Obviously, for those skilled in the art, other drawings can also be obtained without creative labor.

[0015] Figure 1A flowchart of a leaching liquid anti-scaling intelligent early warning method suitable for high temperature and high pressure hydrological conditions is shown. Figure 2 A structural diagram of a leaching liquid anti-scaling intelligent early warning device suitable for high temperature and high pressure hydrological conditions is shown. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present application, the solutions of the present application will be further described below. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0017] The periodic sampling mode in the related art has the following problems: 1) long sampling period, unable to capture the changing chemical environment underground; 2) analysis results lag, when it is found that the scaling index exceeds the standard, the scaling phenomenon has often occurred or even intensified underground, losing the significance of early warning; 3) relying on manual decision, adjustment is not timely and accurate, and it is difficult to realize effective pre-intervention on the scaling risk. It cannot meet the needs of safe, efficient and continuous mining of deep high temperature and high pressure uranium mines, and an anti-scaling prevention and control method capable of real-time sensing, dynamic early warning and intelligent control is urgently needed.

[0018] In order to improve the technical problems that the sampling period of the periodic sampling mode in the related art is long, the changing chemical environment underground cannot be captured, the analysis results lag, and the scaling risk underground cannot be responded in time, the present embodiment provides a leaching liquid anti-scaling intelligent early warning method suitable for high temperature and high pressure hydrological conditions, as shown in Figure 1 The method comprises the following steps. Step 101, collecting, by an underground sensor array arranged in an in-situ leaching borehole of a sandstone uranium mine, underground monitoring data corresponding to leaching liquid in the in-situ leaching borehole in real time.

[0019] The in-situ leaching borehole at least comprises a liquid pumping well and a monitoring well, and the underground monitoring data at least comprises ore-bearing aquifer pressure, temperature and leaching liquid data. The leaching liquid data at least comprises calcium ion concentration, sulfate ion concentration, bicarbonate ion concentration, pH value and oxidation-reduction potential.

[0020] In some embodiments, the sandstone uranium mine can include a uranium deposit occurring in sandstone strata, and is usually mined by in-situ leaching using a non-excavation method. The in-situ leaching drilling holes can be drilling holes arranged in the mining area for injecting or extracting leaching solution, such as: liquid extraction well: extracting uranium-rich leaching solution; liquid injection well: injecting leaching agent (such as dilute sulfuric acid + oxidizing agent); monitoring well: for monitoring parameters such as water quality and water level. The downhole sensor array can be a combination of multi-parameter in-situ monitoring equipment installed in the wellbore of the drilling hole, which can measure physical and chemical parameters in real time. The leaching solution can be a solution circulating in the ore-bearing aquifer, including injected liquid and produced liquid after dissolving uranium and surrounding rock components, which is the main carrier of scaling risk. The downhole monitoring data can be in-situ collected data reflecting the state of the leaching solution and the formation environment.

[0021] In a specific application scenario, 8 in-situ leaching drilling holes can be arranged, of which 5 are liquid extraction wells, 2 are monitoring wells, and 1 is a liquid injection well. A high-temperature and high-pressure resistant downhole sensor array is installed in each well, which can integrate the following probes: pressure sensor (range: 0-10 MPa), temperature sensor (-10°C to +100°C), multi-parameter water quality probe: Ca 2+ ion selective electrode, SO4 2- sensor, HCO3 - indirect determination module, pH electrode, ORP (oxidation-reduction potential) electrode; the system automatically collects downhole monitoring data every 10 minutes through these sensors and transmits it to the ground monitoring center to monitor the state of the leaching solution in real time, and realize continuous, dynamic and in-situ sensing of the state of the leaching solution under deep high temperature and high pressure environment.

[0022] Step 102, using a preset chemical response prediction model, determining the saturation index of the target scaling mineral corresponding to the leaching solution according to the downhole monitoring data.

[0023] Among them, the target scaling mineral can be determined according to the type of precipitate in the leaching solution.

[0024] In some embodiments, the preset chemical response prediction model can include a PHREQC chemical response prediction model corrected by deep high temperature and high pressure hydrological condition experimental data, which is used for saturation index thermodynamic equilibrium calculation and introduces kinetic parameters to predict the scaling risk trend on the time scale, thereby simulating the chemical equilibrium process between ions in the solution. Saturation index (Saturation Index, SI) can be a core indicator for judging whether ions in the solution will form scaling minerals, such as Langelier Saturation Index (Langelier Saturation Index, LSI). When LSI>0, ions are easy to precipitate scaling, and the larger the value, the higher the scaling risk. When LSI≤0, ions are stable and not easy to scale.

