The groundwater pollution from different contaminants of coal-mining voids （total hardness, SO4^2-, CI^- and total Fe） and pollution factors transportation situation in the coal rock were simulated by soil column experiment under the conditions of mine water leaching and main water leaching （similar to rainwater leaching）, and the water-rock interaction mechanism was discussed during mine water infiltration through saturated coal rock by application of principle of mass conservation, based on physical properties of coal rock, as well as monitored chemical composition. The results show that, compared with the clear water leaching process, trends of change in pollutant concentrations presented different characteristics in the mine water leaching process. Groundwater is contaminated by the water rock interactions such as migration ＆ accumulation, adsorption ＆ transformation, dissolution ＆ desorption and ion exchange during the mine water permeation. The experiments also suggest that at first dissolution rate of some kinds of dissoluble salts is high, but it decreases with leaching time, even to zero during both the mine water leaching and main water leaching.展开更多

Taking the working face for example; air leakage seepage, nitrogen flow and gas distribution can be described in visual display in nitrogen injection goaf and the oxygen （O2）, carbon monoxide （CO） concentration and temperature distribution, as well as, their change were described in theory during the coal left behind combustion in goaf, which above reveals the complex mechanics course （mechanism） of seepage, diffusion and oxidation heat releasing during coal spontaneous combustion and its restraining. During the calculation, the effect factors of gas springing out and working face advancing were considered fully, and the spontaneous combustion course under different amount of nitrogen injection was simulated. The conclusions were obtained that under nitrogen injection condition, the high spontaneous combustion temperature area lean to the inlet air, but the shape becomes narrower, with the amount of nitrogen rising, the spontaneous combustion period becomes longer till to it does not happen. Meanwhile the nitrogen injection accelerates gas springing out in goaf. The result that turns out in theory simulation fits to practical nitrogen injection.展开更多
