Description

  The present invention relates to a method for improving contaminated soil.

Conventionally, as a contaminated soil improvement methods, there has been known one disclosed in Patent Document 1. In the conventional example shown in Patent Document 1, a storage cylinder having a water passage hole is inserted into the soil where the soil is contaminated, and an adsorbent is put in and out of the storage cylinder so as to be freely inserted. The adsorbent absorbs contaminants contained in the groundwater that has entered the storage cylinder through the water holes.

  Here, the pollutant contained in the soil is gradually dissolved in the groundwater, and the groundwater from which the pollutant is eluted comes into contact with the adsorbent, so that the pollutant is adsorbed on the adsorbent.

JP 2009-297617 A

  However, the speed at which the pollutants contained in the soil dissolve and move in the groundwater is limited by the type and particle size of the soil, and is 1 m / year even in general sandy soil. In the case of silt or clay layers, groundwater As it is difficult to penetrate, it takes 10 to 100 times as many years.

  Therefore, it is conceivable to increase the speed of movement by flowing water, but if the water simply contacts the contaminated soil, the amount of elution will be small because the pollutants contained in the soil will only elute gradually. Takes time. Moreover, it is not easy to flow water from the upper layer to the lower layer on average.

  Therefore, there is a problem that it takes a long time to remove pollutants for a long time only by the method of eluting the pollutants into the groundwater and adsorbing the adsorbent with the adsorbent.

  The present invention was invented in view of the problems of the conventional example described above, and the object of the present invention is to effectively elute contaminants contained in the soil and to effectively contact the adsorbent. It is an object of the present invention to provide a method for improving contaminated soil that can effectively adsorb and remove pollutants and shorten the time required for removing pollutants.

Contaminated soil improved process of the present invention, contaminants and water injection from injection accommodating cylinder 3 inserted into the ground 1 soil is contaminated underground 1, ground water from the pumping accommodating cylinder 4 inserted in the ground 1 and pumping a circulation passage for injecting into the ground 1 by supplying the pumped groundwater and pumped accommodating cylinder 4 and irrigating cylindrical body 3 in through the communicating pipe 5 again water injection accommodating cylinder 3 communicating 7 is formed, contaminants of the ground water flowing through the communicating pipe 5, in which adsorbed by the adsorbent 2 arranged in the middle of the communication pipe 5, before injection into the ground 1, is first ground 1 it characterized by injecting carbon dioxide.

By adopting such a method, the contaminant contained in the circulating groundwater can be effectively adsorbed and removed by the adsorbent 2 while circulating the groundwater containing the contaminant. In this case, before injecting water into the ground 1, by first injecting carbon dioxide into the ground 1, the amount of the pollutant elution from the soil increases due to the chemical reaction between the pollutant and carbon dioxide. A gap through which groundwater flows into the underground 1 due to the gas permeability is enlarged, and the movement of the groundwater containing pollutants is improved, so that it can be adsorbed by the adsorbent 2 and removed. Moreover, it becomes possible to arrange | position the communicating pipe 5 on the ground, and to replace | exchange the adsorbent 2 on the ground, and replacement | exchange and disposal of the adsorbent 2 become easy.

Moreover, the contaminated soil improvement method of this invention inserts the storage cylinder 8 which has the water flow hole 17 in the underground 1 in which the soil is contaminated with the pollutant, and adsorbent 2 to this storage cylinder 8. The pollutants contained in the groundwater that has been poured into the underground 1 from the water supply cylinder 9 inserted into the underground 1 and entered the storage cylinder 8 through the water passage holes 17 are stored. in those which absorb in the adsorbent 2, before injection into the ground 1, characterized by first injecting the carbon dioxide into the ground 1.

Before performing the injection in this manner in the ground 1 is first to inject carbon dioxide into the earth in 1, the amount of elution of the soil contaminants with increases, the groundwater in the ground by the permeability of carbon dioxide gas It can be removed by adsorbing with the adsorbent 2 by enlarging the flowing gap, improving the movement of groundwater containing pollutants. Moreover, it becomes possible to remove the adsorbent 2 from the storage cylinder 8, and the adsorbent 2 can be easily replaced and disposed. Moreover, by pouring water into the underground 1 from the water cylinder 9, the flow of groundwater can be promoted, the amount of water flowing through the voids enlarged by the permeability of carbon dioxide gas can be increased, and the removal of pollutants is more effective. Can be done.
Moreover, it is preferable to inject | pour the carbon dioxide gas into the underground 1 from the water injection cylinder 3 before injecting water into the underground 1.
Alternatively, it is preferable to inject carbon dioxide into the underground 1 from the carbon dioxide injection pipe 15 inserted into the underground 1.

Since the present invention first injects carbon dioxide before injecting water into the soil where the soil is contaminated with the pollutant as described above, the amount of pollutant elution from the soil increases, and The permeability allows the groundwater flowing into the ground to expand and allows the groundwater containing pollutants to move well, and can be adsorbed effectively by adsorbing with an adsorbent. Thereby, the period required for the removal of soil pollutants in the ground can be shortened.

