The invention discloses a downhole water-
coal separation system. The downhole water-
coal separation system comprises a downhole
coal raker, a receiving hopper, a shredder, a spiral
sludge dewatering equipment and a
belt conveyor. The invention further discloses a corresponding water-coal
separation method. The method comprises the steps of mounting, primary water-coal separating, secondary water-coal separating, crushing, concentrating and dehydrating, wherein concentrated and dewatered coal cakes are conveyed to a skip bucket by mine cars. According to the
system and the method, the mountingis convenient, the operating is simple and convenient, the field adaptability is high, the water-coal separating effect is good, seaborne coal,
silt coal and even bulk coal can be raked out conveniently, the influence on mine drainage caused by blockage to a main water pump is prevented, tasks which are difficultly completed by downhole equipment in the past can be completed, and blockage does notoccur. According to the
system and the method, the cycle of excavation of a borehole bottom
sump of a coal mine can be prolonged, so that the labor intensity of workers is lowered, the blockage to the main water pump is reduced, and the downhole
working environment of the coal mine is improved.
