Abstract

With the fast development of Chinese economy in recent years, China has become the largest coal production and consumption country in the world. Correspondingly, it has produced large quantities of mining waste including coal gangue, coal sludge, fly-ash, coal mine drainage and coal-bed methane (CBM) that are hazardous to the soil, air, and water. Based on the theory and practice of sustainable development and recycling economy, the paper will discuss and analyze the mining waste management in Jincheng Anthracite Mining Group, Shanxi Province, where they have found the paths to realize the mining waste reusing and recycling in colliery. They had established many green industrial chains in the mining waste treatment: the gangue piles turned into man-made eco-park, gangue used for power generation, fly-ash used in the building material, the coal mining water reused and recycled in closed pipelines, the CBM extracted for home-burning and electricity generation, etc. The coal mining waste has been converted into wealth and played more and more important roles in many fields. The practice indicated that these patterns can be applied in other coal mines.
