For example, these terms may refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection, and the specific meaning of these terms in the present application may be understood according to the specific situation for those of ordinary skill in the art.

(11) The terms first and second are merely for the purpose of description and are not to be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implying the number of indicated technical features. Therefore, features defined with first or second may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present application, the meaning of a plurality is two or more unless otherwise specified.

(12) Referring to FIG. 1, the embodiments of the present application provide an apparatus for leaching toxic substances from inorganic binder-stabilized solid waste materials, which includes a specimen placement box 1, a water supply and drainage system 2, and an angle adjustment apparatus.

(13) Referring to FIGS. 1 and 5, a to-be-tested beam type specimen (not shown in the figure) is provided in the specimen placement box 1. A water inlet joint 11 and a drainage outlet 12 are provided on the specimen placement box 1. The inlet of the water inlet joint 11 is connected to the outlet of the water supply and drainage system 2, the outlet of the water inlet joint 11 is positioned above the to-be-tested beam type specimen, and the drainage outlet 12 is connected to the inlet of the water supply and drainage system 2. The angle adjustment apparatus is capable of adjusting the inclination of the specimen placement box 1.

(14) Before use, the angle adjustment apparatus is adjusted first to enable the inclination angle of the to-be-tested beam type specimen to be equal to the inclination angle of the road surface where the to-be-tested beam type specimen is located, then the water supply and drainage system 2 is started. In this way, the water in the water supply and drainage system 2 can flow to the highest end of the to-be-tested beam type specimen through the outlet of the water inlet joint 11, then flow into the specimen placement box 1 along the upper surface of the to-be-tested beam type specimen, and finally re-enter the water supply and drainage system 2 through the drainage outlet 12. Therefore, the working condition of rainwater scouring the road surface can be simulated, so that the to-be-tested beam type specimen can undergo leaching as a complete structure through water flow scouring without needing to be crushed and then horizontally oscillated. This reduces unreasonable leaching of toxic substances, ensuring that the leaching mode and amount are more in line with engineering practices.

(15) Referring to FIGS. 2 and 5, in some embodiments, the specimen placement box 1 is a cuboid structure with an opening facing upward. The water inlet joint 11 is provided on the left side wall of the specimen placement box 1. The drainage outlet 12 is provided on the right side wall of the specimen placement box 1 and is provided near the bottom surface. The cross sections of the inlet and the outlet of the water inlet joint 11 are rectangular, with the size of the inlet being larger than that of the outlet. The upper and lower surfaces between the inlet and the outlet of the water inlet joint 11 are both arc surfaces. For convenience of installation, a first clamping groove 111 adapted to the left side wall of the specimen placement box 1 is provided at the bottom of the water inlet joint 11, thereby facilitating the installation and positioning of the water inlet joint 11.

(16) Referring to FIG. 5, in some embodiments, a filter screen 13 is provided at the drainage outlet 12, and the filter screen can prevent larger particles from entering the water supply and drainage system 2, thereby avoiding impacts on working efficiency and test data reliability.

(17) In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 4, a specimen accommodating shell 14 with an opening facing upward is detachably connected to the bottom surface of the specimen placement box 1. The specimen accommodating shell 14 is also a cuboid structure. It should be noted that there may be a plurality of specimen accommodating shells 14 with the same structure but different sizes. The to-be-tested beam type specimen is positioned in the specimen accommodating shell 14. The size of the specimen accommodating shell 14 selected each time may be selected according to the size of the to-be-tested beam type specimen, so as to be applicable to to-be-tested beam type specimens of different sizes.

(18) In some embodiments, a water-permeable layer 15 is provided on the upper surface of the to-be-tested beam type specimen, and the outlet of the water inlet joint 11 is positioned above the water-permeable layer 15. Therefore, the surface layer above the base layer can be simulated, and the leaching result is more accurate.