[0025] Exemplarily, the PHREQC chemical reaction prediction model can be used to receive the real-time collected downhole monitoring data, calculate the saturation index of each target scaling mineral in the downhole monitoring data, monitor the scaling trend of each target scaling mineral, and predict the drilling scaling risk.

[0026] The target scaling mineral can be a key mineral most likely to form a precipitate in a specific in-situ leaching system, and can be dynamically determined according to the actual situation of the in-situ leaching drilling. The target scaling mineral can include carbonates such as calcite (CaCO3) and siderite (FeCO3); sulfates such as gypsum (CaSO4·2H2O) and barite (BaSO4); hydroxides such as iron hydroxide; and silicon dioxide such as amorphous SiO2. Precipitation of these minerals can block the drilling channel and affect the leaching efficiency of the uranium mine. Correspondingly, the scaling ions corresponding to the target scaling mineral can refer to ions that can participate in the formation of insoluble precipitates, such as Ca 2+ , SO 2- , Fe 3+ , etc.

[0027] Step 103: determining the over-limit ion corresponding to the target scaling mineral according to the pre-warning threshold corresponding to the saturation index of the target scaling mineral, and generating scaling pre-warning information corresponding to the over-limit ion.

[0028] In some embodiments, the scaling trend of the target scaling mineral can be determined according to the comparison result of the saturation index of the target scaling mineral and the pre-warning threshold, the scaling ion combination constituting the supersaturation state of the target scaling mineral can be identified based on the chemical composition of the target scaling mineral, the over-limit ion can be determined, and the scaling pre-warning information can be generated.

[0029] In some embodiments, when the saturation index of the target scaling mineral exceeds the corresponding pre-warning threshold, the scaling pre-warning can be triggered, the ion composition of the mineral can be automatically analyzed by the system, the scaling ion pair (such as Ca 2+ and SO4 2- corresponding to CaSO4) causing the supersaturation can be determined, and the structured scaling pre-warning information can be generated. Exemplarily, the scaling pre-warning information can include the scaling trend, the scaling mineral type, the over-limit ion, the saturation index, the pre-warning time, etc.

[0030] Optionally, the pre-warning threshold can include multiple pre-warning thresholds corresponding to different target scaling minerals, which can be used to determine the scaling trend of different scaling ions. Exemplarily, a first pre-warning threshold can represent an alarm value, and a second pre-warning threshold can represent an alarm value. For example, LSI=0.9 is the first pre-warning threshold, and LSI=0.95 is the second pre-warning threshold. When the calculated saturation index exceeds the first pre-warning threshold, the system issues a primary pre-warning signal to prompt the existence of the scaling trend. When the saturation index exceeds the second pre-warning threshold, the system issues a high-level alarm signal to confirm the scaling risk.

[0031] Step 104, generating the leaching liquid regulation instruction corresponding to the in-situ leaching borehole according to the scaling early warning information corresponding scaling early warning level and the excessive ion.

[0032] The leaching liquid regulation instruction can be used to adjust the component ratio of the injection liquid corresponding to the leaching liquid.

[0033] In some embodiments, the scaling early warning level can be determined according to the scaling trend in the scaling early warning information, and the leaching liquid regulation instruction corresponding to the in-situ leaching borehole corresponding to the scaling early warning information can be generated in combination with the excessive ion, so as to take different measures to adjust the empty space for the in-situ leaching borehole with different scaling early warning levels.

[0034] Optionally, the leaching liquid regulation instruction can be an executable process adjustment command generated by an intelligent system, a parameter change suggestion can be provided, an executable command of adjustment parameter, target value and execution mode can be included, and the executable command can be used to guide the action of the injection end device, such as the injection flow rate of the injection liquid, the component ratio of the injection liquid and the like.

