Ground Development Technology And Engineering Application Of Cbm In Coal Mine Goafs： A Case Study Of Jincheng Mining Area In Qinshui Basin, Zhou Xianjun, Li Guofu, Li Chao, Wang Zheng, Li Jiangbiao
Coal Geology & Exploration
There are still rich CBM resources in goafs after coal mining, and the resource evaluation, development and utilization have dual significance of environmental protection and resources. In recent years, ground drilling has been actively explored in Jincheng, Xishan and Yangquan mining areas in Shanxi Province to extract CBM in the goafs. However, in the process of ground development of CBM, due to water accumulation in the goafs, confined water gushing from overlying strata and other reasons, there is no gas production or low gas extraction from ground drilling. Taking Yuecheng Coal Mine in Jincheng, Shanxi as an example, this paper …

Failure Analysis Of Deep Coal Seam Floor Considering Strain Softening Of Surrounding Rock And Formation Contact In Goaf, Yin Shangxian, Meng Haopeng, Qian Shuangbin
Coal Geology & Exploration
In order to study the failure mode of the floor in deep coal seam mining, we proposed a FLAC3D finite difference numerical method considering the strain softening of surrounding rock and the contact of goafs .Through the qualitative analysis of Rankine’s earth pressure theory, the failure of the deep coal seam floor is studied based on the measured water conducting fracture zone of the floor in working face 2023 of Linxi Mine. The results show that the mechanical state of surrounding rock after plastic failure can be described more accurately by using the strain-softening constitutive relationship instead of the …

Coal Geology & Exploration
In order to explore whether the new pipe curtain freezing method can effectively strengthen the river embankment, this paper uses the finite element software to study the application of the new pipe curtain freezing method in anti-seepage and embankment reinforcement based on the temperature field, and sets up four analysis paths to deeply analyze the basic situation of the frozen soil curtain and the freezing effect characteristics of each path. The results show that the frozen soil curtain spreads around after it is formed at the freezing pipe. From the 8th day, the development of the frozen soil curtain on …

Transformative Ecoliteracy Development In Postsecondary Education: Cultivating Intentional Relationships Through Garden-Based Learning, Shevawn Armstrong
Dissertations and Theses
Education can play a critical role in empowering learners to address the global, complex, and interconnected sustainability problems humanity currently faces. Ecoliteracy, as an educational aim, may support the cultivation of values, attitudes, and skills required for the development of sustainability solutions and our collective ability to design regenerative ways of living. However, empirical research that explores and supports the development of ecoliteracy in adults is limited. This grounded theory action research study aimed to contribute to this body of knowledge. This study explored how adult ecoliteracy and practical gardening skills may be cultivated through an intentionally designed, holistic, garden-based …

Eefficient Fracturing Technology And Fine Drainage System Of Ultra-Deep Coalbed Methane In Southeast Chongqing：A Case Study Of Ny1 Well, Fang Dazhi, Cheng Zehu, Li Jiaxin
Coal Geology & Exploration
According to the results of China’s new round of coalbed methane (CBM) resource evaluation, the CBM development mainly focuses on medium and shallow coal seams, and the geological conditions of deep-ultra deep coal reservoirs are more complicated. Thus, the reservoir fracturing technology and drainage management technology are two major factors in the development of CBM wells for deep coal reservoirs. In the area of southeast Chongqing, the coal seam of Longtan Formation is as deep as nearly 2 000 m, and there is no experience in ultra-deep CBM well development in this area. The NYI well is taken as an …

Coal Geology & Exploration
The identification of the burning temperature of burnt rocks has important guiding significance for the formation and evolution of burnt rocks. Based on the thermal Kaiser effect, the threshold temperature of burnt rock in Zhangjiamao, Shenmu, Northern Shaanxi Province is predicted through the acoustic emission (AE) acumulated energy and the changes of parameters RA (rise time/amplitude) and AF (average frequency) during heat treatment. The results show that the thermoacoustic emission characteristics of burnt rocks can effectively identify the burning temperature of burnt rocks, and it is basically consistent with the petrographic analysis of the temperature experienced by the burnt rocks. …

Impact Of The Ban On Illegal Mining Activities On Raw Water Quality: A Case-Study Of Konongo Water Treatment Plant, Ashanti Region Of Ghana, Sadique Anyame Bawa, Prince Antwi-Agyei, Martin Kyereh Domfeh
Journal of Sustainable Mining
The Government of Ghana prohibited Artisanal and Small-Scale Mining (ASM) operations from 2017 to 2018 as part of its strategy to address the socio-environmental issues caused by illegal mining activities, also referred to as “galamsey” operations. This study assessed the trend in the water quality of raw water abstracted at the Konongo Water Treatment Plant (WTP) for treatment before and after implementing the ban on “galamsey” operations. The main source of raw water for the Konongo WTP is the Anuru River. Secondary data on physicochemical water quality from 2006 to 2019 was sourced from the Konongo WTP and the Ashanti …

Improved Methodology For Monitoring The Impact Of Mining Activities On Socio-Economic Conditions Of Local Communities, Binay Prakash Pandey, Devi Prasad Mishra
Journal of Sustainable Mining
Mining activities can cause tangible socio-economic improvements in the surrounding regions. Such potential has not been fully realized, owing to the fact that the socio-economic impact assessment processes exercised in India merely predict the footprint of industrial activity on the surrounding population. Consequently, project proponents are mandated to implement a management plan in cases of foreseeable negative consequences. However, both, the assessment study, as well as the process of implementation of a management plan, are riddled with significant gaps and limitations. Primary data collected for this research makes it apparent that, in comparison to the revenue generated from the mining …

Master's Projects and Capstones
Information technology companies contribute to greenhouse gas emissions via data servers, office administrative operations, and manufacturing of hardware components. Corporate Social Responsibility programs are a voluntary method of tracking and reducing negative environmental impacts. The 2019 Corporate Social Responsibility data from four Bay Area (California, USA) information technology companies (Adobe, Cisco, Salesforce, and Nvidia) all listed in sustainable index funds were compared to determine best reporting standards. The data analysis also allowed for research into how carbon emissions are categorized and reported on, and which emissions companies pay attention to through Corporate Social Responsibility projects. The physical ownership responsibility for …

A Proper Borehole Pattern Design For Coal Seam Methane Drainage In Tabas Coal Mine Using Comsol Multiphysics, Ali Bagherzadeh, Mehdi Najafi, Mohammad Fatehi Marji, Mehdi Noroozi
Journal of Sustainable Mining
Optimizing the operational parameters of the borehole pattern in the coal seam includes the maximum amount of gas to be drained with the least amount of drilling, investment, and drainage time. The main purpose of this research is to properly design the drainage borehole pattern in the C1 coal seam of the Tabas coal mine. In this research, the Comsol Multiphysics software was used for numerical modeling of the boreholes. According to the method of diffusion of methane gas in a coal seam, the reduction of methane gas concentration and the amount of gas released from the coal blocks were …

Flow-biota Interaction and Natural Infrastructure Design
Mangrove forest sustainability hinges upon propagule recruitment and seedling retention. This study evaluates biophysical limitations to mangrove seedling persistence by measuring anchoring force of two mangrove species (Rhizophora mangle and Avicennia germinans). Anchoring force was measured in 362 seedlings via lateral pull-tests administered in mangrove forests of two subtropical estuaries and in laboratory-based experiments. Removal mechanism varied with seedling age: newly-established seedlings failed due to root pull-out while seedlings older than 3 months failed by root breakage. Anchoring force of R. mangle seedlings was consistently and significantly greater than A. germinans (GLM: p = 0.002), however force to …
