Abstract: With the acceleration of commercial exploitation of deep-sea minerals, previous research on single collector sea trials is no longer able to meet new requirements, and there is an urgent need to carry out relevant planning and research for overall linkage mining mode. This article aims at the need to develop China’s capabilities for safe and efficient commercial exploitation of deep-sea minerals. It systematically outlines the scale, planning principles, and linkage control requirements of commercial exploitation of deep-sea polymetallic nodules. Four collaborative collection path schemes with multiple collectors are designed, and through comparative analysis, more efficient schemes are selected. Finally, suggestions for the development of deep-sea mining vessels are summarized. The research results can provide ideas for China's subsequent in-situ sea trials and commercial exploitation.

Key words: polymetallic nodules, commercial exploitation, collection path, mining vessel

摘要： 随着深海矿产商业开采进程加快,以往针对采矿车单体海试的研究已无法适应新要求,亟需针对整体联动开采模式开展相关规划研究。该文面向构建我国深海矿产安全高效商业开采能力的需求,系统梳理了深海多金属结核商业开采规模、规划原则和联动控制要求,设计了4种多台采矿车协同采集路径方案,并通过对比分析筛选出效率较高的方案,总结出对深海采矿船的发展建议。研究结果可为我国后续原位海试和商业开采提供思路。
