China's coal mine water production is large,the treatment cost is high,and the comprehensive utilization rate is low.So the realization of coal mine water cost reduction and efficiency increase,zero discharge and efficient utilization is the key to promote green mine ecological construction and high-quality development of coal industry.In order to explore the research status,hot spots and development trends of coal mine water treatment and utilization,the study selects 256 relevant papers in CNKI database from 2003 to September 19,2023 as the research objects,draws a network map of research authors,research institutions and keywords with CiteSpace software,so as to analyze the changing trend of research hotspots in mine water in China.The results show that He Xuwen,Cui Dongfeng and Li Fuqin,etc.are the high-yield authors in the field of coal mine water.The core institutions with high influence are China University of Mining and Technology and China Coal Science and Technology Group.The issuing institutions are mainly the enterprises.The research focus in this field has gradually shifted from primary purification treatment to fractional treatment and advanced treatment.Underground treatment,classification treatment and preheating and low temperature treatment of coal mine wells will become the research hotspots in the future.
