Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of mine ecological geological restoration, and in particular to a method for geological restoration of mining areas. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, mineral carbon sequestration (MCS) technology has attracted widespread attention as an emerging geochemical remediation method. Its basic principle is to utilize abundant silicate minerals (such as olivine and serpentine) in mining areas to react with industrially captured carbon dioxide, generating stable carbonate minerals (such as magnesite and calcite), thereby achieving permanent carbon dioxide sequestration while simultaneously neutralizing acidic wastewater and passivating heavy metal ions. This method is considered a highly promising "waste-to-resource" remediation strategy that can address both climate change and the mining environment.
[0003] However, existing mineral carbon sequestration technologies suffer from extensive process control, lacking detailed insights and forward-looking regulation of processes such as carbon dioxide transport, reaction heat effects, and fluid-mineral interactions in complex underground porous media. This results in slow reaction rates, low sequestration efficiency, and high consumption of reagents and energy, leading to poor economic viability. Secondly, the underground environment of mining areas is highly heterogeneous and uncertain. Traditional methods struggle to effectively predict and prevent engineering and environmental risks such as injection well blockage, microseismic events induced by excessive pore pressure, and excessive acidification of the reaction zone, making it difficult to guarantee the safety and reliability of system operation. Furthermore, most existing technologies focus solely on carbon sequestration itself, failing to organically integrate the remediation process with the recycling of waste resources in the mining area.
[0004] In summary, existing mineral carbon sequestration technologies generally lack sufficient understanding and control over the complex system of a mining area. They can only perform "blind injection" or passive responses based on limited point data, resulting in core defects such as low sequestration efficiency and high consumption of reagents and energy. There is an urgent need for a new geological remediation method for mining areas to solve these problems. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of the aforementioned problems, this application is made in order to provide a geological remediation method for mining areas that overcomes or at least partially solves the aforementioned problems.
[0006] This application discloses a method for geological remediation of a mining area, including the following steps: The environmental parameters and reaction status data of the mining area to be restored are obtained through a sensor network. The sensor network includes pH, Eh, humidity, temperature and pressure sensors deployed at the mining site, as well as periodic exploration data obtained through UAV remote sensing and geophysical exploration. Based on the environmental parameters and reaction status data, a digital twin is constructed and run. The digital twin is used to simulate the migration of carbon dioxide in the mining area to be restored and its reaction with minerals. Based on the simulation results of the digital twin, an injection strategy for controlling the carbon sequestration reaction process is generated; According to the injection strategy, the injection equipment is controlled to inject the reaction medium into the mining area to be repaired; The operating status of the injection equipment is monitored and faults are predicted, and maintenance instructions are generated.
[0007] Furthermore, the digital twin is a multiphysics coupling model based on geology, geochemistry, and fluid dynamics. The step of constructing and running the digital twin based on the environmental parameters and reaction state data specifically includes the following steps: By integrating real-time data and periodic exploration data from the sensor network, a high-precision three-dimensional geological attribute model is constructed using a geostatistical interpolation algorithm. The three-dimensional geological attribute model includes a porosity distribution field, a permeability distribution field, a mineral composition distribution field, and an initial hydrochemical field. A multiphysics coupled mathematical model is established, and the feedback mechanism of bidirectional coupling between fluid dynamics equations, convection-diffusion-reaction equations, geochemical equations and energy conservation equations, as well as the corresponding initial and boundary conditions, are defined. The finite element numerical analysis method is used to discretize and iteratively solve the coupled nonlinear partial differential equations. The simulation is advanced in a time-step manner to dynamically simulate the entire process of plume migration, chemical reaction, temperature change and metal ion activation after carbon dioxide injection. The real-time data of the sensor network is compared with the simulation predictions at the corresponding time step and location. If the error exceeds the preset threshold, the ensemble Kalman filter is activated to back-optimize and adjust the key uncertainty parameters in the model. The calculation results of each time step are extracted to generate a dynamically evolving four-dimensional visualization field, and macroscopic performance parameters are calculated. The four-dimensional visualization field includes four-dimensional images of carbon dioxide saturation field, pH value field, secondary mineral precipitation field and metal enrichment field.
