2. Description of the Related Art In a conventional pump dredger, when excavated earth and sand is transported by a pipeline, 10 to 20 times the amount of water of the earth and sand is mixed with the earth and sand and transported. It took a long time to complete the dehydration.
In addition, the number of cases where landfills cannot be secured in close proximity to dredging sites is increasing, and the number of cases where land treatment is carried out again by dump trucks to final disposal sites after dehydration treatment and solidification treatment is increasing. Therefore, it is required to transport the earth and sand while reducing the amount of water as much as possible, and a method of transporting the earth and sand using compressed air instead of water is being adopted.

However, in the conventional method using a mud pressure feeding tank, intermittent treatment is performed in which the tank is supplied with earth and sand, and then the tank is filled with compressed air and the earth and sand are discharged together with the compressed air. Therefore, continuous discharge of earth and sand cannot be performed. Further, in order to continuously discharge earth and sand, it is necessary to provide a plurality of tanks and sequentially switch these tanks, so that the entire apparatus becomes large and economically disadvantageous. In addition, particularly in the case of soil with a lot of sand, there is a problem that loss due to air blow-through occurs, and there is a problem that soil and sand are not carried and remain in the pipes, so that there is a problem that transport efficiency is significantly reduced. is there. In addition, water washing is required to remove soil and sand adhering to the tank when opening and closing the inlet valve of the tank and the pressure feed valve, but the washing water is mixed into the transported earth and sand, and an extra amount of water is increased. Problems such as changes in soil properties and an increase in the time required for dehydration at the disposal site occur. Furthermore, because it is a batch processing method that performs processing for each tank,
It is necessary to discharge the residual compressed air in the tank after discharging the sediment. However, when the residual air is released to the atmosphere, there are problems such as generation of noise and scattering of the sediment as fine dust.

Foreign matter must be carefully removed. In addition, in the case of coarse sand such as sand and gravel, since air blow-through occurs and it becomes difficult to form a plug flow, there is a disadvantage that the transport efficiency is significantly reduced.

Next, various experiments performed to demonstrate the effects of the present invention will be described. First, an experiment conducted for the purpose of grasping the investigation of the formation and collapse factors of the plug flow and establishing a method for regenerating the collapsed plug flow by pulsed air will be described. In the experiment, the test soil was placed in a 1.2 m 3 experimental pumping tank, and the movement of the soil in a discharge pipe (diameter 100 mm, length 120 m) consisting of a transparent PVC pipe and an SGP pipe was measured. Observation and measurement of the pressure in the tube were performed.
The test soil used in the experiment had a ratio of Kasaoka clay (silt, clay) and sandy soil of 90%: 10% and 70%: 3, respectively.
0%, 50%: 3 cases of 50%, water content 200%,
The test was performed for four cases of 100%, 50%, and 25%.
In the conventional method using the pressure feeding tank, it was observed that the earth and sand and the compressed air were transported as a long earth column in a mixed state, and it was difficult to form a plug flow. In contrast, when the earth and sand were pumped as a plug flow using the pulsed air of the present invention, an increase in the pumping amount was confirmed.

2m 3 ) and continuous separation of soil in a laboratory facility consisting of a discharge pipe (diameter 100mm, length 255m) consisting of a transparent PVC pipe and SGP pipe, and dividing the sand by changing the pulse air injection interval Data was collected on the relationship between the interval, the pumping amount, the mixing ratio, the pressure loss, and the like. In the experiment, three cases of test soil with a water content of 75%, 85%, and 95% were used.
The pulse air interval is normally closed, always open, 0.5
Second, 1.0 and 3.0 seconds were measured for each case.
As a result of the experiment, it was confirmed that a plug flow was formed from the inlet of the discharge pipe by injecting pulsed air into the pipe, and this plug flow was maintained up to the outlet. This result became more remarkable as the water content of the soil increased. In the case of the earth and sand used in this experiment, it was confirmed that the pumping amount increased when the air opening / closing ratio (the ratio between the opening time and the closing time of the pulse air) was 0.3 to 0.5. Also, it was found that the mixing ratio (the amount of muddy water that can be sent per unit air amount) was high at this air opening / closing ratio.

The advantages of the present invention are as follows. First, since pulsed air enables continuous feeding of soil and sand as a stable plug flow, efficient transport has become possible as compared with the conventional batch processing for each mud feeding tank. Second, most of the foreign matter is removed in advance by a vibrating sieve, but in the method and apparatus of the present invention, there is no valve that opens and closes in the middle, so that the decrease in work efficiency due to the obstruction is reduced. Third, since the air between the plug flows prevents sediment from accumulating in the pipe, a wide range of sediment can be transported from a low water content to a high water content. Fourth, water washing of valves attached to the mud pumping tank becomes unnecessary, and
Since the transported sediment does not contain moisture, the sediment is transported with a water content almost close to the ground. Therefore, high-concentration transportation became possible, and the sewage treatment at the landfill was reduced, and the landfill could be used early. Fifth, since the compressed air is intermittently supplied and the blow-through loss of the air is small, the air consumption is small, and the energy consumption is also reduced. Sixth, since the mud pumping tank is not required, the entire apparatus is reduced in size, whereby a disassembly and assembly type structure can be realized, and the applicable range has been widened. Seventh, since there is no need to release compressed air from the device during operation, noise generation and dust scattering are eliminated.
