[0003] The construction of underground nuclear facility engineering is of great significance to the sustainable and healthy development of the nuclear industry. In underground nuclear facility engineering, the most important way for harmful radionuclides to return to the human environment is through the migration and diffusion of groundwater.

The type of chemical reaction and the degree of influence on radionuclide migration mainly depend on the chemical characteristics of groundwater. Therefore, hydrogeochemical information is indispensable in the selection of underground nuclear facility sites and long-term performance safety evaluation. For some abnormal physical and chemical parameters, including temperature, electrical conductivity, pH value, oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), dissolved oxygen (DO), and other parameters, in-situ monitoring must be carried out to obtain reliable data.

[0004] In addition, with the development of metal mineral resources in recent years, the construction of underground oil storage facilities and other underground engineering development have also put forward unprecedented urgent demands for long-term, in-situ monitoring of the chemical environment of deep rock fissure groundwater.

[0017] At present, the monitoring and analysis of groundwater in borehole fissures includes manual sampling monitoring, simple online sensor monitoring, and fixed-point monitoring, etc. conventional technical means, but the above technical means mainly have the following limitations and deficiencies: the manual sampling monitoring method has the disadvantages of poor timeliness, high cost, and easy sample pollution; the simple online sensor monitoring method has the disadvantages of poor adaptability, limited monitoring parameters, no guarantee for long-term stability, and difficult sampling, etc.; the existing fixed-point monitoring device is usually used for long-term monitoring of water quality of surface wellbores or large-diameter boreholes, and usually has a large volume and a complex structure, and cannot be directly applied to narrow roadway boreholes with limited space, humid environment, and mine pressure influence. Therefore, there is currently no method that can realize efficient, accurate, long-term and adaptable monitoring and analysis of groundwater in borehole fissures.

[0018] In view of the above problems, the embodiments of the present application provide a device for analyzing and monitoring the chemical properties of groundwater in the water-conducting fissures of a roadway borehole, Figure 1 is a structural schematic diagram of the device for analyzing and monitoring the chemical properties of groundwater in the water-conducting fissures of a roadway borehole provided by the embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 1As shown, the device 100 includes a sealing assembly 10, a pressure monitoring assembly 20, a pipeline 30, a power component 40, a pipeline flow path control assembly 50, and an analysis monitoring assembly 60.

The first sealing member 11, the second sealing member 12, and the third sealing member 13 are fixed to the outside of the hollow pipe member 14 and abut against the hole wall of the borehole 101, so as to seal the fractures in the borehole 101 into a plurality of monitoring sections 102. This facilitates the independent monitoring of the water-conducting fractures 103 and the groundwater in the fractures, so as to make the monitoring results scientific and effective.

[0021] In some embodiments, the first packer 11, the second packer 12 and the third packer 13 are arranged to be deformable, for example, to be inflated by the pipeline 30 in a hydraulic or pneumatic manner, so as to abut against the borehole wall of the borehole 101, to facilitate adjustment of the packers in the limited space of the borehole 101 after the packer assembly 10 is arranged, and to ensure the reliability of the packer.

[0022] In some embodiments, the pipeline 30 is arranged to extend partially inside the hollow tube 14 and into the monitoring sections 102, so as to provide sufficient extension space for the pipeline 30, while avoiding direct exposure of the pipeline 30 to the borehole environment, to prolong the service life of the pipeline 30.

[0023] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 1, the monitoring sections 102 are arranged such that the water conducting fracture 103 passes through one of the monitoring sections 102, and the other monitoring sections 102 are arranged on both sides of the water conducting fracture 103, and a part of the pipeline 30 is used to fluidly connect the monitoring sections 102 with the pressure monitoring assembly 20, to monitor the pressure on both sides of the water conducting fracture 103, respectively, to determine the sealing effect. Figure 1

[0024] In some embodiments, the first packer 11 is arranged to reduce the water pressure on both ends of the second packer 12, to better protect the monitoring sections 102.

[0025] In some embodiments, the first packer 11 is arranged to withstand a maximum formation pressure greater than or equal to 100 bar, to ensure long-term stability of the monitoring sections 102.