[0035] Further optionally, the scaling prevention and control knowledge base corresponding to the in-situ leaching borehole can be configured, and the matching rule of the leaching liquid regulation instruction corresponding to different excessive ions or different target scaling minerals can be constructed by using the scaling prevention and control knowledge base, such as: if CaSO4SI ∈ [0.5, 1.0) is detected by the downhole sensor array and is located in the high temperature zone, the scaling early warning information and the leaching liquid regulation instruction corresponding to the scaling early warning information are generated, the leaching liquid regulation instruction can be to improve the injection flow rate and add the polyacrylic acid scale inhibitor, and the leaching liquid regulation instruction is sent to the injection end device, such as the injection pump, so that the injection pump automatically increases the flow rate, the scale inhibitor adding device starts the scale inhibitor adding, and the re-detection can be performed after 24 hours, if the detection matching SI(CaSO4) is reduced to 0.35, the risk is removed, the downhole state is sensed in real time, the early warning regulation is controlled, the closed loop intelligent control is realized, and the manual intervention hysteresis is significantly reduced.

[0036] Specifically, the scaling early warning level can be used to determine the regulation intensity, and the excessive ion can be used to determine the scaling type and guide the specific regulation strategy.

[0037] By applying the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, the embodiments can collect the downhole monitoring data corresponding to the leaching solution in each in-situ leaching borehole in real time, capture the downhole chemical environment in real time, reduce the hysteresis of leaching solution scaling analysis, detect the saturation index of each target scaling mineral in the leaching solution according to the data by using the pre-set chemical reaction prediction model, automatically identify the over-standard ions corresponding to the target scaling mineral by comparing the saturation index of each target scaling mineral with the warning threshold of each saturation index, generate a scaling warning level based on the over-standard ions, realize intelligent early warning of leaching solution scaling prevention, and generate leaching solution control instructions corresponding to different scaling warning levels, so that the injection equipment responds to the leaching solution control instructions to automatically control the component ratio of the injection liquid, thereby adjusting the injection liquid in real time when scaling warning is detected, further adjusting the saturation index of the target scaling mineral corresponding to the leaching solution, and timely reducing the scaling risk of the leaching solution.

[0038] To further illustrate the specific implementation process of the method as Figure 1 shown, optionally, step 104 can specifically include: judging the scaling risk trend of the in-situ leaching borehole according to the scaling ion pair corresponding to the over-standard ions; and generating the leaching solution control instruction of the in-situ leaching borehole based on the scaling risk trend and the scaling warning level.

[0039] In some embodiments, the scaling risk evolution direction of the in-situ leaching borehole is analyzed according to the scaling ion pair corresponding to the over-standard ions constituting the target scaling mineral and the concentration change trend thereof, the scaling risk trend of the in-situ leaching borehole is determined, the leaching solution control instruction matching the risk level is generated in combination with the current scaling warning level, and the scaling development trend is dynamically inhibited. Specifically, the scaling risk trend can be judged based on the time sequence change characteristics of the scaling ion pair leading to supersaturation, such as: rising trend, continuous growth of ion concentration, and accelerated rise of SI; stable trend, small parameter fluctuation, and high SI maintenance; and falling trend, such as SI falling after regulation. Then, the differential leaching solution control instruction is intelligently generated by comprehensively considering the trend information and the current warning level, so as to provide the leaching solution control strategy. For example, the leaching solution control instruction of the CO2 injection amount can be automatically generated and executed according to the scaling warning information, so as to reduce the scaling risk.

[0040] Optionally, after step 104, the method of the embodiments can further include: sending the leaching solution control instruction to the injection end equipment corresponding to the in-situ leaching borehole, so that the injection end equipment adjusts the component ratio of the injection liquid and / or the injection flow rate of the injection liquid.

[0041] The injection end device can refer to an automatic dosing and injection system located on the ground or wellhead, such as a multi-channel metering pump (for acid, oxidizing agent, scale inhibitor, etc.), a variable frequency injection pump (for controlling flow rate), a PLC / DCS control system, an automatic liquid mixing device, etc. The component ratio of the injection fluid can refer to the proportion of each chemical component in the injection fluid, such as the concentration of H2SO4, the CO2 partial pressure, the amount of oxidizing agent (O2 / H2O2) added, the scale inhibitor addition ratio, etc. The injection flow rate can be the volume of liquid injected into the formation per unit time (e.g., m³ / h), which affects the fluid residence time, mixing efficiency, and local concentration risk.

