Abstract

Due to its excellent effect of surface subsidence reduction, the overburden-separation grouting (OSG) technology has been widely applied to green mining. However, OSG changes the mine pressure, and the resultant gas emission in the stope remains unclear. Therefore, with the 22301 working face of Tunlan Coal Mine as an example, the overburden deformation and stress distribution in the absence and presence of OSG were studied through numerical simulation and on-site tests. Furthermore, the gas emission law in the stope was contrastingly analyzed. The following results were obtained. With the rise of grouting pressure (GP), the subsidence of strata above the separation layer decreases while that below the separation layer increases; the heave displacement of floor strata below the coal seam gradually decreases. OSG significantly changes the geometric shape and range of the overburden stress relief zone. As the GP rises, the gas enrichment area moves downward continuously and shrinks spatially. Horizontally, the ranges of the stress relief zone and the free space in the goaf shrink, while the range and compaction degree of the compaction area gradually grow. After OSG, the total amount of gas emission in the working face falls by 52.2%.