[0008] Furthermore, the step of generating an injection strategy for controlling the carbon sequestration reaction process based on the simulation results of the digital twin specifically includes the following steps: The simulation results of the digital twin are analyzed and features are extracted to calculate the carbon sequestration rate, reaction efficiency and metal enrichment data, and a comprehensive characterization vector is generated. The reinforcement learning agent receives the comprehensive representation vector, quantifies and evaluates the long-term benefits of different control actions through a reward function, and outputs the optimal injection strategy. The control action is a set of control instructions. The optimal injection strategy is simulated in the digital twin, and the simulation results are compared with the preset security operation boundaries. When the simulation results exceed the safety boundary, the optimal injection strategy is regenerated and the simulation is performed again until an optimal injection strategy that can pass the security check is generated.
[0009] Furthermore, the safe operating boundaries include the maximum allowable wellhead pressure, the allowable pH fluctuation range, the maximum instantaneous carbon dioxide injection rate, and the maximum formation pore pressure threshold. The step of regenerating the optimal injection strategy and performing another simulation when the simulation results exceed the safe boundaries, until an optimal injection strategy that passes the safety verification is generated, specifically includes the following steps: When the simulation results exceed the security boundary, a security verification failure signal is issued along with information indicating that the limit has been exceeded. The current injection strategy is then marked as an invalid strategy and discarded. After receiving a security check failure signal, the reinforcement learning agent applies a corresponding penalty to its decision-making logic based on the information of exceeding the limit, thereby generating a more conservative new strategy. The new strategy was simulated again in the digital twin, and the simulation results were verified for security. When a pre-run result shows that all indicators remain within the safety boundary throughout the pre-run period, a safety verification pass signal is issued, and the strategy is marked as the optimal injection strategy output.
[0010] Furthermore, after the step of issuing a security verification pass signal and marking the strategy as the optimal injection strategy output when a certain pre-simulation result shows that all indicators remain within the safety boundary throughout the pre-simulation period, the method further includes the step of: When the number of iterations of the injection strategy exceeds a preset threshold, the security verification loop is terminated and it is determined that there is no feasible solution under the current constraints. Package all rejected strategies' detailed parameters and their exceeding information to generate a diagnostic report; The diagnostic report is pushed to the engineer through the enterprise communication platform, and the engineer makes a decision and develops a specific human intervention plan.
[0011] Furthermore, the step of controlling the injection device to inject the reaction medium into the mining area to be repaired according to the injection strategy specifically includes the following steps: The injection strategy is compiled into standardized industrial control instructions, and an independent task instruction package containing device ID, target parameters and execution time is generated for each smart injection well. The task instruction packet is sent to the programmable logic controller of the target injection well via industrial Ethernet, and the programmable logic controller returns an acknowledgment signal after completing the instruction verification. The programmable logic controller drives the connected actuators to perform precise actions according to the instructions. During the process, the sensors integrated into the injection well body continuously collect actual operating data; The closed-loop control algorithm compares the deviation between the actual operating data and the target value, and automatically issues fine-tuning instructions to accurately match the target.
[0012] Furthermore, the step of monitoring the operating status and predicting faults of the injection device, and generating maintenance instructions, specifically includes the following steps: Continuously collect real-time operating data such as vibration, pressure, and flow of the injection equipment, and correlate them with environmental data such as media properties. Through feature extraction, key indicators characterizing the health status of the equipment are obtained. Using the device's digital twin, the current operating characteristics are compared with the health baseline in real time. When the characteristic value is found to deviate continuously from the preset threshold, a primary anomaly alarm is triggered. Based on the Long Short-Term Memory Network Fault Prediction Model, time series data is analyzed to predict the probability of a specific fault occurring in the future and its remaining useful life. The prediction results are input into the decision rule engine, which automatically matches the optimal maintenance strategy based on the fault type, probability, and RUL, and generates structured instructions that include maintenance objects, types, resources, and operation guidelines. Maintenance instructions are automatically distributed to the responsible team or autonomous robot in the form of work orders, and feedback data is collected after maintenance is completed to update the predictive model and digital twin, thereby achieving closed-loop learning and continuous optimization.
