Book Description
The U.S. Bureau of Mines, in cooperation with the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) and the mining industry, has identified and demonstrated the effectiveness of several improved face ventilation techniques for longwall mining systems. These include the following: identifying improved techniques for measuring face ventilation parameters on longwall sections, installing curtains at the intake end of the longwall face to maximize usage of the primary airflow, identifying optimum face airflow rates for maximizing dilution effects, and coursing the primary face intake from tailgate to headgate to minimize outby airflow contamination. Application of these techniques throughout the mining industry should reduce the health hazard associated with excessive exposure to respirable coal mine dust.

ISBN:
Category : Coal mines and mining
Languages : en
Pages : 24
Book Description
In 1974, technical personnel from the Department of the Interior's Mining Enforcement and Safety Administration visited the United Kingdom to discuss and observe procedures used to assess and control respirable dust generated during underground coal mining operatons. This report discusses the dust control practices and trends in research that have potential application in the United States.

Coal Mine Dust
Author: Patrick Fitzhugh
Publisher: Nova Science Publishers
ISBN: 9781624170973
Category : Coal dust
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Book & CD. Coal mine dust is one of the most serious occupational hazards in the coal mining industry, and overexposure can cause coal workers' pneumoconiosis (CWP) and a number of other lung diseases, collectively referred to a black lung disease. CWP has been the underlying or contributing cause of death for more than 75,000 coal miners since 1968. This book provides an overview of key studies, background history and health reviews on occupational exposure to respirable coal mine dust.
