Abstract：In order to solve the permeability improved and reconstruction technology of the coal reservoir faced to the coal bed methane high efficient development and the mine gas control,a new technology of the intensity,regional function and multi function controlled electric pulse controllable shock waves was successfully researched and developed and several site application discoveries were conducted.The coal reservoir was reconstructed by the shock waves with the breaking,tearing,elastic sonic wave turbulence and other method.The shock waves would have the sectional and frequency band basic features,the basic features combined with the repeated loading fatigue effect could make the controllable shock waves with the incomparable advantages than other reservoir reconstruction technologies.The reconstruction effect would depend on the coupling features of the shock amplitude value,loading frequency and coal reservoir physical properties,the coupling role of the shock amplitude value and seam physical properties would decide the propagation features of the shock waves in the seam and the coupling of the loading frequency and coal reservoir physical properties would be related to the fatigue effect of the coal reservoir.An underground mine operation device of the electric pulse controllable shock waves was innovated and a completed site operation technical process was preliminarily formed.The site experiments showed the benefit and efficiency of the technology in the reconstruction of the borehole along the seam and the gas drainage and the conceivable prospects of the coal reservoir reconstruction for the coal bed methane well at the surface ground.
