Research on the detection and early warning technology of harmful marine organisms in the water intake of nuclear power plant by 3D image sonar

Abstract

In view of the frequent water intake blockage caused by marine biological invasion in many nuclear power plants, which affects the safety of cold source in nuclear power plants, a defense system in depth including marine biological identification, detection, early warning and hierarchical response is established through investigation and analysis of the causes of the event. Underwater acoustic high-resolution multi beam detection method is used to detect jellyfish, hairy shrimp and other marine organisms, The echo characteristics are obtained, the distribution density in sensitive sea area is analyzed, and the effective early warning judgment is given. Among them, detection and early warning is the front-end disposal measure, which can provide accurate and timely marine biological information for the subsequent hierarchical response. At the same time, it can replace the underwater inspection work of divers, reduce the risk of divers, reduce the risk of industrial safety, and improve the reliability of cold source.
