Abstract. Annotation. The article presents analysis of modern geotechnological methods of methane extractionfrom coal and technogeneous deposits. Special attention is focused on underground and surface methods of complex development of resource, which are concentrated in the gas-saturated coal-rock mass, in filled rock dumps and sludge accumulators of coal-processing factories. Geotechnological methods of methane extraction convert deposit development to a new quality leve, which provides interconnection between full extraction of mineral resources, improvement of labor safety and environmental, economic and social conditions in the mining regions. The work describes physical and mechanical methods of gas-coal mass development, which take into account constant changes of stress-strain state in zone near the borehole, contributing to the intensified gas escaping. Further, several variants of physical and chemical methods are proposed for thermal treatment of solid carbon-containing raw materials, which are considered as a binary mixture of coal and rock, in oxygen-free medium and with the use of oxidants. The article presents results of researches of catalytic transformations occurred in the coal structure; the findings help to optimize composition of the gas phase, decrease oxidant consumption and increase specific productivity of thermal process without increasing the temperature. Various ways of use of catalysts in the processes of physical and chemical transformations of coal are also proposed. The conducted researches allows to analyze existing methods of impact on the mine medium, specify their advantages and disadvantages and identify the most promising directions for development of new methods in the field of geotechnological processes of methane extraction from coaland technogeneous deposits.
Keywords: Keywords: physical impact, thermal impact, gas-coal mass, carbon-containing materials, geotechnology, methane.