[0013] This application also discloses a geological restoration system for mining areas, including: The data collection module is used to acquire environmental parameters and reaction status data of the mining area to be repaired through a sensor network. The sensor network includes pH, Eh, humidity, temperature and pressure sensors deployed at the mining site, as well as periodic exploration data acquired through UAV remote sensing and geophysical exploration. A digital twin construction module is used to construct and run a digital twin based on the environmental parameters and reaction state data. The digital twin is used to simulate the migration of carbon dioxide in the mining area to be restored and its reaction with minerals. An injection strategy generation module is used to generate an injection strategy for controlling the carbon sequestration reaction process based on the simulation results of the digital twin. An execution module is used to control the injection device to inject a reaction medium into the mining area to be repaired, according to the injection strategy. The injection equipment monitoring module is used to monitor the operating status of the injection equipment and predict faults, and generate maintenance instructions.
[0014] This application also discloses a computer device, including a processor, a memory, and a computer program stored in the memory and capable of running on the processor. When the computer program is executed by the processor, it implements the steps of a geological restoration method for a mining area as described above.
[0015] This application also discloses a computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program, which, when executed by a processor, implements the steps of a geological restoration method for a mining area as described above.

[0025] The following will further describe a geological restoration method for a mining area in this exemplary embodiment.
[0026] As described in step S120, a digital twin is constructed and run based on the environmental parameters and reaction state data. The digital twin is used to simulate the migration of carbon dioxide in the mining area to be restored and its reaction with minerals.
[0027] In one embodiment of the present invention, the specific process of "constructing and running a digital twin based on the environmental parameters and reaction state data" in step S120 can be further described in conjunction with the following description.
[0028] As described in the following steps By integrating real-time data and periodic exploration data from the sensor network, a high-precision three-dimensional geological attribute model is constructed using a geostatistical interpolation algorithm. The three-dimensional geological attribute model includes a porosity distribution field, a permeability distribution field, a mineral composition distribution field, and an initial hydrochemical field. A multiphysics coupled mathematical model is established, and the feedback mechanism of bidirectional coupling between fluid dynamics equations, convection-diffusion-reaction equations, geochemical equations and energy conservation equations, as well as the corresponding initial and boundary conditions, are defined. The finite element numerical analysis method is used to discretize and iteratively solve the coupled nonlinear partial differential equations. The simulation is advanced in a time-step manner to dynamically simulate the entire process of plume migration, chemical reaction, temperature change and metal ion activation after carbon dioxide injection. The real-time data of the sensor network is compared with the simulation predictions at the corresponding time step and location. If the error exceeds the preset threshold, the ensemble Kalman filter is activated to back-optimize and adjust the key uncertainty parameters in the model. The calculation results of each time step are extracted to generate a dynamically evolving four-dimensional visualization field, and macroscopic performance parameters are calculated. The four-dimensional visualization field includes four-dimensional images of carbon dioxide saturation field, pH value field, secondary mineral precipitation field and metal enrichment field.
[0029] It should be noted that the digital twin is a multiphysics coupled model based on geology, geochemistry, and fluid dynamics. The "ensemble Kalman filter" is a sequential data assimilation algorithm that maintains a set of model states to characterize the prediction error covariance. When observation data (i.e., real-time sensor data) arrives, the algorithm updates the entire set of states by calculating the Kalman gain, ensuring that the updated set of states conforms to the model dynamics and approximates the observation data. This process effectively integrates observation information into the model, thereby reducing simulation errors caused by uncertainties in model parameters (such as permeability and reaction rate constant), and significantly improving the prediction accuracy and reliability of the digital twin.
[0030] As an example, the "multiphysics coupling" can be implemented in different ways, such as: combining all governing equations into a large system of equations for simultaneous solution through direct coupling (full coupling); solving each physical field sequentially through sequential coupling (iterative coupling), and iteratively passing coupling variables at each time step until convergence; or decomposing the complex multiphysics problem into a series of single-physics problems for approximate solution through operator splitting. The generation and display of the "four-dimensional visualization field" can be achieved through various technical approaches, such as: post-processing using open-source scientific visualization software like ParaView and VisIt; remote real-time monitoring through an interactive web visualization platform based on WebGL technology; or immersive data visualization and analysis using virtual reality (VR) devices, thereby providing engineers with intuitive and powerful tools for understanding complex underground processes.
[0031] In one specific implementation, the "finite element numerical analysis method" can be implemented using an unstructured mesh: First, a mesh is generated based on the generated three-dimensional geological model, and local mesh refinement technology is used for key areas such as complex geological bodies (e.g., faults, fractures) and the area around injection wells; then, the partial differential equation system is transformed into a large sparse linear algebraic equation system using the Galerkin weighted residual method; finally, combined with a high-performance computing cluster, iterative algorithms such as the preprocessed conjugate gradient method are used for efficient solution, thereby achieving high-resolution simulation of multi-field coupling processes under large-scale complex geological conditions.
