Evaluation of Control Effect of Confined Water Hazard in Taiyuan Formation Coal Seam Mining in Huanghebei Coalfield.

The shallow-layer resources in the Huanghebei Coalfield have been depleted, and the deep coal seam of the Taiyuan Formation (lower coal group) is the main continuous resource in mining at this stage. With the annual increase in mining depth, the exploitation of lower coal groups is being met with the influence of high ground stress, high water pressure, high temperature, and strong mining disturbances, as a result of which the threat of water inrush is particularly serious. Based on the grouting data of the coalface floor aquifer, this paper proposes an evaluation method for the control of water rushing into the coalface floor. By comparing the test data with mine electrical exploration data through ArcGIS, the results show that the water pressure threshold based on ArcGIS is twice the water pressure of the grouting reconstruction layer as the optimal solution. The research results can provide a reference for the prevention and control of water inrush in the lower coal group of Huanghebei Coalfield. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
