[0035] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0036] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The present invention provides a method for mining coal with double lanes in a pre-filled replacement section coal pillar, comprising the following steps:

[0037] S1: Transport uphill 1 and track uphill 2 are arranged along the dip in the coal seam;

[0038] S2: Pre-dig a first filling working face track chute 4, a first filling working face transport chute 5, a second filling working face track chute 7, and a second filling working face transport chute 8 of a preset length (30-50 m) into the coal seam, and after penetrating the transport chute and the track chute, form a first filling working face 6 and a second filling working face 9 respectively;

[0039] S3: The first filling working face 6 and the second filling working face 9 are mined simultaneously to form a goaf 10. When the working faces advance a preset distance (60 to 80 m), a cementing filling slurry 11 is filled in the goaf;

[0040] S4: After the two goafs are filled, the first filling working face transport chute 5 and the second filling working face track chute 7 are connected to form a first long wall working face 12, and the first long wall working face 12 is mined;

[0041] The first filling working face 6 and the second filling working face 9 are mined by pre-digging the first filling working face track chute 4, the first filling working face transport chute 5 and the second filling working face track chute 7 and the second filling working face transport chute 8 of preset length, the goaf 10 is filled with cementitious filling slurry 11, and then the first longwall working face 12 is mined, thereby eliminating the traditional section protection coal pillar, helping to control the manifestation of mine pressure on the working face, improving the recovery rate of coal resources, and enhancing the economic benefits of coal mining enterprises.

[0042] Furthermore, the first mining and filling working face is defined as the first filling working face 6, and multiple filling working faces are defined along the working face advancement direction, namely the second filling working face 9, the third filling working face 15, ..., the Nth filling working face.

[0043] Further, the longwall working surface between the first filling working surface 6 and the second filling working surface 9 is defined as the first longwall working surface 12, and multiple longwall working surfaces are defined along the mining direction as the second longwall working surface, the third longwall working surface, ..., the Nth longwall working surface.

[0044] Furthermore, the length of the pre-excavated trenches of the first filling working face 6 and the second filling working face 9 is consistent with the width of the uphill protective coal pillar 3 .

[0045] Furthermore, the width of the upper mountain protection coal pillar 3 reserved is 30 - 50 m.

[0046] In an embodiment of the present invention, when simultaneously mining and backfilling the first backfilling working face 6 and the second backfilling working face 9, it further includes:

[0047] Carrying out roadway retaining work on the first backfilling working face haulage gateway 5 and the second backfilling working face track gateway 7 on both sides of the goaf 10;

[0048] Installing a closed baffle in the goaf 10 and removing the closed baffle after the cemented filling slurry 11 solidifies.

[0049] In an embodiment of the present invention, when forming the first longwall working face 12 by connecting the first backfilling working face haulage gateway 5 and the second backfilling working face track gateway 7 and carrying out mining, it further includes:

[0050] While forming the first longwall working face 12, connecting the third backfilling working face track gateway 13 and the third backfilling working face haulage gateway 14 to form the third backfilling working face 15, and simultaneously mining the first longwall working face 12 and the third backfilling working face 15.

[0051] Subsequently, according to the advancing direction of the working face, successively mining the fourth backfilling working face, …, the Nth backfilling working face and the second longwall working face, the third longwall working face, …, the Nth longwall working face until the coal seam mining is completed.

[0052] Furthermore, in the present invention, the first backfilling working face 6, the second backfilling working face 9, the third backfilling working face 15, and the first longwall working face 12 all adopt the "U"-type ventilation method during mining, with simple roadway layout and relatively easy maintenance.

[0053] In an embodiment of the present invention, the mining method of the first backfilling working face 6, the second backfilling working face 9, and the third backfilling working face 15 is the advancing mining method, and its width is 50 - 150 m.

[0056] In an embodiment of the present invention, the raw materials of the cemented filling slurry 11 mainly include coal-based solid waste after heavy metal reduction pretreatment.

[0057] The coal-based solid waste is one or a mixture of two of coal gangue and fly ash.

[0058] First, select coal gangue, fly ash and other coal-based solid wastes as the main filling raw materials, crush and screen them, then add chemical stabilizers and stir well to perform pretreatment on reducing and solidifying heavy metals in the coal-based solid wastes, ensuring zero risk of underground environmental pollution after filling and solving the potential environmental pollution problems after the filling treatment of coal-based solid wastes.

[0059] Then, mix the solid wastes such as coal gangue and fly ash after the pretreatment of heavy metal reduction with water in a certain proportion, add curing agents such as cement or slag powder and auxiliary materials such as glass fiber, retarder and accelerator, and make the cemented filling slurry 11 after sufficient stirring.

[0060] Specifically, the purpose of adding curing agents such as cement or slag powder is to prevent heavy metals from migrating or dissolving in the environment and increase the strength of the filling body; adding glass fiber can improve the mechanical properties of the slurry; by adjusting the mass ratio of the accelerator and the retarder, the rheological properties of the slurry can be optimized and the transportation efficiency can be improved.
