[0035] The present invention will be further illustrated by the following examples.
[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, a method for protecting coal mining ecological groundwater using nanobubbles includes the following steps:

[0045] 3) When H≥D+M, it is determined as the phreatic water disappearing type;
[0046] Step four: according to the judgment result of step three, corresponding nano-bubble technology is taken for different influence types;
[0047] Specifically, in step four, corresponding nano-bubble technology is taken for different influence types, and the specific steps are as follows:
[0048] 1) Phreatic water rising type:
[0049] By drilling a hole to the ground, the hole depth is greater than h, and a nanobubble generating device is buried in the hole, nanometer oxygen is generated in the nanobubble generating device, and the oxygen content X2 of the explosion is increased, X2=W / N*X1, wherein X1 is the oxygen content of the diving before coal mining, which is obtained by sampling test; the interval of adjacent drill holes is K*I*T, wherein K is the permeability coefficient after diving coal mining, which is obtained by pumping test; I is the hydraulic gradient after coal mining, which is obtained by observing and calculating adjacent drill holes; T is the nanobubble stable time, which is 12-36 hours; the time interval of the nanobubble generating device is a*T, and a is the bubble stability coefficient, which is 0.6-0.9;
[0050] 2) Diving descending type:
[0051] If B-(N-A) is less than or equal to 3 meters, the nanobubble technology is implemented according to the diving ascending type, if B-(N-A) is greater than 3 meters, the following method is adopted: drilling a hole to the ground, the hole depth is greater than h, and a nanobubble generating device is buried in the hole, nanometer hydrogen is generated in the nanobubble generating device, and the nanobubble generating device is operated after the diving surface drops to 3 meters, and the interval of adjacent drill holes is consistent with the ascending type; wherein N is the height of the diving surface from the diving floor before coal mining, which is obtained by drilling columnar diagram; A is the diving descending height, which is obtained by step three; B is the height of the diving floor from the ground before coal mining, which is obtained by drilling columnar diagram;
[0052] 3) Diving disappearance type:

[0054] Step five: after the coal mining adjacent working face, steps one to four are repeated, until the diving aquifer is artificially or naturally repaired, and the above steps are realized to realize the ecological environment protection of coal mining.
[0055] The implementation principle of the application is that the nanobubble has three main characteristics, which correspond to three types of ecological diving protection working conditions:
[0056] First, the nanobubble has good stability and adsorption. Compared with millimeter and micron bubbles, the nanobubble stability is improved by more than 4 orders of magnitude, so it always maintains bubble stability during migration, and can be stored in the coal mining fracture soil for a long time by the capillary guide and adsorption of clay, and can provide water resources for vegetation after the bubble explosion, and is not easy to cause large-scale loss, so as to improve the utilization rate of water resources, and is particularly suitable for the type of disappearing groundwater.
[0057] Second, the nanobubble can greatly reduce the density of water-gas mixture after adding hydrogen and other light gases, thereby effectively lifting the water level, and the lifted water level can effectively offset the problem of the decline of the phreatic water level caused by coal mining, so as to protect the ecological water level with a depth of 1.5-3 meters as the target, and is particularly suitable for the case where the buried depth is greater than the ecological suitable phreatic water level in the type of descending groundwater.
[0058] Third, the nanobubble can release a large amount of hydroxyl radicals and oxygen when it explodes, which can provide oxygen for the vegetation submerged by water and kill harmful bacteria, and is particularly suitable for the type of ascending groundwater.
[0059] In specific implementation:
[0060] The ecological environment of a certain coal mine is fragile, and the decline of the phreatic water level caused by coal mining has affected the local ecological environment. In the past, the method of reducing the coal mining height was used, which caused a large amount of waste of coal resources. Therefore, the present technology is used to protect the phreatic water as much as possible on the basis of mining coal resources, and the specific implementation is as follows:
[0061] Step one: using the water-conducting fracture zone prediction method to predict the development height H of the water-conducting fracture zone;
[0062] In the formula, m=4 meters, n=1, and at this time H=61.44 meters;
[0063] Step two: calculating the development depth h of the surface ground fissure;
[0064] In the formula, c=69 kPa, which is the cohesion of the surface soil, obtained through soil mechanics experiment; is the internal friction angle of the surface soil, obtained through soil mechanics experiment; and γ=17.0 kN / m3 is the unit weight of the surface soil, obtained through soil mechanics experiment. At this time, h=14.32 meters;
[0065] Step three: determining the influence type of coal mining on the phreatic water;
[0066] Combined with the distance D=44.69 meters between the phreatic water underlying aquiclude and the mined coal seam, the thickness M=40.66 meters of the aquiclude, and the relationship with H, it is determined to be the type of descending groundwater:
[0067] When D=44.69<H=61.44<D+M=85.35, it is determined as diving type, diving height A=N x (H-D) / M=16 x 16.75 / 40.66=6.59 meters, N=16 meters, the height of the water table before mining from the water table floor;
[0068] Step four: according to the judgment result of step three, take the corresponding nano bubble accumulated water;
[0069] Since B-(N-A)=18-9.41=8.59>3 meters, the following method is adopted: drilling from the ground to the underground, the drilling depth is 15 meters, the nano bubble generating device is buried in the drilling, the nano hydrogen gas is aerated in the device, the aeration is carried out until the water table after mining is 2 meters deep from the ground, the time interval of the operation of the nano generating device is after the water table drops to 3 meters, the spacing of adjacent drillings is consistent with the rising type; wherein N=16 meters, the height of the water table before mining from the water table floor, obtained by drilling columnar diagram; A=6.59 meters, the diving height, obtained by step three; B=18 meters, the height of the water table floor from the ground, obtained by drilling columnar diagram;
[0070] Step five: repeat steps 1-4 after coal mining in adjacent working face, until the artificial restoration of the water table is stopped, the above steps are implemented to realize the ecological environment protection of coal mining.
[0071] Since it is not necessary to reduce coal mining, about 400,000 tons of coal resources are mined in each working face, at the same time, the local ecological environment is protected, and the contradiction between coal mining and ecological environment protection is effectively solved.