[0032] As described in step S130, an injection strategy for controlling the carbon sequestration reaction process is generated based on the simulation results of the digital twin.
[0033] In one embodiment of the present invention, the specific process of "generating an injection strategy for controlling the carbon sequestration reaction process based on the simulation results of the digital twin" in step S130 can be further described in conjunction with the following description.
[0034] As described in the following steps The simulation results of the digital twin are analyzed and features are extracted to calculate the carbon sequestration rate, reaction efficiency and metal enrichment data, and a comprehensive characterization vector is generated. The reinforcement learning agent receives the comprehensive representation vector, quantifies and evaluates the long-term benefits of different control actions through a reward function, and outputs the optimal injection strategy. The control action is a set of control instructions. The optimal injection strategy is simulated in the digital twin, and the simulation results are compared with the preset security operation boundaries. When the simulation results exceed the safety boundary, the optimal injection strategy is regenerated and the simulation is performed again until an optimal injection strategy that can pass the security check is generated.
[0035] It should be noted that the "comprehensive characterization vector" is a process of condensing the multi-dimensional, multi-scale simulation data output by the digital twin into a machine-understandable and information-rich low-dimensional vector. This vector includes not only macroscopic performance indicators (such as cumulative carbon sequestration) but also key statistics that reflect the spatial distribution characteristics of underground reactions (such as the spatial variance of the pH field and the spatial autocorrelation length of carbon dioxide saturation), thus providing a comprehensive and compact state description for subsequent intelligent decision-making. The "safe operating boundary" is a set of hard constraints set to prevent engineering failure and environmental risks. These boundaries include not only equipment-level hard limits (such as the maximum rated pressure of the injection pump and the maximum opening of the valve) but also geological environment-level soft constraints (such as the upper limit of formation pore pressure set to prevent the induction of microseismic events and the pH fluctuation range set to protect the stability of the surrounding rock). The pre-simulation comparison is to verify the time-series curves of key parameters simulated by the digital twin under strategy-driven conditions against these boundary values one by one.
[0036] As an example, the "reinforcement learning agent" can be implemented through different algorithmic architectures, such as: using algorithms suitable for continuous action spaces like Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (DDPG) or Soft Actor-Critic (SAC); using Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) to ensure the stability of the training process; or based on a multi-agent reinforcement learning framework, assigning the task of controlling different injection wells to a cooperative subset of agents to achieve distributed collaborative optimization. The "regeneration of the optimal injection policy" can be implemented through various optimization strategies, such as: using constrained policy optimization methods, directly embedding the safety boundary as a constraint in the policy search space; using a penalty function method, greatly increasing the negative reward for violating the safety boundary in the reward function to guide the agent to actively avoid dangerous areas; or using a projection method, projecting the unsafe policy onto the nearest valid point in the set of safe policies.
[0037] In one specific implementation, the "reward function" can be implemented through a multi-objective weighted summation. The design formula for the reward function R is: R = W_1*ΔCarbonation + W_2*ΔMetalEnrichment - W_3*EnergyCost - W_4*ChemicalCost - W_5*pHViolationPenalty; where ΔCarbonation represents the amount of carbonate minerals generated in this time step, ΔMetalEnrichment represents the increase in the target metal concentration, EnergyCost and ChemicalCost represent energy consumption and reagent cost, respectively, pHViolationPenalty is a penalty term for pH values exceeding the optimal reaction range, and W_1 to W_5 are weighting coefficients pre-set according to the priority of the repair objectives. The goal of the agent is to maximize the expected value of future cumulative rewards through learning, thereby automatically exploring a control strategy that optimally balances storage efficiency, resource recovery, and economic costs.
[0038] As described in the following steps, when the simulation results exceed the security boundary, the optimal injection strategy is regenerated and the simulation is performed again until an optimal injection strategy that can pass the security check is generated.
