Saline intrusion can seriously affect the performance of outfall systems and an understanding of the mechanisms causing intrusion is important in the hydraulic design of outfalls, particularly for deep riser tunnelled outfalls. The paper outlines the reasons for the occurrence of saline intrusion, the problems that arise when it is present and the methods available for prevention and purging. The paper draws on recent work undertaken on the design of a major deep tunnel outfall system using a physical model and outlines some novel methods devised for purging of the system.

The spatial and temporal distribution of tunnel failure is very complex due to geologic heterogeneity and variability in both mining processes and tunnel arrangement in deep metal mines. In this paper, the quantitative risk assessment for deep tunnel failure was performed using a normal cloud model at the Ashele copper mine, China. This was completed by considering the evaluation indexes of geological condition, mining process, and microseismic data. A weighted distribution of evaluation indexes was determined by implementation of an entropy weight method to reveal the primary parameters controlling tunnel failure. Additionally, the damage levels of the tunnel were quantitatively assigned by computing the degree of membership that different damage levels had, based on the expectation normalization method. The methods of maximum membership principle, comprehensive evaluation value, and fuzzy entropy were considered to determine the tunnel damage levels and risk of occurrence. The application of this method at the Ashele copper mine demonstrates that it meets the requirement of risk assessment for deep tunnel failure and can provide a basis for large-scale regional tunnel failure control in deep metal mines.
