RESEARCH ON GREEN DEVELOPMENT OF COAL INDUSTRY BASED ON ECOLOGICAL CIVILIZATION

Although China owns large coal reserves, it now faces the problem of depletion of its coal resources in advance. The coal-based energy mix in China will not change in the short term, and a means of delaying the coal resources depletion is therefore urgently required. The green development of coal industry was exploited first and was evaluated as commercially valuable. On this basis, a discussion concerning the impacts on the delay of China's coal depletion, development of coal exploitation and sustainable developments, as well as technologies and relevant policies, were presented. It is considered that green development of coal industry can effectively delay China's coal depletion, inhibit the construction of new mines, redress the imbalance between supply and demand of coal in eastern China, improve the mining area environment and guarantee social stability.