(19) Referring to FIGS. 1, 2, and 6, in some embodiments, the water supply and drainage system 2 includes a water pipe 21, as well as a water pump 22 and a water temperature control apparatus 23 sequentially provided on the water pipe 21, with the water pump 22 being provided near the water inlet joint 11. The water temperature control apparatus 23 can adjust the distilled water therein to the average temperature in a rainy season of an area where the to-be-tested specimen is located. The water pump 22 can suck the distilled water in the water temperature control apparatus 23 into the specimen placement box 1, forming a circulation. Both the water pump 22 and the water temperature control apparatus 23 may be placed on the ground or the installation surface. In addition, to keep the balance of the whole apparatus, a supporting block 16 may be further provided at the bottom of the specimen placement box 1.

(20) In some embodiments, the leaching apparatus of the embodiments of the present application further includes a control unit (not shown in the figure). The water pipe 21 is also provided with two electromagnetic regulating valves 24 with flowmeters, one of which is provided near the water inlet joint 11 and the other is provided near the drainage outlet 12. The control unit is electrically connected to both of the electromagnetic regulating valves 24 with flowmeters. The control unit is capable of controlling the electromagnetic regulating valve 24 with flowmeters to adjust the opening degree according to the received flow information.

(21) Referring to FIGS. 1, 3, and 4, in some embodiments, an angle adjustment apparatus includes clamping plates 3 fixedly connected to the front and rear side walls of the specimen placement box 1. The clamping plates 3 are provided near the left side (water inlet joint 11). The clamping plates 3 are rectangular plates extending in a vertical direction. A plurality of second clamping grooves 31 evenly distributed in a vertical direction are formed on the clamping plate 3. The size of the second clamping groove 31 is matched with the size of the water pipe 21. Therefore, the specimen placement box 1 can be tilted both to the right front and to the right rear. It should be noted that the distance between the second clamping grooves 31 is calculated according to a trigonometric function, and each elevation of a second clamping groove 31 represents an increase in angle by a certain degree. Because the whole water pipe 21 is elastic, the whole specimen placement box 1 may slightly swing up and down or back and forth, but the section of the water pipe 21 near the water pump 22 is rigid due to the limitation of the water pump 22 and the water temperature adjustment apparatus. Therefore, when the inclination angle of the to-be-tested beam type specimen needs to be adjusted, it only needs to clamp the water pipe 21 near the water pump 22 into the corresponding second clamping groove 31, making the adjustment very convenient.

(22) The embodiments of the present application further provide a leaching method based on the above apparatus for leaching toxic substances from inorganic binder-stabilized solid waste materials. The method includes the following steps:

(23) In step 1, a to-be-tested beam type specimen is placed in a preset position of a specimen placement box 1 and covered with a water-permeable layer 15, and then the inclination angle of the specimen placement box 1 is set by an angle adjustment apparatus according to the actual highway inclination angle.

(24) In step 2, according to mixing proportion data, distilled water with a mass 10 times that of toxic substances is added into the water temperature control apparatus 23, then the top cover of the water temperature control apparatus 23 is closed, and the water temperature is adjusted to an average temperature in a rainy season of an area where the to-be-tested specimen is located.

(25) In step 3, after the water temperature reaches a calibrated temperature, the water pump 22 is started, and the flow is adjusted through a control unit; a transparent plate (not shown in the figure) is covered on the top of the specimen placement box 1 after the water flow submerges the to-be-tested beam type specimen and the water inflow and outflow are observed to be equivalent, preventing evaporation of water and facilitating observation of the water flow scouring condition.

(26) In step 4, after the apparatus has been operating for 8 hours, a certain amount of solution is weighed and placed into a clean container to stand for 16 hours; the supernatant is filtered through a 45 m filter membrane referring to the norm HJ 557-2010 Solid Waste-Extraction Procedure for Leaching Toxicity-Horizontal Vibration Method; the filtered supernatant is sent to a laboratory as soon as possible for testing referring to toxic substance testing methods related to GB 5085.3-2007 Standards for Hazardous Waste-Identification for Extraction Toxicity.

(27) The above are merely the specific embodiments of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the present application should fall within the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