[0026] In some embodiments, the hollow tube 14 is externally coated with an anticorrosive material (for example, a perfluoroalkoxy alkane coating), to prevent corrosion of the hollow tube 14, to maintain the stability of the connection between the first packer 11, the second packer 12 and the third packer 13, and to avoid affecting the mutual independence of the monitoring sections 102.

[0027] In some embodiments, the hollow tube 14 can be provided with a sealing structure (for example, an O-ring) at both ends, to prevent impurities from entering and damaging the pipeline 30.

[0028] In some embodiments, the pressure monitoring assembly 20 includes a plurality of pressure display assemblies 21 and a support and fixing assembly 22, the pressure display assemblies 21 are arranged on the support and fixing assembly 22 and are arranged to monitor the pressure of the monitoring sections 102 and display the pressure; the pipeline 30 is arranged to be fixedly connected with the support and fixing assembly 22, to monitor the internal pressure of the monitoring sections 102, the first packer 11, the second packer 12 and the third packer 13, to determine the monitoring state.​

[0029] In some embodiments, the pipeline 30 can be connected to the support fixing assembly 22 by a stainless steel sleeve to avoid pipeline 30 bending and wear.

[0030] In some embodiments, the pressure display assembly 21 includes a pressure sensor 211 and a pressure gauge 212, and the support fixing assembly 22 includes a support 221 and a fixing member 222.

The pressure gauge 212 is arranged to be fixed to one end of the support 221, and the pressure sensor 211 is arranged to be fixed to the other end of the support 221 by the fixing member 222. The pipeline 30 is arranged in the support 221. By arranging the pressure sensor 211 and the pressure gauge 212 at both ends of the support 221 respectively, the support 221 and the fixing member 222 are more stable.

[0031] In some embodiments, the support 221 can be arranged to connect the lower end to the fixing member 222 to better fix the relative positions of the pressure sensor 211 and the pressure gauge 212.

[0032] In some embodiments, the pressure gauge 212 can be mechanical to facilitate reading data at any time and better adapt to the deep environment of the roadway.

[0033] In some embodiments, the pipeline 30 is arranged to pass through the hollow pipe 14 and directly communicate with the underground water or gas in the monitoring section 102, so that the pressure gauge 212 connected to the pipeline 30 can directly and accurately obtain the pressure data in the monitoring section 102.

[0034] In some embodiments, the support 221 is a hollow support, so that the pressure monitored by the pressure sensor 211 is consistent with the pressure displayed by the pressure gauge 212, to more accurately monitor the pressure data in the monitoring sections 102.

[0035] In some embodiments, the pipeline 30 can be arranged to include a pressure monitoring pipeline 31 and a flow path control pipeline 32. The pressure monitoring pipeline 31 is used to communicate the monitoring section 102 with the pressure monitoring assembly 20 to realize pressure monitoring of the monitoring section 102. The flow path control pipeline 32 is used to communicate the monitoring section 102 with the analysis monitoring assembly 60 to transport the gas or underground water in the monitoring section 102 to the analysis monitoring assembly 60 for analysis. In this way, the pipelines with different functions can be avoided to be confused, and the control difficulty is reduced.

[0036] In some embodiments, a control valve can be arranged between the pressure monitoring pipeline 31 and the pressure gauge 212 to control the flow of the underground water or gas in the monitoring section 102. Before starting the monitoring, the control valve can be closed and the pressure gauge 212 can be calibrated.

[0037] In some embodiments, the pipeline flow path control assembly 50 comprises a plurality of pipeline flow path controls 51, each of which is arranged to correspond to a plurality of monitoring sections 102 to control the opening and closing of the pipeline 30 in fluid communication with the monitoring sections 102, so as to control the flow direction of the groundwater during the analysis monitoring process.

[0038] In some embodiments, at least one pipeline flow path control 51 is arranged on each flow path control pipeline 32, so as to control each branch individually.

[0039] In some embodiments, a protective box 70 is further included, and the pipeline flow path control assembly 50, the pressure monitoring assembly 20, and the analysis monitoring assembly 60 are arranged in the protective box 70 to reduce the loss of the device and enable long-term stable operation.

[0040] In some embodiments, a valve protection bracket can be arranged in the protective box 70 to protect the valve between the pipeline 30 and the pressure gauge 212, and the valve protection bracket is fixed to the protective box 70 by bolts, so that the pressure monitoring assembly 20 is fixed as a whole relative to the protective box 70, thereby enhancing the stability of the device.

