    Abstract: A method for extracting gas by fracturing a coal seam through a combination of hydraulic slotting and multi-stage combustion impact wave comprises cutting slots in an impact borehole using a hydraulic slotting equipment to perform pressure relief and permeability enhancement on a coal seam and enlarge a N2 (nitrogen gas) or CO2 (carbon dioxide gas) storage space, injecting a large amount of N2 or CO2 into the borehole by means of a high pressure gas cylinder and a pressure reducing valve through a gas injection and extraction pipe, then injecting a certain amount of methane and dry air into a high-temperature and high-pressure combustion chamber by means of the high pressure gas cylinder and the pressure reducing valve, so that the gases are mixed and combusted to form high-temperature and high-pressure impact wave to push a piston to compress the N2 or CO2, thereby generating a large number of factures on the coal seam around the impact borehole under guiding action of the slots. The impact wave is repeatedly generated to form a multi-stage impact, and the impact of the next stage is based on the impact of the previous stage, so that the fractures on the coal seam around the borehole are further expanded and run through. After the N2 or CO2 is compressed by means of the multi-stage impact, more fracture networks are formed on the coal seam around the borehole under the guiding action of the slots and the fractures, thereby enhancing the borehole-based efficient gas extraction.

    Abstract: A stress-transfer method in tunnel with high ground pressure based on fracturing ring. According to the stress source of the tunnel, fracturing by drilling holes to form artificial weaken zones in surrounding rocks, that's named fracturing ring. The fracturing ring is the weaken zone with some width, whose inner boundary is the protective circle. The fracturing ring with small width is called the cutting and interruption circle and the cutting or interruption arc. The radius of the protective circle is determined by setting a certain width of safety coal pillar barriers at the edge of a support body. The radius of the fracturing ring is determined by the surrounding rock structure and the stress conditions as well as the construction technology. Usually, the higher the stress, the wider the radius of the fracturing ring. The cutting and interruption circle or arc could cut off all of the targeted rock which transmits the stress.

    Abstract: In a method, a gyroscope and an endoscopic camera are first used to investigate coal-seam strike trend, coal-seam dip trend, and coal-seam thickness data of a to-be-extracted area. According to gas extraction standard requirements of a to-be-extracted area, boreholes are then designed and constructed, and trajectories of boreholes are tracked to obtain a correspondence relationship between designed borehole parameters and actual borehole trajectory parameters. Next, drilling parameters are adjusted according to the correspondence relationship between the designed borehole parameters and the actual borehole parameters to construct boreholes at predetermined borehole locations. Subsequently, the boreholes are connected to an extraction pipeline, and gas extraction flow rates and gas extraction amounts per meter of the boreholes are observed. Eventually, other boreholes are designed and constructed according to the adjusted borehole construction parameters and extraction data. After being constructed, the boreholes are connected to perform gas extraction.
