CLEAN AND EFFICIENT COAL MINING METHOD

Abstract

The present invention relates to a clean and efficient coal mining method, which is applicable to the field of solid waste treatment in mines. The method is characterized in: the width of short-segment working faces is designed according to the discharge volume of solid wastes produced in a mine, including downhole gangue and surface coal ash; first, two adjacent short-segment working faces are mined and backfilled, and the edges of the filling face and the solid coal side are supported with anchor rods while roadways are retained; the roadways retained at the two short-segment working faces and the coal mass in the middle constitute a long-segment working face mining system; the long-segment working face is mined, the short-segment backfilled working faces at the two sides are mined and backfilled at the same time, and the gangue produced at the long-segment working face is transported to the short-segment working faces to fill, so that a continuous mining system that consists of backfill mining at short-segment working faces and efficient stopping at long-segment working faces is realized. The method provided in the present invention can deal with all surface and downhole solid wastes in a mine, reduces the cost of gangue treatment, and mitigates damages to the ecological environment; besides, the method utilizes solid wastes to fill the gobs to form roadways, eliminates coal pillars and improve resource recovery rate.
