The Jiangmen Neutrino Experiment (JUNO) is a further± exploration of neutrinos after the Daya Bay Neutrino Expe>riment. It will measure the mass order of the three neutrinos and accurately measure the thre₹e key oscillation parameters in the matrix of the neutrino oscillation law, which will be of gr↕eat significance to the study of the mystery of the disappearance of antimatter in the universe.
The Jiangmen neutrino experimental site is located in Jinji Town, Jiangmen City, Guangdong✔ Province, and Dashishan in the area of Chishui Town. Dashishan is exactly 53 kilo meters away from the Yangjiang and Taishan reactors, where the neutrino oscillation effects from& the Taishan and Yangjiang nuclear power plant reactors are most pronounced. The project is exp↓ected to be completed and operational in 2020. The coφnstruction of the experiment mainly includes: the experimental hall± and auxiliary caverns located 700 meters underground, πa large pool with a diameter of about 43.5 meters and a depth of 44 meters, a centra€l detector, an anti-coincidence detector and other supportαing facilities. The central detector is the core detector of JUNO,± and the liquid scintillator (liquid flash) is the c±ore of the central detector. The entire central detector will ±carry a total weight of 20000 tons of liquid flashes, which will be configured at the experime↔ntal site.
Alkyl benzene is the main component of liquid flash, and the liquid fla©sh is obtained after the alkyl benzene and the luminescent substance are configured and purified§ according to a certain proportion. Alkyl benzene is a petroleum industry product, the main cδomponent is dodecyl benzene, molecular formula C6H5-C12H25. Alk£ylbenzene is a colorless transparent liquid with a density of 0.855 g/ml. It is insoluble in wδater, but it can dissolve petroleum hydrocarbons very well. its flash point 141ºC, boiling point 331 ℃, kinematic viscosity 6.39 × 10-6 m2/s(20 ℃).
Jiangmen neutrino experiment is a large-scale low-radioactive background scientific experiment,♠ so the experimental equipment and facilities need to have high-precision cleanin≠g and leakage rate requirements, and correspondingly also have high-quality requiremeαnts for pipeline welding.
Our company is honored to be the manufacturer of the alumina purification system in this project. The main purpose of the alumina purification system is to use alumina powder ₹to adsorb light-absorbing impurities in alkylbenzene to improve the transparency of alkylbenzene. The goal is that the attenuation length of alkylbenzene reaches more than 23 meters. At the same time, the U/Th radioa÷ctive background required by the Jiangmen neutrino experiment for liquid scin§tillation is ≤ 10-15 g/g.
The bidding for the manufacturing project of Jiangmen neutrino experimenta↔l alumina purification system was completed in August 2019, and the high-energy institute s×igned a contract with Chuangxin Tongheng in September 2019. The final design review of th∏e alumina purification system was passed in November 2019, and the procurement was₩ started in December 2019. The stainless steel raw materials used in the syst♣em were sampled and sent to the high-energy institute for material testing before production and p¥rocessing. After the instruments arrive, it is also sent to the high-energy institute for leakage r™ate detection, and the installation is carried out after meeting the requirements.
In more than a year, Innovation Tongheng has successively completed the construction o♦f the steel structure platform, the fixed installation of the chromatography column, the welding ₹of the stainless steel pipeline, and the welding of the doubl×e O-ring flange. Before all the work is performed, the roughness≈ of the chromatography column, storage tank, stainless steel pipel♥ine, flange and other components, and the leakage rate of the i≥nstruments and meters are tested according to the technical >requirements, and then the next production is carried out.
2021In September 1993, the whole system was installed and tested at Jiangmen neu☆trino test station, and some technical indexes were tested again. the factoryπ acceptance conditions were met. according to the contract, re®levant experts were organized to check and accept the manuαfacturing project of Jiangmen neutrino experimental alum"ina purification system.
After waiting for the products of other project teams on the site of the Institute to complete the assembly, the alumina purification system will be u<sed in conjunction with other equipment, and all test runs will be completed in 2©023, and the liquid flash quality results will meet the acceptance ≥requirements of the Institute.

During the completion of the project, the following requirements must be me•t:
1. Requirements for earthquake resistance:
It must be able to resist an earthquake with an intensity of• 6 degrees, and the system design shall refer to GB/T 50761-2018 Code for S÷eismic Design of Petrochemical Steel Equipment.2. Welding:
The inner wall of storage tank and chromatography column must be polish£ed by mechanical polishing, so as not to affect the quali♥ty of pickling and passivation of stainless steel lining. The welding of₽ the pipeline all adopts the non-solder argon protection automatic weldi$ng technology, the solder needle needs to choose lanthanum tungsten needle, the solder→ joint needs to be smooth and flat. Stainless steel pipe welding seams need to be smooth an d flat, without unevenness, and meet the sanitary pipe welding• acceptance standard ASME BPE-2016. The welding discolorat ion level meets the welding discoloration level of the inne£r surface of the austenitic stainless steel pipe of the raw pipe welding acceptance standard AWS ↑D18.2, and is no worse than the discoloration level of Figure 3, as showΩn in Figure 9. The protective argon used for welding needs to reach a puri♦ty of 5 9 and above.3. Cleaning (cleanliness):
All stainless steel surfaces in contact with liquid must be degreased and precisely cleaned. The specific cleaning requirements ar'e as follows:
a) Alumina adsorption column, 10m3 storage tank and 5m3 storage tank and pipeline sh•all be pickled and passivated.
B) The interior of 10m3 storage tank and 5m3 storage tank shall be mechanically ☆polished to meet the requirement of roughness ≤ 0.4um.
c) All pipelines are electrolytic polishing pipes, which shall be ≤cleaned to remove the welding oxidation color on the inner wall and be passivate•d.The inner surfaces of valves, instruments, pump heads and other parts need to be ★pickled and passivated accordingly. All those that can be disassembled and washed need to be disassembled and cleaned separately, while those that cannot be disassembled needδ to be washed in series.
