[0002] Unlike radioactive hazardous waste (LDW), non-radioactive hazardous waste, although generated during nuclear power plant operations, is non-radioactive and can be collected, stored, transported, and disposed of like general hazardous waste. Nuclear power plant operations generate large quantities of hazardous waste, and if not promptly removed, these wastes pose a risk to the stable operation of the power plant. Hazardous waste is continuously generated during power plant operations, and the frequent entry and exit procedures for evidence and the storage of hazardous waste are time-consuming and laborious. Therefore, most hazardous waste generated on-site is often stored on-site. If pollutants are improperly stored and leak, they pose a threat to the safety of workers and seriously pollute the environment. Nuclear power plants need to control the safety of hazardous waste from the source, so corresponding temporary storage devices for hazardous waste need to be set up at the hazardous waste generation site or the nuclear power plant control area. However, existing temporary storage devices have many defects: 1: Workers are required to enter the temporary storage device to transport the hazardous waste to a designated location, or use a forklift to move the hazardous waste to a designated location. Regardless of the operation, workers need to enter the temporary storage device, which increases safety risks; 2: Existing temporary storage devices cannot automatically weigh hazardous waste, cannot store liquids flowing out of hazardous waste, cannot monitor radiation doses and detect air quality; 3: Existing temporary storage devices cannot perform ventilation and air purification, which easily causes toxic and harmful gases to escape.

[0037] Working principle: A temporary storage warehouse for hazardous waste from a nuclear power plant. When in use, the staff uses a forklift to fork the hazardous waste from the nuclear power plant to the door of the storage warehouse, and then uses the camera A33 to perform face recognition. When the recognition is successful, the controller in the control box 3 controls the motor on the third drive device 403 to energize, thereby driving the third screw rod 401 to rotate, realizing the automatic opening of the electric door 2, and then the control button 31 on the control box 3 controls the motors on the first drive device 1101 and the second drive device 1201 and the electric telescopic rod 13 to work respectively. The first The motor on the driving device 1101 drives the first screw rod 1103 to rotate around the bearing, so that the first slider 1102 on the first screw rod 1103 moves in the first slide groove, thereby driving the second slider movable frame 12 to move in the Y direction on the top of the first slider movable frame 11, and the motor on the second driving device 1201 drives the second screw rod 1202 to rotate around the bearing, so that the second slider 1203 on the second screw rod 1202 moves in the second slide groove, thereby driving the electric telescopic rod 13 to move on the X axis, and the electric telescopic rod 13 drives The hook 14 moves up and down, thereby driving the hook 14 to move on the Y axis, thereby moving the hook 14 at the bottom of the electric telescopic rod 13 to the door. The entire operation can be performed before the electric door 2 is opened. The camera B15 and the display screen 32 can be connected to see the entire interior of the storage warehouse 1. When the hook 14 reaches the designated position, the electric door 2 is also opened. Then the forklift forks the nuclear power plant hazardous waste into the storage warehouse 1, and then hangs the hook 14 on the nuclear power plant hazardous waste packaging bag. The electric telescopic rod 13 is retracted upward to lift the nuclear power plant hazardous waste to a suitable position. Height, then the forklift moves out of the storage warehouse 1, closes the electric door 2, and observes the vacant position in the storage warehouse 1 through the display screen 32. Then, the control button 31 is used to control the hook 14 to realize the movement of the X, Y and Z axes, so as to place the nuclear power plant hazardous waste into the appropriate position of the hazardous waste placement plate 5. The bottom of the hazardous waste placement plate 5 uses a pressure sensor to detect the gravity after the nuclear power plant hazardous waste is placed, so as to calculate the weight of the nuclear power plant hazardous waste and display it on the display screen 32. The display screen 32 shows the gravity before and after the placement, so the weight of the stored waste can be obtained by subtracting the two numbers;

[0038] After the hazardous waste from the nuclear power plant is stored, the remaining liquid is diverted through the diversion trough 51 and then transported to the waste liquid recovery tank 52 for storage through the liquid delivery pipe 53; the radiation dose detection sensor 16 is used to monitor the radiation dose in the warehouse, and an alarm signal is issued when the dose exceeds the threshold; the gas monitoring sensor 17 is used to monitor the changes in the air in the temporary storage warehouse in real time, and monitor and alarm for sudden changes in the concentration of toxic and harmful gases; all alarms are realized through the alarm 7, and the display screen 32 also displays the specific detection value;

[0039] The storage warehouse 1 is provided with a ventilation duct 8, and a fan is provided in the ventilation duct 8 to realize the circulation of air in the storage warehouse 1. An air purification device 10 is also installed, and a dust collector is provided inside the air purification device 10 to adsorb and remove dust from the gas generated in the warehouse when the air is updated to prevent the escape of toxic and harmful gases.

[0040] The above embodiments merely represent implementation methods of the present invention. While the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent. It should be noted that a person skilled in the art would be able to make numerous variations and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and all such variations and improvements fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