It is explanatory drawing of one Embodiment of this invention. It is explanatory drawing of other embodiment same as the above. It is explanatory drawing of other embodiment same as the above. It is explanatory drawing of other embodiment same as the above.

  Hereinafter, the present invention will be described based on embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

  FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the present invention. In the present embodiment, first, a metal pipe, a synthetic resin pipe, and a ceramic industry in which a large number of water injection holes 10 such as small holes and slits are provided on the outer periphery in the ground 1 where the soil is contaminated with heavy metals such as lead and arsenic. A water injection cylinder 3 such as a system cylinder, and a pumping cylinder 4 such as a metal pipe, a synthetic resin pipe, and a ceramic industry cylinder provided with a large number of suction holes 11 such as small holes and slits on the outer periphery are embedded.

The water injection cylinder 3 is embedded in the underground 1 to inject water into the underground 1 from the water injection hole 10, and the pumping cylinder 4 pumps ground water from the suction hole 11. it is to buried in the ground 1 to. Here, the suction hole 11 does not allow earth and sand to pass through, but allows water to pass through.

  The upper end of the water injection cylinder 3 and the upper end of the pumping cylinder 4 are each shielded by a lid, and both ends of the communication pipe 5 penetrate the lid of the water injection cylinder 3 and the cover of the communication pipe 5. The water injection cylinder 3 and the pumping cylinder 4 are connected in communication.

  A pump 6 and an adsorbent storage part 12 are provided in the middle of the communication pipe 5, and the pump 6 and the adsorbent storage part 12 are located on the ground.

  The adsorbent storage unit 12 accommodates the adsorbent 2 so that it can be inserted and removed freely. In this case, the adsorbent 2 is stored in the adsorbent storage portion 12 in a state where it is put in a bag 16 that is water-permeable and does not flow out of the adsorbent. The adsorbent 2 to be used is not particularly limited as long as it adsorbs contaminants. For example, iron powder, zeolite, incinerated ash, mineral powder, clay and the like are used alone or in combination.

As described above, the water injection cylinder 3 for injecting water into the underground 1 and the pumping cylinder 4 for pumping the underground water in the underground 1 are connected to each other having the pump 6 and the adsorbent storage part 12. by connecting communicating with the pipe 5, the water injection tube body 3 → ground 1 → pumping accommodating cylinder 4 → pump 6 and a circulation flow of ground water that communicating pipe 5 → irrigating cylindrical body 3 having an adsorbent chamber 12 A path 7 is formed.

  A water supply pipe 18 is further connected to the communication pipe 5 through a valve 13.

  Further, a carbon dioxide supply unit 14 is connected to the water injection cylinder 3 so that carbon dioxide can be supplied from the carbon dioxide supply unit 14 to the water injection cylinder 3.

  The contaminated soil is improved using the apparatus as described above.

  As a basic operation of the apparatus, the pump 6 is operated to pump ground water from the pumping cylinder 4 and supplied to the water injection cylinder 3 through the adsorbent storage section 12 storing the adsorbent 2 for water injection. An operation of returning groundwater from the water injection hole 10 of the cylinder 3 to the underground 1 is performed. In other words, the circulation operation is performed in which the circulation channel 7 is formed while the groundwater penetrates through the underground 1 where the soil is contaminated. Thereby, the pollutant contained in the soil is eluted in the groundwater penetrating the underground 1, and the pollutant is adsorbed by the adsorbent 2 when the groundwater from which this pollutant has eluted passes through the adsorbent 2.

  In the present embodiment, the carbon dioxide injection operation is performed before the groundwater circulation operation, or the carbon dioxide injection operation is performed in parallel with the groundwater circulation operation, or before the groundwater circulation operation. In addition to the carbon dioxide gas injection operation, the carbon dioxide gas injection operation is performed in parallel with the groundwater circulation operation.

  Here, when the carbon dioxide injection operation is performed before the ground water circulation operation and in parallel with the circulation operation, the carbon dioxide gas injection operation may be performed continuously or intermittently. May be performed. In some cases, especially in an enclosed space, air is mixed with carbon dioxide and injected.

  By injecting carbon dioxide gas into the underground 1 from the water injection cylinder 3, the carbon dioxide gas reacts with the water in the underground 1 to become carbonated water. Then, these carbonated water and carbon dioxide gas come into contact with the soil containing the pollutant to elute the pollutant, and the voids between the soil particles are widened by the permeability of the carbon dioxide gas. Therefore, the groundwater penetrates into the voids between the soil particles spread by the penetration of carbon dioxide gas, and the groundwater penetrates even in the silt layer and the clay layer.