[0041] In some embodiments, the analysis monitoring assembly 60 can be fixed to the protective box 70 by screws to ensure that each component works independently and is protected from external interference.

[0042] In some embodiments, the flow path control pipeline 32 can comprise a first liquid path 321 and a second liquid path 322, the first liquid path 321 being used to transport the groundwater in the monitoring section 102 through which the water-conducting fracture 103 passes to the analysis monitoring assembly 60, and the second liquid path 322 being used to transport the analyzed groundwater from the analysis monitoring assembly 60 back to the monitoring section 102 through which the water-conducting fracture 103 passes, so as to realize the circulation of the groundwater.

[0043] In some embodiments, during the monitoring process, the pipeline flow path control on the first liquid path 321 can be opened to allow the groundwater in the monitoring section 102 to flow into the analysis monitoring assembly 60 through the first liquid path 321, and the pipeline flow path control on the second liquid path 322 can be opened to allow the analyzed groundwater in the analysis monitoring assembly 60 to flow back to the monitoring section 102 through the second liquid path 322; and at the same time, the pipeline flow path controls on the other pipelines in the flow path control pipeline 32 are closed, and the flow meter and the power member 40 are opened, so as to complete the circulation of the groundwater.

[0044] In some embodiments, the analysis monitoring assembly 60 is arranged to have a plurality of sensors to obtain and analyze the temperature, water pressure, pH, conductivity, oxidation-reduction potential, dissolved oxygen, and other parameters of the water-conducting fracture 103, and the plurality of sensors are arranged to work independently, so that the replacement and calibration of a sensor during the monitoring process will not affect the normal monitoring of other sensors.

[0045] In some embodiments, the multiple sensors in the analysis and monitoring component 60 can be water chemistry sensors, including multiple probes for temperature, water pressure, pH, conductivity, redox potential, dissolved oxygen, etc., which can be removed or added as needed; the water chemistry sensors can be connected to a data acquisition unit, which is configured to have internal storage function, export monitoring data, and also transmit data remotely via the Beidou system; the data acquisition unit is connected to a display for convenient real-time viewing of monitoring data.

[0046] In some embodiments, during the monitoring process, the water circulation rate can be monitored in real time by a flow meter. To ensure that the groundwater in the monitoring section 102 through which the water-conducting fracture 103 passes is in a laminar flow state, the flow rate of pipeline 30 can be set to 300~400 mL / min. The analysis and monitoring component 60 can control the flow rate of pipeline 30 through the power component 40.

[0047] In some embodiments, the pipeline 30 may be made of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) material to give the pipeline 30 corrosion resistance and prevent chemical adsorption.

[0048] In some embodiments, the packer assembly 10 may be modularly designed, with the packer size determined accordingly based on the borehole size, so that the division of the monitoring section is more in line with the specific conditions of the borehole and ensures the effectiveness of the packer.

[0049] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, a tracer delivery component 80 may also be provided inside the borehole 101 for delivering tracers into the monitoring section 102 (for example, injecting the tracer into the monitoring section 102 through a high-pressure injection pump), and the analysis and monitoring component 60 monitors the diffusion of the tracer in real time to facilitate in-situ tracer test research.

[0050] Another embodiment of this application provides a method for analyzing and monitoring the chemical properties of groundwater in water-conducting fractures in roadway boreholes, which employs the aforementioned apparatus and includes the following steps: S10: Arranging boreholes 101, and after the boreholes 101 are arranged, placing the sealing assembly 10 into the boreholes 101; S20: Analyzing and monitoring the chemical properties of groundwater in the fractures within the boreholes 101 using the analysis and monitoring assembly 60 in the apparatus.

[0051] The method provided in this application for analyzing and monitoring the chemical properties of groundwater in water-conducting fissures in tunnel boreholes, due to the use of the aforementioned device, can ensure the accuracy and validity of the monitoring data, so as to fully reflect the chemical properties of groundwater in water-conducting fissures in tunnel borehole 101. Thus, the hydrochemical environment of tunnel borehole 101 can be comprehensively evaluated based on the chemical property data, so as to assist in the site selection and long-term performance safety evaluation of underground nuclear facilities.