[0039] In one embodiment of the present invention, the specific process of the above step "when the pre-simulation result exceeds the security boundary, regenerate the optimal injection strategy and perform pre-simulation again until an optimal injection strategy that can pass the security check is generated" can be further described in conjunction with the following description: S1341: When the pre-simulation result exceeds the security boundary, a security verification failure signal is issued along with the over-limit information, and the current injection strategy is marked as an invalid strategy and discarded. S1342: After receiving a security check failure signal, the reinforcement learning agent applies a corresponding penalty to its decision-making logic based on the exceeding information, and generates a more conservative new strategy. S1343: Perform a pre-simulation of the new strategy in the digital twin again, and perform a security verification on the pre-simulation results; S1344: When a pre-run result shows that all indicators remain within the safety boundary throughout the pre-run period, a safety verification pass signal is issued, and the strategy is marked as the optimal injection strategy output.
[0040] It should be noted that the safety operation boundaries include the maximum allowable wellhead pressure, the allowable pH fluctuation range, the maximum instantaneous carbon dioxide injection rate, and the maximum formation pore pressure threshold. The "exceedance information" is a structured data packet that not only indicates which safety indicators (such as wellhead pressure and pH) have exceeded the limits, but also records in detail the specific values of the exceedances, the time of occurrence, the duration, and their location in three-dimensional space. This detailed information provides precise feedback guidance for the agent's subsequent strategy adjustments, rather than a simple binary pass / fail signal. Steps S1343 and S1344 constitute an internal optimization loop, which is conducted entirely in the digital space. A digital twin replaces the real environment in bearing the risks that may arise from poor strategies, realizing a zero-risk learning paradigm of "trial and error in the virtual world, execution in reality." The loop terminates when a strategy is found that is verified as absolutely safe by the digital twin, or when a preset maximum number of iterations is reached, triggering an upper-level alarm mechanism.
[0041] As an example, the "imposing corresponding penalties in its decision-making logic" can be implemented through various mechanisms, such as: dynamically adding a large negative reward term proportional to the severity of exceeding the limit to the reward function; adding a constraint layer to the output layer of the policy network to directly limit the policy's exploration in dangerous directions; modifying the environmental state representation to include the history of exceeding the limit as part of the state input, enabling the agent to "remember" and avoid decision sequences that lead to failure; or using a model-based safety layer to project unsafe actions onto a set of verified safe actions. The determination in step S1344 that "all indicators remain within the safety boundary throughout the entire pre-test period" can be accomplished through rigorous mathematical calculations. For example, for the time series data of each safety indicator, the algorithm checks whether its maximum value (for upper limit indicators such as pressure) or minimum value (for lower limit indicators such as pH) on the entire pre-test time axis still falls within the corresponding safe range. This requires not only that the instantaneous value does not exceed the limit, but also that its changing trend will not cause the risk of exceeding the limit in the near future, thereby ensuring the long-term safety of the policy.
[0042] In one specific implementation, the "generation of a more conservative new policy" can be implemented through constrained policy optimization: after receiving a security check failure signal, the agent's policy optimization objective changes from simply maximizing the cumulative reward to maximizing the reward under the condition of satisfying security constraints. Specifically, the algorithm estimates the constraint cost function (i.e. the expected degree of insecurity) under the current policy and ensures that the expected constraint cost of the new policy is lower than a threshold at each step of the policy update. This drives the policy parameters to be updated in the direction of maintaining high performance while satisfying all security constraints, thereby systematically generating a more conservative but safe new policy.
[0043] As described in the following steps, when a pre-run result shows that all indicators remain within the safety boundary throughout the pre-run period, a safety verification pass signal is issued, and the strategy is marked as the optimal injection strategy output.
[0044] In one embodiment of the present invention, the following description can be used to further illustrate the above-mentioned step "when a certain pre-run result shows that all indicators remain within the safety boundary throughout the entire pre-run period, a safety verification pass signal is issued, and the strategy is marked as the optimal injection strategy output", which further includes: S1345: When the number of iterations of the injection strategy exceeds the preset threshold, terminate the security check loop and determine that there is no feasible solution under the current constraints; S1346: Package all rejected strategies' detailed parameters and their exceeding information to generate a diagnostic report; S1347: The diagnostic report is pushed to the engineer through the enterprise communication platform, and the engineer makes a decision and formulates a specific manual intervention plan.
