Optimization of Dechlorination Experiment Design Using Lightweight Deep Learning Model

Abstract

This exploration intends to remove chloride ions in production and life, enhance buildings’ durability, and protect the natural environment from pollution. The current dechlorination technology is discussed based on the relevant theories, such as the lightweight deep learning (DL) model and chloride ion characteristics. Next, data statistics and comparative analysis methods are used to study the adsorption and desorption performance of dechlorination adsorbents. Finally, the lightweight DL model is introduced into the chloride diffusion prediction experiment of slag powder and fly ash concrete. The results show that in the study of dechlorination adsorption performance, the chloride ion concentration decreases gradually with the extension of adsorption time. However, with the increasing temperature, the chloride ion removal rate is increasing. The removal rate of chloride ions in water can decrease slowly with the increase of adsorbent. Therefore, selecting the 2 mol/L sodium hydroxide as the alkali concentration for adsorbent regeneration is the most appropriate. Besides, the regeneration performance of the adsorbent gradually declines with the increase of sodium chloride concentration in the solution. The lightweight DL model is applied to the chloride diffusion prediction experiment of slag powder and fly ash concrete. It is found that when the curing age is selected at 18 days, 90 days, and 180 days, respectively, the error between the lightweight DL model and the experimental results is about 0.2. It shows that the lightweight DL model is feasible for predicting the diffusion of chloride ions. Therefore, this exploration designs and studies the dechlorination experiment based on the lightweight DL model, which provides a new theoretical basis and optimization direction for removing chloride ions in the future industry.
