Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of soil remediation, and in particular to a leaching test apparatus for soil remediation. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the main technologies for contaminated soil remediation are divided into three categories: physical remediation, bioremediation, and chemical remediation. Among them, chemical leaching technology has become the primary method for contaminated soil remediation due to its high efficiency and wide applicability. Chemical leaching technology breaks down the binding between pollutants and soil particles through chemical reactions (such as dissolution, complexation, and redox reactions) between the leaching solution and the pollutants, thereby significantly improving the migration pathways and removal efficiency of pollutants.
[0003] Patent CN219700525U discloses a contaminated soil leaching test device, including a test chamber. The top outer wall of the test chamber has a limiting port, and a feed hopper is welded to the inner wall of the limiting port. A connecting rod is installed on the inner wall of the test chamber, and a triangular cone is installed on the outer wall of one end of the connecting rod. A shower head is bolted to the bottom outer wall of the triangular cone. A soil guide hopper is welded to the inner wall of the test chamber. A water pump is bolted to one side outer wall of the test chamber, and a water inlet pipe is welded to the bottom outer wall of the water pump. A three-way valve is installed at the water outlet of the water pump, and a water guide pipe is bolted to the outer wall of one end of the three-way valve. However, this shower spray mode is difficult to penetrate low-permeability, high-viscosity soils; furthermore, studying the diffusion and mechanisms of pollutants during the leaching process is challenging.

The other end of the vacuum liquid guide pipe 3 is connected to the vacuum pump 2, which is used to provide negative pressure to the contaminated soil.
[0040] Example 1: Refer to Figures 2-3The cylinder 1 includes a main body 12, an upper fixing plate 14, and a lower fixing plate 15. The main body 12 has openings at both ends, and the opening ends of the main body 12 are provided with cylinder rims 11 for connection with the upper fixing plate 14 and the lower fixing plate 15. The main body 12 includes a first half-cylinder 121 and a second half-cylinder 122, which are correspondingly fitted. The upper fixing plate and the lower fixing plate are detachably connected to the cylinder rim, which facilitates disassembly of the device after rinsing and maximizes the protection of the original state and integrity of the soil column. The upper fixing plate 14 includes a top cover 141 and a plate body 142, which facilitates the addition of soil column and rinsing fluid from the top of the cylinder.

The upper fixing plate 14 is fixed to the cylinder edge 11 by the first bolt 171 and the first nut 181, and the lower fixing plate 15 is fixed to the cylinder edge 11 by the second bolt 172 and the second nut 182, thereby improving the stability of the cylinder structure.
[0042] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 5 The cylinder body 1 is provided with a rubber strip 16, which includes a first rubber strip 161 and a second rubber strip 162. A first groove 123 is provided at the abutment points on both sides of the first half-cylinder 121 and the second half-cylinder 122. The first rubber strip 161 is disposed within the first groove 123 to seal both sides of the cylinder body. A second groove 124 is provided at the bottom of the main body 12, and the second rubber strip 162 is disposed within the second groove 124 to seal the bottom of the cylinder body.
[0043] Reference Figure 3 The leaching test apparatus also includes a filter bottle 4 and a vacuum gauge 5. A drainage plate 13 is installed inside the cylinder 1, comprising a filter membrane 131 and a filter element 132, used to filter soil and leachate. The bottom of the cylinder 1 is connected to a vacuum liquid guide pipe 3, and the other end of the vacuum liquid guide pipe 3 is connected to the filter bottle 4 to achieve gas-liquid separation. A piston 41 is installed on the filter bottle 4, and a vacuum pump conduit 21 is installed on the vacuum pump 2. The piston 41 is connected to the vacuum gauge 5 and the vacuum pump conduit 21. The vacuum gauge 5 is used to detect the vacuum level inside the filter bottle 4. The vacuum pump conduit 21 is used to conduct the negative pressure generated by the vacuum pump 2 into the filter bottle 4.
[0044] The implementation principle of Example 1 is as follows: A soil column is added to the drainage plate 13 inside the cylinder 1, compacted by vibration, and the surface of the soil column is leveled by tapping the cylinder 1. It is then allowed to settle overnight to allow air bubbles to escape. Leaching liquid is added above the soil column, and the vacuum pump 2 is turned on to create a vacuum at the bottom of the cylinder. Under negative pressure, the leaching liquid quickly penetrates into the soil column, rinsing it. After being filtered through the drainage plate 13, the rinsed leachate enters the filter bottle 4 through the vacuum liquid guide tube 3.
[0045] Example 2: Refer to Figures 6-7 The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the vacuum liquid guiding tube 3 is inserted into the cylinder 1 through the opening of the cylinder 1, with the bottom end of the vacuum liquid guiding tube 3 located between the contaminated and uncontaminated soil, and the drainage plate 13 located between the contaminated and uncontaminated soil. The leaching test device also includes a collection bottle 6, which is equipped with a collection tube 61. The other end of the collection tube 61 is connected to the bottom of the cylinder 1 for recovering pollutants and leaching liquid. A sandbag 7 is also provided inside the cylinder 1, located below the drainage plate 13. The sandbag 7 supports the uncontaminated soil and also filters the soil and leaching liquid.
[0046] The implementation principle of Example 2 is as follows: Uncontaminated soil is added between the sandbag 7 and the drainage board 13, and contaminated soil is added above the drainage board 13. The soil is compacted by tamping and the cylinder 1 is tapped to level the surfaces of both contaminated and uncontaminated soil. The mixture is then allowed to settle overnight to allow air bubbles to escape from the soil column. Leaching fluid is added above the contaminated soil, and the vacuum pump 2 is turned on to create a vacuum below the contaminated soil. Under negative pressure, the leaching fluid quickly penetrates the contaminated soil, rinsing it. After being filtered by the drainage board 13, the leaching fluid carrying contaminants diffuses and migrates in the uncontaminated soil. Finally, the leaching fluid passing through the uncontaminated soil enters the collection bottle 6 through the collection pipe 61.

Identical components are represented by the same reference numerals. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape, and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