[0045] It should be noted that the "preset threshold" mentioned in step S1345 is a configurable safety parameter, typically set based on computing resources and the urgency of the operation (e.g., 5-10 times). This mechanism serves as an important safety redundancy for the algorithm, preventing the system from falling into an infinite loop when no feasible solution can be found, ensuring the system remains responsive under all circumstances. This reflects the careful balance between autonomy and reliability in the method of this invention. The "human intervention plan" refers to decisions made by human experts that are outside the system's original set of automated operations. This usually means temporarily stepping out of the current optimization framework and fundamentally changing the "rules of the game," such as maintaining physical facilities (unblocking, replacing), adjusting the threshold of the safety boundary (requiring high-level authorization), or approving the execution of a "barely acceptable" strategy with a reassessed risk-benefit ratio and requiring enhanced human monitoring. This is a key manifestation of the "human" ultimately exercising decision-making power in human-machine collaborative decision-making.
[0046] As an example, the content and format of the "diagnostic report" can be diverse. For example, it can be a structured JSON or XML data file that is easy to parse by other systems; it can be an automatically generated PDF document with pictures and text, including trend charts and 3D visualization screenshots; or it can be a fault ticket that is directly pre-populated in the work order management system, including fields such as device number, problem category, and priority.
[0047] In one specific implementation, the "generating a diagnostic report" can be performed using a rule-based expert system: the system has a built-in knowledge base containing "IF" statements. <condition>THEN <conclusion>rules in the form of IF-THEN statements. For example: IF majority of the rejected strategies failed due to "exceeding wellhead pressure" AND historical data shows that the well flow rate is continuously declining, THEN conclude that "injector well IW-01 is suspected to be severely plugged", AND recommend action as "perform high-pressure water jetting operation". The system automatically executes these rules to reason over the data collected during the iteration, and incorporates the final conclusion and supporting evidence into the diagnostic report, thus providing engineers with a report that is preliminarily analyzed and has actionable insights, rather than a simple list of raw data.
[0048] According to the injection strategy, the injection equipment is controlled to inject the reaction medium into the mining area to be repaired, as described in step S140.
[0049] In an embodiment of the present application, the specific process of the above-mentioned step "controlling the injection equipment to inject the reaction medium into the mining area to be repaired according to the injection strategy" can be further described as follows: The injection strategy is compiled into standardized industrial control instructions, and an independent task instruction package containing the equipment ID, target parameters and execution time is generated for each intelligent injection well; The task instruction package is issued to the programmable logic controller of the target injection well through industrial Ethernet, and the programmable logic controller returns an acknowledgement signal after completing instruction verification; The programmable logic controller drives the connected actuators to perform precise actions according to the instruction content; During the execution process, the sensors integrated in the injection well body continuously collect actual operation data; The deviation between the actual operation data and the target value is compared through a closed-loop control algorithm, and a fine-tuning instruction is automatically issued to accurately match the target.
[0050] It should be noted that the "standardized industrial control instructions" refer to standardized command frames that comply with international general industrial communication protocols (such as OPC UA, Modbus TCP). The compilation process not only completes protocol conversion, but also needs to perform unit conversion (such as converting L / min to pulse frequency recognized by the pump controller), instruction serialization and sorting, and adding time stamp and check code, to ensure the accuracy, timeliness and reliability of the instructions during transmission and execution. The "integrated sensors" constitute the "perception" system of the injection equipment. These sensors are designed in an integrated manner and embedded in key components of the injection well, such as integrating a miniature pressure sensor in the valve body to directly measure the pressure before and after the valve core, and integrating a corrosion-resistant pH sensor in the flow channel near the injection head to monitor the pH change of the injection medium in situ. This design reduces measurement lag and improves the accuracy and real-time performance of the perception data.
[0051] As an example, the "industrial Ethernet" can be implemented based on various network topologies and protocols, such as a PROFINET network with a star topology, which has high real-time performance and determinacy; an EtherNet / IP network with a ring topology, which has link redundancy; or a 5G industrial wireless private network in a remote mining area, which uses the uRLLC (ultra-reliable low-latency communication) feature to realize wireless reliable transmission of instructions. The "closed-loop control algorithm" can take various forms according to different control objectives and object characteristics, such as a classic PID control algorithm for flow control; a model predictive control (MPC) algorithm for complex processes that require feedforward compensation (such as injection agent concentration control); or a fuzzy adaptive PID control algorithm for pH control with strong nonlinearity and large hysteresis. The system has an algorithm module library that can automatically call the most suitable control algorithm instance according to the control objective in the instruction package.
