Coal Phase-Out In The Silesian Coal Regions – Building Sustainable Scenario On Past Experiences, Adam Drobniak, Jan Bondaruk, Mirosław Skibski

Journal of Sustainable Mining

The dynamics of phasing out of hard coal mining are currently the subject of many debates and policies programming the energy transition. Diversity of opinions on the speed of the hard coal mining transition is evident. This discourse uses a number of technical, environmental, economic and social arguments that are not always supported by evidence-based analyses. As assumed in the European Green Deal, a responsible approach to decarbonisation requires just transition values. Thus, the negative effects of mining phasing out should be well recognized to enable their mitigation. This applies especially to the Silesian Voivodeship, where the concentration of so-called …

Numerical Simulations Of The Overburden Stability In Underfilling Zones During Continuous Mining And Continuous Backfilling Of Coal Mines, Liu Lang, Luo Yixiao, Zhu Mengbo, He Jun, Qu Huisheng, Duan Huaijun, Wei Baoning, Liu Zhizhen

Coal Geology & Exploration

Objective and Method Coals serve as a predominant energy source in China. However, coal mining has resulted in increasingly pronounced ecological issues such as ground subsidence and solid waste accumulation. Although the continuous mining and continuous backfilling (CMCB) technology allows for efficient resource recovery and ecological protection through backfilling with coal-based solid waste, the issue of insufficient roof-contact backfilling (termed underfilling) poses a serious threat to the overburden stability during mining. Given the unclear mechanisms behind the influence of coupled multiple factors of underfilling zones in current research, this study constructed three-dimensional numerical models using the 3DEC discrete element software …
