Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of solid waste treatment technology, specifically to a leachate control system for landfills of low-level radioactive associated mineral solid waste. Background Technology

[0002] In today's environmental protection and resource management field, landfilling of solid waste is a common disposal method. In particular, the landfilling of low-level radioactive associated mineral solid waste places extremely high demands on leachate management during the landfilling process due to its special radioactive and chemical properties.

[0003] Currently, leachate management in solid waste landfilling, especially in the landfilling of low-level radioactive associated minerals, mainly relies on traditional technologies and methods. Existing technologies often employ manual, periodic inspections and sampling analysis. Staff need to regularly visit various monitoring points at the landfill to collect leachate samples and bring them back to the laboratory for analysis to assess key indicators such as leachate composition and concentration. This manual approach has the following drawbacks:

[0004] (1) Low management efficiency. Due to the large area of ​​the landfill and the wide distribution of monitoring points, manual inspection and sampling require a lot of time and manpower. Moreover, the frequency of regular sampling is limited, making it difficult to accurately grasp the real-time changes in leachate. This results in the inability to detect and take effective countermeasures in a timely manner when abnormal changes occur in leachate quality or quantity, which may pose a potential pollution risk to the surrounding environment.

[0005] (2) Existing technologies cannot achieve real-time monitoring of leachate. Current monitoring methods are mainly based on discrete sampling and analysis, relying on manual / timed sampling, resulting in "data gaps during sampling intervals." They cannot capture real-time risks such as sudden leaks and abnormal concentration fluctuations, nor can they obtain continuous dynamic information about leachate in landfills. This makes it difficult for managers to accurately understand the generation, migration, and transformation patterns of leachate, which is not conducive to formulating scientific and reasonable leachate treatment and management plans.

[0036] Reference Figures 1 to 2 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a leachate management system for a landfill of low-level radioactive associated mineral solid waste, including a leachate treatment unit 1 and a control cabinet 2; the leachate treatment unit 1 includes a leachate well 11 and a level detector 12, which is installed in the leachate well 11 and is used to detect the level of leachate in the leachate well 11; the first input terminal of the control cabinet 2 is electrically connected to the level detector 12.

[0037] For example, the control cabinet 12 is a cabinet that integrates a controller, which can analyze data from various detectors and perform corresponding control processing on the signals of the suction pump 13 and various solenoid valves.

[0038] In this embodiment, the level detector 12 collects the liquid level height in the well in real time and converts it into an electrical signal, which is then transmitted to the control cabinet 2. The control cabinet 2 triggers an alarm when the liquid level is greater than or equal to a preset liquid level threshold. The level detector 12 enables continuous automated monitoring of the leachate level, avoiding the radiation risks of manual inspections; and the preset liquid level threshold allows for timely activation of emergency measures to prevent the overflow of radioactive leachate and environmental pollution.

[0039] Reference Figures 1 to 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the leachate treatment unit 1 includes a suction pump 13 and a first delivery pipe. The suction pump 13 is located in the leachate well 11. The controlled end of the suction pump 13 is electrically connected to the first control end of the control cabinet 2. One end of the first delivery pipe is connected to the discharge end of the suction pump 13.

[0040] In this embodiment, when the liquid level is greater than or equal to a preset liquid level threshold, the control cabinet 2 sends a start signal to the suction pump 13 to pump the leachate into the first delivery pipe, and the leachate flows to the wastewater treatment plant through the first delivery pipe; the pump automatically stops when the liquid level is less than or equal to the preset liquid level threshold. By establishing a closed-loop control from liquid level to pumping, the timely transfer of leachate is ensured.

[0041] Reference Figures 1 to 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the leachate treatment unit 1 includes a first solenoid valve 14, which is disposed on the first delivery pipe, and the controlled end of the first solenoid valve 14 is electrically connected to the second control end of the control cabinet 2.

[0042] In this embodiment, when the suction pump 13 starts, the control cabinet 2 simultaneously opens the first solenoid valve 14; if the suction pump 13 malfunctions or the radioactivity exceeds the standard, the control cabinet 2 immediately closes the first solenoid valve 14 to cut off the first delivery pipe. In this way, the linkage between the first solenoid valve 14 and the suction pump 13 prevents accidental discharge, and in an emergency, it can physically isolate the radioactive leachate to avoid the spread of pollution.

[0043] Reference Figures 1 to 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the leachate treatment unit 1 includes a first radioactive material detector 15, which is disposed in the leachate well 11, and the output terminal of the first radioactive material detector 15 is electrically connected to the second input terminal of the control cabinet 2.

[0044] For example, the first radioactive material detector 15 can be an α or β radioactive detector, etc.

[0045] In this embodiment, the first radioactive material detector 15 detects the radioactivity of alpha and beta particles in the leachate and feeds back the radioactivity of alpha and beta particles to the control cabinet 2. The control cabinet 2 compares the radioactivity of alpha and beta particles with national standard limits. If the limits are exceeded, the suction pump 13 and the first solenoid valve 14 are shut down. This can prevent high-risk leachate from entering the treatment process at the source.

[0046] Reference Figures 1 to 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the leachate treatment unit 1 includes a second radioactive material detector 16, which is disposed in the leachate well 11, and the output terminal of the second radioactive material detector 16 is electrically connected to the third input terminal of the control cabinet 2.

[0047] For example, the second radioactive material detector 16 can be a gamma-ray radioactive detector, etc.

[0048] In this embodiment, the second radioactive material detector 16 detects gamma rays (e.g., in the leachate) in the leachate. 238 U、 232 Th、 226 The system measures the radioactivity of γ-rays (such as Ra) and feeds back the radioactivity of γ-rays to control cabinet 2. Control cabinet 2 compares the radioactivity of γ-rays with the national standard limit. If the limit is exceeded, the suction pump 13 and the first solenoid valve 14 are shut down. This prevents high-risk leachate from entering the treatment process at the source.

[0049] Reference Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the leachate management system includes a cloud server 3, which is communicatively connected to the control cabinet 2.

[0050] In this embodiment, control cabinet 2 uploads liquid level and radioactivity data to cloud server 3 in real time, generating dynamic curves. This allows managers to remotely view or adjust control parameters via a web-based mobile device. This unattended operation and maintenance reduces labor costs and radiation exposure; it also enables historical data tracing and pollution spread simulation and prediction, enhancing long-term monitoring capabilities.

[0051] It should be noted that mobile devices can be computers, mobile phones, etc.

[0052] Reference Figures 1 to 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the leachate control system includes a second delivery pipe 4 and a second solenoid valve 5. One end of the second delivery pipe 4 is connected to the first delivery pipe, and the second solenoid valve 5 is disposed on the second delivery pipe 4. The controlled end of the second solenoid valve 5 is electrically connected to the third control end of the control cabinet 2.

[0053] In this embodiment, after the pumping truck is connected to the second delivery pipe 4, the control cabinet 2 controls the suction pump 13 and the second solenoid valve 5 to start. The suction pump 13 pumps the leachate into the first delivery pipe, and then through the second delivery pipe 4 to the pumping truck, thus transferring the leachate.

[0054] Reference Figures 1 to 2As shown, in some embodiments, the leachate control system includes a monitoring camera 6, which is mounted around the second solenoid valve 5, and the output of the monitoring camera 6 is electrically connected to the fourth input of the control cabinet 2.

[0055] In this embodiment, when the water pump truck is connected to the second delivery pipe 4, the monitoring camera 6 captures the image and automatically archives it, thereby assisting in post-event traceability analysis.

[0056] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
