1 TARIFF THE USE OF WATERS FROM TUNNEL EXCAVATIONS IN FISH PRODUCTION A SYSTEM FOR EVALUATION TECHNICAL AREA 5 The invention enables the construction of roads, railways, and other infrastructure in mountainous and water-permeable terrain. tunnels constructed as part of dam, hydroelectric power plant and similar infrastructure projects The groundwater that naturally emerges during excavations is used in fish production processes. an approach to using it in an environmentally friendly, economical and sustainable way It is related to the system and method. 10 The invention involves the collection, purification, and quality analysis of the water in question. and a multi-stage process involving integration into production processes in aquaculture facilities. It offers a technical solution. PREVIOUS TECHNIQUE 15 Flooding and groundwater outflows encountered in tunnel construction projects It has generally been considered a "threat" in engineering literature and engineering Solutions have also been developed to eliminate these threats. In this context, Groundwater exposed during tunnel excavations is usually channeled through drainage pipes and pumps. discharged outside the tunnel via systems and into surface waters or streams 20 They are discharged into the riverbeds. However, these waters are often deficient in minerals. A rich, temperature and pH balanced source that is free of organic pollutants. These are waters of good quality. Nevertheless, in current practices, these waters are not beneficial. Integrating it into a production process is almost never considered. On the other hand, Water used in fish farming mostly requires energy and infrastructure investment. It is supplied from various sources. Surface water or groundwater sources, pumping, While requiring filtration, purification, and temperature control systems, these processes are high-efficiency. It is costly. Fish species that require stable water temperature throughout the year. Special systems are required for this. Therefore, the qualified materials revealed during tunnel excavations must be carefully selected. Groundwater, after passing through certain treatment stages, can be directly used in aquaculture production. 30 integrating them into these systems offers significant environmental and economic benefits. It provides advantages. 2 Patent application number CN107289672 concerns a ground source heat pump. It is related to the invention. Pipes laid horizontally underground in a cold region. The aim is to provide heating through this means. Application number CN107270567 describes a copper-aluminum heat exchanger. This includes application to a horizontally positioned underground heating system. 5 THE PURPOSE OF THE INVENTION The purpose of the invention is to collect underground material that is naturally exposed during tunnel excavations. instead of discharging their waters in the traditional way, they are collected in a controlled manner. monitoring of quality, subjecting to necessary purification processes and 10 in fish production It is the use of. Another purpose of the invention is to collect waste materials that are generated during tunnel excavations. groundwater, which is considered to be safe, can be reused without harming the environment. The aim is to ensure that these waters are of high quality. In this context, it is necessary to ensure that the waters in question are of high quality. The aim is to integrate it into production processes as a sustainable resource. 15 The invention offers a low-cost, constant-flow, and controlled water solution, particularly for freshwater fisheries. It enables the creation of resources. Thanks to this system, existing fish farming facilities can access alternative water sources. By providing access, it can ensure production continuity. In addition, it can be obtained The suitability of the temperature and quality parameters of the water supplied, the hatchery and brood 20 Contributing to the optimization of efficiency and growth rate in fish production processes. This invention thus supports both environmental sustainability and water conservation. an innovative solution that makes it possible to utilize resources economically It offers.

It encompasses an integrated system and method for this purpose. The invention applies to both groundwater. both the collection infrastructure and the treatment of this water before transferring it to the aquaculture environment 30 It describes an integrated structure that provides automation control. As part of the method, first, water flow along the ground inside the tunnel structure (1) The gutters (2) laid with a certain slope parallel to the direction are placed, these gutters (2) The water is transferred to the drainage pipes (3) via the filter layer (4) 4 It is passed through and collected in a collection pool (5) on the outside (Figure 1). The channels (2) and drainage pipes (3) effectively remove water from the base of the tunnel structure (1). It is made of PVC or HDPE material that will allow it to be removed. The collected water is used to increase oxygen contact and remove dissolved metal ions. They are directed to a series of resting pools (12, 14) in order to remove them. 5 Each of these pools (12, 14) reduces the flow rate of water, thereby reducing particle settling. It is formed by a multi-stage layout which facilitates. Here, an inlet pipe (16) Water taken into the system via the oxidation channel (18) passes through the natural Sedimentation is achieved. The water, whose quality is improved by this pre-treatment, The samples taken in the sample tank (30) are analyzed and the automation control unit 10 Temperature, pH, conductivity and oxygen are monitored via a control panel (22) containing (200). It is monitored with multiple sensors (32) calibrated to measure its parameters. The automation control unit (200) has a PLC-based microprocessor system, The sensor (32) continuously records data and when the specified threshold values ​​are exceeded When exiting, it gives a warning via the indicator and alarm systems (24). Here 15 The warning mentioned is in the form of both audio and visual alerts. Thanks to the data received from the sensors (32), the suitability of the system for fish health can be determined. It is constantly monitored. Treated and inspected water is supplied to the production line. transported via entrance (26) to hatchery tanks (42), then to brood rearing (44) and are directed to adult production pools (46). All 20 in the system The components are connected to each other by the main pipeline (300) and a return line (40) This ensures water circulation. The return line serves both after filtration... both bringing water back into use and minimizing energy consumption. This enables the systematic relationship of all these components to be shown in the block diagram in Figure 5. Drainage system (10), oxidation modulus (20), quality 25 respectively on the diagram. control unit (30), production module (40) and return unit (50) This has been demonstrated. Thanks to this structural integrity, the method can be extended from the laboratory scale. It is repeatable up to industrial production scale and each module is independent. modular design that allows for maintenance or renovation. It has been designed in this way. Thanks to this, high-quality groundwater that comes as waste from tunnel constructions is used. groundwater, into an energy-efficient and sustainable fish production process. is being provided.
