RUNPOWERWater Treatment Industry Solutions

Amidst the rapid urbanization process, the scarcity of water in cities has become increasingly evident. Issues such as the decline in surface water, overexploitation of groundwater, and deteriorating water quality have exacerbated the problem of emergency water supply in urban areas. In the event of significant natural disasters or environmental pollution emergencies, cities often face the challenge of being unable to maintain normal water supply. Natural disasters and unexpected events pose significant challenges to emergency water supply, making it crucial to establish long-term and effective emergency water supply mechanisms as a vital component of safeguarding urban drinking water safety. In the deliberation of the Water Pollution Prevention and Control Law Amendment (Draft) at the 25th Session of the 12th National People's Congress Standing Committee, provisions were added to require cities with single-source water supplies to establish emergency or backup water sources and strengthen emergency management for drinking water safety. Among the feasible measures to implement these precautions, emergency water purification vehicles emerge as a viable option

Introduction to the Emergency Water Purification Vehicle System

The emergency water purification vehicle system is designed to meet the diverse functional needs of various scenarios, including emergency cases, disaster sites, and post-disaster reconstruction efforts. Therefore, it places high demands on the stability and reliability of water purification technologies, processes, and control systems, as well as its adaptability to raw water sources. The BluePro PLC, specifically utilized in this rapidly responsive emergency water supply vehicle, incorporates a purification unit that utilizes a dual-membrane method of "ultrafiltration + reverse osmosis." This advanced technology effectively treats a wide range of complex water qualities, including high-algae, brackish, high-turbidity, polluted surface water, and low-temperature/low-turbidity water, making it suitable for use in various regions such as Northeast China, North China, and Southwest China.

 

The PLC collects various water quality parameters, pressure, conductivity, temperature, and other relevant data through multiple analog inputs. Based on the defined process flow, it controls various components such as intake pumps, backwashing pumps, booster pumps, blowers, and solenoid valves. Through automated control processes like pretreatment, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, or reverse osmosis, the treated water meets the national standards for drinking water quality as specified in the "Sanitary Standard for Drinking Water." Furthermore, the system boasts a high water production capacity of up to 5m³/h, ensuring that it can maintain this output even under the most unfavorable water quality conditions. This makes it well-suited to respond to water shortages caused by various natural disasters, including earthquakes, mudslides, and floods.

Typical PLC configuration list for emergency water supply vehicle

The emergency water supply system is designed to excel in challenging environments, exhibiting several noteworthy features that ensure its reliability and performance. Here are four key features that highlight the system's unique capabilities:

 

(1) Robust Stability in Harsh Conditions: The system incorporates a PLC that is capable of operating stably in adverse environments, such as high humidity and unstable power supplies. This ensures continuous and reliable operation, even in the most demanding field conditions.

 

(2) Enhanced Resistance to Vibrations: Given the significant vibrations encountered during the operation of the emergency water truck, the PLC is equipped with strong anti-vibration interference capabilities. This allows it to maintain stable performance even under high-vibration conditions.

 

(3) Long-Term Durability and Wide-Temperature Operation: The system is designed to withstand extended outdoor storage periods without usage. It is capable of enduring harsh environments and maintaining stable product performance even after long periods of inactivity. Additionally, it operates reliably in a wide range of temperatures, ensuring uninterrupted service in varying climatic conditions.

 

(4)High-Precision and Reliable Analog Input/Output: The PLC features high-accuracy and reliable analog input/output capabilities, enabling precise data collection and monitoring. It also supports multiple expansion modules and multiple analog channels, providing enhanced flexibility and scalability to meet the diverse requirements of the emergency water supply system.

Key Features of the Emergency Water Supply System

Mine intelligent power supply monitoring system

Mine intelligent power supply monitoring system includes ground intelligent power distribution system and underground power monitoring system two parts: ground intelligent power distribution system monitors coal washing plant, coal bunker, loading station and other ground power distribution equipment, underground power monitoring system monitors room, belt roadway, fully mechanized mining face, driving face, water pump room and other areas of underground mine electrical equipment.

In the ground intelligent distribution system, the high voltage cabinet adopts the relay protection device supporting power 104 or IEC61850 protocol; The low voltage cabinet integrates bus motor protection module and gateway module based on PLC technology to form programmable intelligent distribution cabinet. The high and low voltage cabinets are interconnected through Ethernet.

​Intelligent distribution cabinet set motor protection, line protection, harmonic control, metering, automatic control, communication and other functions in one, cost-effective, easy to install, debug and maintenance.

The underground power monitoring system adopts PLC intelligent protector, supports power 104, IEC61850 protocol, and has infrared remote control, WiFi, 5G, Ethernet, CAN and other communication methods to facilitate equipment interconnection and human-computer interaction, monitoring and management of mine electrical appliances such as combined switches, shifting high and low voltage heads, high explosive switches, frequency converters and so on.

The mine intelligent power supply monitoring system can realize the functions of telemetry, remote communication, remote control, remote coordination and remote viewing, and monitor, locate, warn and protect the fault, so as to solve many problems that beset the coal mine power supply, including power supply system tripping, voltage fluctuation tripping, leakage grounding line selection, accurate fault location, and accurate protection under strong interference.