  In this way, it is possible to increase the amount of contaminants eluted from the contaminated soil and increase the amount of groundwater infiltration. Therefore, in the circulation operation in which groundwater circulates through the circulation channel 7 as described above, the amount of contaminants dissolved in the groundwater pumped by the pumping cylinder 4 increases, and the contaminants adsorbed by the adsorbent 2 are increased. The amount increases, pollutants in the contaminated soil can be effectively removed in a short period of time, and the soil can be improved underground.

  When a certain period of time has passed or when it is confirmed that the adsorption of the pollutant to the adsorbent 2 is saturated, the bag 16 containing the adsorbent 2 is taken out of the adsorbent storage unit 12 and newly adsorbed. The bag 16 containing the material 2 is stored in the adsorbent storage unit 12.

  In the present embodiment, when the amount of circulating groundwater decreases, the valve 13 is opened, water is supplied from the water supply pipe 18, and water is injected from the water injection cylinder 3 into the ground 1.

  FIG. 2 shows another embodiment of the present invention. In the above embodiment, an example in which carbon dioxide gas is injected into the ground 1 using the water injection cylinder 3 is shown. However, in this embodiment, a carbon dioxide injection pipe 15 different from the water injection cylinder 3 is provided in the ground. In this example, carbon dioxide is injected into the underground 1 from the carbon dioxide injection pipe 15. Since other configurations are the same as those of the above-described embodiment, description thereof is omitted.

  Next, still another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.

  In the present embodiment, a storage cylinder 8 having a water passage hole 17 in the underground 1 where the soil is contaminated with a contaminant and a carbon dioxide injection pipe 15 are inserted into the underground 1.

The adsorbent 2 is stored in the storage cylinder 8. The adsorbent 2 is put in a water-permeable bag 16 and suspended by a string 19 or the like and stored in the storage cylinder 8. By pulling the string 19, the bag 16 containing the adsorbent 2, taken out on the land, so that the bag 16 containing the new adsorbent 2 can again accommodated.

  When the groundwater comes into contact with the contaminated soil containing the pollutant, the pollutant is dissolved in the groundwater, and the groundwater in which the pollutant is dissolved enters through the water passage hole 17 and comes into contact with the adsorbent 2, thereby Contaminants contained in the adsorbent 2 are adsorbed.

  Here, in the present embodiment, carbon dioxide is injected into the ground 1 from the carbon dioxide supply unit 14 through the carbon dioxide injection pipe 15. In injecting the carbon dioxide gas, it is continuously injected for a certain period (time) or intermittently within a certain period (time).

  By injecting carbon dioxide into the underground 1 from the carbon dioxide injection pipe 15, the carbon dioxide reacts with the water in the underground 1 to become carbonated water. Then, these carbonated water and carbon dioxide gas come into contact with the soil containing the pollutant to elute the pollutant, and the voids between the soil particles are widened by the permeability of the carbon dioxide gas. Therefore, the groundwater penetrates into the voids between the soil particles spread by the penetration of carbon dioxide gas, and the groundwater penetrates even in the silt layer and the clay layer.

  In this way, it is possible to increase the amount of contaminants eluted from the contaminated soil and increase the amount of groundwater infiltration. Therefore, the amount of contaminants adsorbed in contact with the adsorbent 2 increases, and the soil can be effectively improved underground in a short period of time.

  Next, still another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.

  In this embodiment, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 3, the water supply cylinder 9 is further inserted into the ground, and water is injected from the water supply cylinder 9 into the ground 1.

  Carbon dioxide gas is injected in parallel with the operation of injecting carbon dioxide gas before water is injected into the underground 1 from the water supply cylinder 9 or in parallel with the injection of water into the underground 1 from the water supply cylinder 9. Carbon dioxide gas is injected in parallel with the injection operation of carbon dioxide gas before water is injected into the underground 1 from the water supply cylinder 9 and water is injected into the underground 1 from the water supply cylinder 9 Perform the injection operation.

  Here, when performing the carbon dioxide gas injection operation in parallel with the operation of pouring water into the underground 1 from the water supply cylinder 9, the carbon dioxide gas injection operation may be performed continuously or intermittently. A gas injection operation may be performed.

  In the present embodiment, by injecting carbon dioxide into the underground 1, the carbon dioxide reacts with the water in the underground 1 to become carbonated water. Then, these carbonated water and carbon dioxide gas come into contact with the soil containing the pollutant to elute the pollutant, and the voids between the soil particles are widened by the permeability of the carbon dioxide gas.

  In addition, the flow of groundwater can be promoted by injecting water into the underground 1 from the water supply cylinder 9, so that the groundwater penetrates into the voids between the soil particles spread by the penetration of carbon dioxide gas, and the silt layer Even in clay layers, groundwater penetrates.

  In this way, it is possible to increase the elution amount of the pollutant from the contaminated soil and to increase the amount of permeation by promoting the flow of groundwater. Therefore, the amount of contaminants adsorbed in contact with the adsorbent 2 increases, and the soil can be effectively improved underground in a short period of time.