[0042] In some embodiments, the leaching liquid regulation instruction can be transmitted to the injection end control system associated with the in-situ leaching borehole to drive the injection end device to adjust the chemical component ratio of the injection liquid and / or the injection flow rate, thereby achieving dynamic intervention on the scaling risk of the leaching process. Specifically, the system generates the leaching liquid regulation instruction and transmits it to the injection end device of the target injection well through a communication network, automatically adjusts the component ratio of the injection liquid, such as the acidity, the oxidizing agent concentration, the scale inhibitor addition amount, etc., and the pumping flow rate, thereby inhibiting the scaling trend.

[0043] Optionally, according to the pre-warning threshold corresponding to the saturation index of the target scaling mineral, the over-standard ion corresponding to the target scaling mineral is determined, which can specifically include: by comparing the saturation index of the target scaling mineral with the multi-level pre-warning threshold, the over-standard ion corresponding to the target scaling mineral is determined, and the scaling pre-warning level corresponding to the over-standard ion is determined, which is used to reflect the scaling risk corresponding to the over-standard ion.

[0044] In some embodiments, the multi-level pre-warning threshold can be a preset critical value of the saturation index of different minerals, and a plurality of threshold values can be determined according to the risk level, such as a low-risk threshold, a medium-risk threshold, and a high-risk threshold, which are used to distinguish the severity of the scaling risk. The over-standard ion can be an ion in the target scaling mineral whose saturation index exceeds the corresponding pre-warning threshold, such as calcium ions and carbonate ions corresponding to calcium carbonate. If the saturation index of these two ions exceeds the threshold, they are over-standard ions. The scaling pre-warning level can be a pre-warning level divided according to the over-standard amplitude of the saturation index of the over-standard ion (such as low, medium, high, and extremely high), which directly reflects the probability and degree of harm of scaling.

[0045] For example, for calcium carbonate, if the saturation index of calcium carbonate is 0.65, which is greater than the medium-risk threshold of 0.5 and does not reach the high-risk threshold of 0.8, the over-standard ion is determined to be calcium ions and carbonate ions, and the pre-warning level is a medium-risk level. If the saturation index of calcium sulfate is 0.42, which is greater than the low-risk threshold of 0.3 and does not reach the medium-risk threshold of 0.6, the over-standard ion is determined to be calcium ions and sulfate ions, and the pre-warning level is a low-risk level.

[0046] By comparing the saturation index of the target scaling mineral with the preset multi-level early warning threshold, the scaling early warning level corresponding to the mineral is determined, and the key scaling ion pair leading to supersaturation is identified based on the chemical composition, to generate comprehensive scaling early warning information including the risk level, mineral type and dominant ion, thereby providing a decision basis for subsequent precise regulation.

[0047] Optionally, the method of the embodiment can further include: obtaining historical monitoring data corresponding to the leaching solution in the in-situ leaching borehole of the sandstone uranium mine; predicting the variation trend of the saturation index of the target scaling mineral by using a trend extrapolation algorithm based on the historical monitoring data; and predicting the over-limit ion corresponding to the target scaling mineral according to the variation trend of the saturation index, to generate early warning information corresponding to the over-limit ion.

[0048] In some embodiments, the historical monitoring data can include historical monitoring data collected by a downhole sensor array for a period of time, and then a mathematical model is constructed by using a trend extrapolation algorithm (such as linear extrapolation, exponential smoothing, regression analysis, etc.), the variation law of the historical monitoring data is analyzed, and the variation trend of the saturation index of the target scaling mineral in the in-situ leaching borehole in the future period of time is calculated, wherein the early warning information can be a warning issued in advance by a preset period of time (such as 4 hours) to avoid scaling formation.

[0049] For example, the downhole monitoring data of the No. 1 in-situ leaching borehole of the sandstone uranium mine in the past 30 days is selected, the effective data is screened after data preprocessing, and the screened data is used as the historical monitoring data for historical trend analysis to analyze the variation trend of the saturation index of the target scaling mineral. For example, in the past 30 days, the saturation index of calcium carbonate gradually rises from 0.32 to 0.65, with a daily average increase of 0.011, and the increase accelerates in the past 3 days (daily average of 0.015). According to the prediction of the variation trend of the saturation index of calcium carbonate in the next 24 hours based on the exponential smoothing method, if it is predicted that the index will continue to rise, it is predicted that the index will reach 0.72 (close to the high-risk threshold 0.8) after 12 hours and 0.78 after 24 hours. According to the composition of calcium carbonate (calcium ion + carbonate ion) and the predicted saturation index, the corresponding early warning information is generated, and the generated early warning information can be described as follows: it is predicted that the saturation index of calcium carbonate corresponding to the calcium ion and carbonate ion in the No. 1 in-situ leaching borehole will rise to 0.72 (below the high-risk threshold 0.8) in the next 12 hours and to 0.78 after 24 hours; the current is not over-limit, but the scaling risk is rising rapidly, and the composition of the injected liquid needs to be adjusted in advance to inhibit the increase of ion concentration.

