Dust problems in UG coal mines By: Zhi Yang (Alexander)
Outline • Introduction • Definition of coal dust • Types of coal dust • Sources of coal dust in underground coal mines • Influence of coal dust in underground coal mines • How to reduce coal mine dust
Definition of coal dust • Coal dust is a fine powdered form of coal, which is created by the crushing, grinding, or pulverizing of coal. Because of the brittle nature of coal, coal dust can be created during mining, transportation, or by mechanically handling coal.
Types of coal dust 1. Inhalable/Respirable coal dust • Can cause Coal workers' pneumoconiosis (CWP or black lung disease) 2. Flammable coal dust • Can cause explosion