[0052] In some embodiments, the step S10 further comprises the following steps: S11, determining the position of the drill hole 101; S12, determining the type and size of the drill hole 101 according to the position, so that the drill hole 101 matches the water flowing fracture 103.

[0053] In some embodiments, in the step S12, if the water flowing fracture 103 of the monitoring section 102 has a steep dip angle, a horizontal drill hole is used; if the water flowing fracture 103 of the monitoring section 102 has a gentle dip angle, a downward inclined drill hole is used, and the drill hole is approximately perpendicular to the fracture; if the fracture is upwardly inclined, the monitoring condition is not met.

[0054] In some embodiments, in the step S11, the trend, tendency, dip angle, width, and distance from the wall of the water flowing fracture 103 can be determined, and the length of the monitoring section 102 from the wall is set to be greater than 3 times the width of the chamber, and the complete surrounding rock on both sides of the monitoring section 102 is not less than 5m, so as to avoid the influence of the release of ground stress.

[0055] In some embodiments, the step S10 further comprises the following steps: S13, determining the hollow pipe 14 according to the type and size of the drill hole 101; S14, installing the pipeline 30 in the hollow pipe 14; S15, sealing the fracture in the drill hole 101 into multiple monitoring sections 102. By installing the pipeline 30 in the hollow pipe 14, it is helpful to safely send the pipeline 30 into the drill hole 101, and the prior installation of the sealing assembly 10 and the pipeline 30 helps the subsequent installation and adjustment of the external parts of the drill hole 101, avoids the change of the internal setting of the drill hole 101, and improves the installation efficiency.

[0056] In some embodiments, after the pipeline 30 is installed in the hollow pipe 14 in the step S15, the third sealing part 13 and the hollow pipe 14 with the pipeline 30 installed therein can be installed in a predetermined order on the side of the water flowing fracture 103 away from the ground, and the third sealing part 13 is expanded by water pressure or pneumatic method through the pipeline 30, so as to achieve the sealing of one end of the monitoring section. During the expansion process, the reading of the pressure gauge 212 needs to be stable at about 100bar; after the pressure is stable, the second sealing part 12 and the first sealing part 11 are installed in the same way, that is, the sealing parts are installed in the order from the side away from the ground to the side close to the ground, which is helpful to the stable air pressure in the subsequent installation process.

[0057] In some embodiments, in the step S20, it is determined that the sealing assembly 10 is in good operation, so that the pressure level in the multiple monitoring sections 102 is normal.

[0058] In some embodiments, in the step S20, if the pressure level in the multiple monitoring sections 102 is normal, it is determined that the sealing assembly 10 is in good operation. Figure 1As shown, after the packer assembly 10 is placed into the borehole 101 and the components outside the borehole 101 are installed, the pipeline flow control member 51 on the flow path control pipeline 32 is closed, the communication between the monitoring section 102 and the analysis monitoring assembly 60 is cut off, and the control valve between the pressure monitoring pipeline 31 and the pressure gauge 212 is opened. According to the pressure data of the pressure gauge, it is determined whether the packer assembly 10 is in good operating condition. If there is a significant water head difference between the monitoring section passing through the water conducting fracture 103 and the monitoring sections on both sides thereof and the data is relatively stable, it indicates that the determination and division of the monitoring section 102 are effective, otherwise the monitoring sections on both sides of the water conducting fracture 103 need to be adjusted to make the data stable, so that the subsequent monitoring data is effective.

[0059] In some embodiments, in the step S20, according to the type of the sensor in the analysis monitoring assembly 60, the calibration period of the sensor is determined, so that the monitoring data obtained by different kinds of sensors is effective.

[0060] In some embodiments, the calibration period of the conductivity sensor is not more than 6 months, the calibration period of the pH sensor is not more than 1 month, the calibration period of the oxidation-reduction potential sensor is not more than 3 months, and the calibration period of the dissolved oxygen sensor is not more than 3 months.

[0061] For the embodiments of the present application, it also needs to be explained that, in the case of no conflict, the embodiments and the features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other to obtain new embodiments.

[0062] The above is only a specific implementation manner of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto, and the protection scope of the present application should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
