en.Wedoany.com Reported - Recently, Shanxi Xishan Coal and Power Group Corporation in China has successfully developed and launched a mine inflow water source identification system. This is the first system of its kind in Shanxi Province, achieving precise identification and intelligent early warning of water sources for mine inflows across the company's 25 coal mines. To address water inrush risks such as Ordovician limestone water during deep mining, Xishan Coal and Power, in collaboration with China University of Mining and Technology, carried out the scientific research project "Construction of Water Hazard Models for Various Mining Areas of Xishan Coal and Power".
The mine inflow water source identification system adopts domestic software and a B/S architecture, integrating data entry, model building, report generation, and SMS early warning. Through comprehensive surveys of 25 production and infrastructure mines, the research team collected and analyzed water quality data from 2023 typical water samples, successfully establishing a dedicated water quality database and three types of water source identification models. The system lowers the professional threshold for personnel, enabling staff without deep hydrochemical backgrounds to accurately identify water sources based on system data. It also standardizes data criteria, solving previous issues of data inconsistency and differing reference backgrounds.
After its launch, the mine inflow water source identification system has built a digital bridge between Xishan Coal and Power's hydrochemical laboratory and mine water prevention and control work. Previously, water sample analysis and manual identification took 7 days; now, the laboratory can complete testing and data entry within 2 hours, with the system instantly determining the water source. Zhao Jinlong, head of the Resource Geology Department at Xishan Coal and Power, stated: "In the past, analyzing a water sample took 7 days, followed by manual identification based on experience, which was time-consuming and labor-intensive. Now, after sampling at the mine, the laboratory can complete the analysis and enter it into the system within 2 hours, and the system can identify the water source instantly." Xishan Coal and Power plans to add heavy metal and trace element detection items in the future to further enhance the identification accuracy of the mine inflow water source identification system.
