Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of filling the goaf of a mine, and in particular to a gangue backfilling structure and a backfilling method for an underground goaf and slurry used therein. Background Art

[0002] Coal mining produces a large number of goafs, which will bring a series of problems to economic and social development. More than 95% of my country's coal mining is produced by underground mines, and most of them use longwall mining. With the advancement of coal mining technology, the speed of coal mining is increasing day by day, resulting in the continuous expansion of the area of ​​coal goafs and the formation of more and more extensive subsidence areas. The subsidence area will cause great damage to agriculture, industry and the lives of local residents around the mining area, and also restrict the sustainable development of coal mining. In terms of ecological and environmental impact, coal goafs have destroyed the stratum structure, caused the groundwater level to drop, and severely damaged the surface vegetation. Coal mine goafs have destroyed the ecological environment, restricted the sustainable development of the economy and society, and urgently need to be effectively governed.

[0003] Coal mining also produces a large amount of gangue. A large amount of gangue is piled on the surface, occupying a large amount of land, burying and destroying the original landform, making arable land resources more scarce. In addition, a large amount of dust is generated during the discharge of gangue, and toxic substances are generated during the spontaneous combustion process, which leads to slow plant growth and a reduction in plant species, causing serious damage to the ecological environment of the mining area. The sulfide in the gangue generates a large amount of heat when oxidized in the air. When the temperature reaches the ignition point of the gangue, the gangue will spontaneously combust, and the spontaneous combustion of the gangue mountain may last for many years. The spontaneous combustion of gangue produces toxic gases such as sulfur dioxide. The emission of these toxic gases reduces the surrounding air quality, which not only affects the health of surrounding residents but also damages the surrounding ecological environment, causing crop yield reduction or even death.

[0004] Traditional methods of gangue treatment include multiple sorting and refining of rare metal minerals; making bricks, cement and ceramics from gangue; generating electricity from gangue; producing aluminum sulfate from gangue; producing compound fertilizer from gangue, etc. Based on the current research status, coal mining enterprises, as the direct source of gangue, have a very low effective utilization rate of gangue, and most of it is transported to gangue sites for ground disposal, which has little effect on improving the current environmental pollution situation. It is urgent to explore new methods and new ways to utilize solid waste resources to enable the sustainable green development of mines.