[0052] In a specific implementation, the "driving the connected actuators to perform precise actions" can be implemented through an intelligent injection well. The instruction received by the programmable logic controller (PLC) is "increase the carbon dioxide injection flow to 10.0 L / min". The PLC first solves the instruction, and its built-in PID control algorithm outputs a control signal to the frequency converter to adjust the speed of the diaphragm metering pump motor. At the same time, the PLC synchronously controls the electric regulating valve to increase its opening to a predicted position to reduce the pipeline back pressure. The data of the pump pressure sensor and flowmeter are fed back to the PLC in real time, and the PLC finally accurately stabilizes the flow at 10.0 L / min by fine-tuning the pump speed and valve position. This process is the result of the coordinated action of multiple actuators.
[0053] As described in step S150, the operating state of the injection equipment is monitored and fault prediction is performed, and maintenance instructions are generated.
[0054] In an embodiment of the present application, the specific process of "monitoring the operating state of the injection equipment and predicting faults, and generating maintenance instructions" described in step S150 can be further described as follows: Real-time operating data such as vibration, pressure, and flow of the injection equipment are continuously collected and associated with environmental data such as medium properties, and key indicators representing the health state of the equipment are obtained through feature extraction; Using the digital twin of the equipment, the current operating characteristics are compared with the health baseline in real time. When it is found that the characteristic value continuously deviates from the preset threshold, a primary abnormality alarm is triggered; Based on a long short-term memory network fault prediction model, time series data are analyzed to predict the probability of occurrence of a specific fault in the future and its remaining useful life; The prediction results are input into a decision rule engine, which automatically matches the optimal maintenance strategy according to the fault type, probability, and RUL, and generates structured instructions containing the maintenance object, type, resources, and operation guidelines. The maintenance instructions are automatically distributed to the responsible team or autonomous robots in the form of work orders, and feedback data is collected after the maintenance is completed for updating the prediction model and digital twin, achieving closed-loop learning and continuous optimization.
[0055] It should be noted that the "feature extraction" is a process of converting raw sensor data into characteristic quantities with physical meaning and sensitive to reflect the degradation state of the equipment, for example, performing fast Fourier transform (FFT) on vibration signals to extract the amplitude of a specific frequency band as a feature; calculating the moving average and standard deviation of flow data to represent flow stability; or extracting time-frequency features of non-stationary signals through wavelet transform, which are closely related to potential failure modes such as mechanical wear, fouling, and corrosion of the equipment. The "decision rule engine" is an expert system encapsulating maintenance domain knowledge. Its rules usually use "IF-THEN" logic, for example: IF fault type == "impeller corrosion" AND occurrence probability > 0.8 AND RUL < 7 days THEN maintenance type = "planned replacement" AND resources = "spare parts P-101A, tool kit TK-2" AND priority = "high", the engine will reason comprehensively according to all matching rules, and finally generate an executable, resource-specific maintenance instruction, realizing the automatic conversion from prediction information to maintenance action.
[0056] As an example, the "digital twin of the equipment" can be constructed by different modeling methods, such as: white-box model based on physical laws (e.g. establishing the fluid dynamics equation of the pump and the dynamics equation of the rotor); black-box model trained based on a large amount of historical data (e.g. deep neural network); or gray-box model combining physical principles and data-driven, which can simulate the expected normal behavior of the equipment under given working conditions, providing dynamic and personalized health baseline for anomaly detection. The "closed-loop learning and continuous optimization" can be achieved through various mechanisms, such as: using the performance recovery data of the equipment after maintenance and the real failure modes found through disassembly inspection as labeled training samples to fine-tune the LSTM prediction model regularly; summarizing new knowledge found during maintenance (such as an unexpected wear mode) as new rules and adding them to the knowledge base of the decision rule engine; or calibrating the equipment performance degradation model parameters in the digital twin according to the actual equipment degradation rate, so that it can make more accurate predictions in the future.
[0057] In a specific implementation, the "long short-term memory network-based fault prediction model" can be implemented with multivariate input: the input of the LSTM network is not a single signal, but a multivariate time series matrix, the rows of which are time steps and the columns of which are different dimensional features (such as vibration features, pressure, flow, medium pH). The architecture of the network is designed to learn the long-term dependencies and interaction patterns between these multivariate variables. Through learning from historical failure data, this model can not only predict the failure probability, but also output a residual useful life (RUL) estimate in the form of a probability distribution, thereby quantifying the uncertainty of the prediction.