[0050] Compared with the method of triggering early warning after the saturation index exceeds the standard, the embodiment can predict the scaling risk in advance by early warning, leaving enough buffer time for regulation, and subsequently avoiding further increase of the calcium carbonate saturation index by reducing the concentration of calcium ion supplier in the injection fluid, fine-tuning the pH value, etc., thereby avoiding scaling.

[0051] In some embodiments, an intelligent early warning system for leaching liquid scaling prevention can be constructed, which at least includes a downhole sensor array, a data acquisition and transmission unit, a central processing server, a human-computer interaction interface, and an injection end regulation execution mechanism. The downhole sensor array can be used to collect key chemical parameters of the leaching liquid in real time. The data acquisition and transmission unit can be used to receive and transmit sensor data. The central processing server can be internally provided with a PHREQC chemical reaction prediction model, which can be used to perform saturation index calculation and risk warning. The human-computer interaction interface can be used to display warning information and receive instructions. The central processing server sends regulation instructions to the regulation execution mechanism according to the warning results, forming a closed-loop control.

[0052] In a specific application scenario, for example, a certain sandstone uranium mine has two groups of 5-point type in-situ leaching drilling units, a total of 6 extraction and 8 injection holes. Monitoring devices are arranged at the injection holes to prevent scaling and early warning, and the specific early warning steps are as follows: S1. During the test period, 6 monitoring points were set up to collect the pressure, temperature, calcium ion concentration, sulfate ion concentration, bicarbonate ion concentration, pH value, and oxidation-reduction potential of the ore-bearing aquifer in real time, and the monitoring period lasted for 30 days; S2. The real-time collected key chemical parameters and downhole temperature and pressure data are input into the pre-installed PHREQC chemical reaction prediction model to calculate the current leaching liquid saturation index for calcium sulfate and calcium carbonate in real time; S3. Three gear ranges of warning value range are set: when LSI < 0, it is unsaturated; when LSI = 0, the solution is saturated; and when LSI > 0, it is supersaturated. LSI = 0.9 is set as the early warning value, and LSI = 0.95 is set as the alarm value. When the calculated saturation index exceeds the early warning threshold, the system sends a primary early warning signal, indicating that there is a scaling trend; when the saturation index exceeds the alarm threshold, the system sends a high-level alarm signal, confirming the scaling risk; S4. During the system operation, if the LSI of the injection hole Z2 reaches the early warning value of 0.92 on the 21st day of operation, the system automatically adjusts the carbon dioxide injection amount in the injection fluid from 150 mg / L to 200 mg / L, increases the pH of the injection hole, and increases the saturation solubility of calcium sulfate, thereby reducing the LSI index and preventing scaling. In this way, the system forms a closed-loop control.

[0053] In this way.

[0054] Compared with related technologies, this embodiment calculates the saturation index based on the PHREQC chemical reaction prediction model calibrated for high temperature and high pressure conditions. It fully considers the influence of the special deep environment on chemical equilibrium, and the prediction results are far more accurate and reliable than the estimation based on the normal temperature and pressure model, with high early warning precision. Furthermore, it sends the leachate control command to the injection end equipment corresponding to the leaching borehole, enabling the injection end equipment to adjust the component ratio and / or injection flow rate of the injection fluid. This transforms manual experience-based decision-making into data-driven intelligent decision-making and enables closed-loop control linked with the injection system, reducing manual intervention, improving production efficiency and stability, and conforming to the concept of building a "digital mine" and a "transparent mine," thereby enhancing the level of production automation and intelligence. It can also predict scaling risks in advance through ultra-early warnings, leaving sufficient buffer time for regulation and control.
