision system generates a 3D point cloud model, and the CNN model outputs classification labels such as "304 stainless steel scraps" and "HDPE plastic film." The decision system integrates sensor data to determine whether the waste is recyclable or non-recyclable, and the specific treatment path;
[0013] S4: Robotic arm sorting execution: The robotic arm grabs the target garbage according to the path planning and puts it into the corresponding collection box according to the category. Recyclable metal is sent to the metal recycling unit conveyor belt, recyclable plastic is sent to the plastic granulator feed port, non-recyclable concrete is sent to the construction waste crusher, and hazardous waste is sent to the sealed hazardous waste container;
[0014] S5: Data synchronization sorting results: The sorting results (such as missorting rate and processing speed) are uploaded to the central management platform, and the model automatically updates the weight parameters.
[0015] On the basis of the above technical solution, the present invention can also be improved as follows.
[0016] Furthermore, the electromagnetic induction sensor is used to detect the conductivity and magnetism of metals, thereby being able to distinguish between magnetic metals such as iron and steel and non-magnetic metals such as aluminum and copper.

The optical sorter sorts plastic bottles according to resin type (PET, PE), the twin-screw extruder granulator generates recycled plastic particles, the wood / foam recycling unit crushes the wood and hot-presses it into biomass fuel, and the foam is dissolved by solvent to recover polystyrene (PS) raw materials.
[0020] Furthermore, the air flotation separation device utilizes the difference in air flow velocity to separate light materials (such as plastic film) and heavy materials (such as metal chips) into layers.
[0021] Furthermore, the industrial camera array captures the shape of garbage from multiple angles, including size, color, and texture, to generate 3D point cloud data. The deep learning model uses a classification model (such as ResNet-50) trained with a convolutional neural network (CNN) to determine the category of garbage in real time.
[0022] Furthermore, the six-axis collaborative robotic arm is equipped with an adaptive gripper, which includes a magnetic gripper and a vacuum suction cup. The magnetic gripper is used for metal, and the vacuum suction cup is used for film. The adaptive gripper has a response time of ≤0.5 seconds.
