CCTEG's Intelligent Digital Design for Sustainable Mining

This case study details the design and implementation of the Xinjie Mine No. 2 project by CCTEG Beijing Huayu Engineering Co., Ltd. in Inner Mongolia. The project aims to develop a smart and sustainable coal mining operation, leveraging advanced digital technologies and eco-friendly engineering practices. The mine is designed to have an annual production capacity of 8 million tons over a 30-year period, utilizing intelligent design concepts to minimize carbon emissions and enhance operational efficiency. The integration of Bentley's software for Building Information Modeling (BIM) facilitates a connected data environment, improving design coordination and reducing changes by 26%. The study outlines the challenges faced in coordinating multiple disciplines and the importance of digital twin technology in managing complex processes. It emphasizes the project's contribution to China's goals of carbon peaking and neutrality while promoting lifecycle digital intelligence in coal mining activities.
