Detection and prevention of spontaneous combustionSujit Surendran
"Coal Mining Industry has faced heavy losses due to spontaneous combustion of coal. The paper here presents the history , Literature review and attempts made to mitigate and detect it in India.
Spontaneous combustion of coal is caused by its auto-oxidation reaction with oxygen when exposed to air, generating heat. If this heat is not dissipated, the coal's temperature will rise until it ignites. Several theories explain the mechanism, but it is generally accepted that coal absorbs oxygen physically at low temperatures, forming complexes that decompose and oxidize, releasing more heat. Factors like coal type, temperature, moisture, and oxygen availability affect whether combustion occurs. Coal mine fires have occurred historically around the world and continue to cause safety, economic and environmental issues.
This document provides an overview of blasting in open cast mines, including the various types of explosives used. It discusses low explosives like gunpowder as well as high explosives like nitroglycerin, dynamite, ANFO, LOX, slurry, and emulsion explosives. The advantages and disadvantages of each type are outlined. The document also discusses the use of bulk explosives and various bulk delivery systems. Key conditions for safely using bulk explosives on site are described.
This document discusses methods for preventing and controlling spontaneous combustion of coal seams. It begins by defining spontaneous combustion as the self-heating of coal or other carbonaceous matter resulting in ignition without external heat. Factors that can lead to spontaneous combustion include the rank, temperature, and available air of the coal as well as geological and mining conditions. Early symptoms include a faint haze and odors, while later stages produce stronger odors. Detection methods include indirect monitoring of gases like radon and direct measurement of temperature and gases. Control methods include using chemical extinguishers, applying water, infusing inert materials, sealing fires, and adjusting ventilation. Advancements in technology are still needed to better apply these prevention and control techniques.
Develpoment and extraction of coal pillar by continuousShubham Agrawal

Different types of continuous miners are also outlined along with their main parts and how they can be used to extract pillars in an efficient, continuous process.
Methane (CH4) is commonly known as firedamp in coal mines. There are three primary reasons for giving special attention to methane: 1) it is the gas most commonly found in underground coal mines, 2) it has caused more explosions and loss of life than any other cause in mining history, and 3) continued development of methane drainage technology. Methane is formed during the coalification process from decaying organic material and becomes trapped within coal seams. When coal is mined, methane can be released through gradual exudation, gas blowers, or violent outbursts. Due to its light weight, methane also has a tendency to form layers near mine ceilings, which can become explosive if ignition occurs.
Longwall mining is a major method of underground coal extraction worldwide. In India, coal accounts for over 50% of energy production, though most is still extracted via opencast mines. Longwall mining was introduced to India in the 1970s but has seen limited improvement and adoption since. Key longwall equipment includes powered roof supports, shearers, conveyors, and monitoring is important for strata control and safety. Organizing longwall panels and transferring equipment between panels is a complex operation involving dismantling, transport and reassembly of machinery.

Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoringIJECEIAES
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.

7. DUST MONITORING
GRAVIMETRIC SAMPLING
Air is passed through a filter, the filter is then weighed to
determine the amount the particulate matter collected
High volume air samplers typically sample more than 1500 cubic
metres (m3) of air over a 24-hour period, while low volume air
samplers draw through only 24m3 of air, or less
The inlet removes particles larger than 10µm by using their
inertia to trap them on a greased plate, while smaller particles
pass through the instrument onto the pre-weighed filter
Frequency of Sampling:
• Fugitive dust (SPM & RPM) shall be monitored at all the locations
for 8 hourly basis in any working shift at least once in a month other
than monsoon.
• Ambient air quality monitoring shall be monitored as per the
National Ambient Air Quality Standards i.e. twice in week at each
location for 24 hourly at uniform intervals so that minimum 104
measurements can be taken in a year.
8. DUST CONTROL
CONTROL PRACTICES
Dust consolidation- Dust consolidation is normally practiced for settled dust which
becomes airborne in favourable condition e.g. haul roads of open cast mines
Dust capture- Dust collection or capture is resorted to when it is airborne. In these cases
dust is collected close to its source of generation for effective result and therefore the
method is useful for controlling dust generated in localised spaces or point sources like
drilling, blasting, crusher house and conveyor transfer points with the help of special
types of dust capture arrangement.
Control Methods can be classified into two categories:
• Generalized Method: No changes to the existing mining method is required
• Specialized Method: Changes to basic unit of operation is required
9. General Dust control Methods
• Land Clearing & Top Soil Removal:
Control options during mining, loading and dumping of topsoil and overburden are generally
limited to dust suppression by watering. Scheduling these activities to coincide with favourable
winds and weather conditions may be option.
• Drilling and Blasting:
Watering of the blast area following the charging of blast holes with explosives may help.
Another method that can be effective in protecting areas adjacent to the mine from dust
pollution is to avoid blasting under unfavourable wind and atmospheric conditions.
• Waste Rock Dumps:
a) It is desirable to plan the waste dump rehabilitation to occur as early as possible in the life of the
mine.Establishing the final faces of waste dumps early and revegetating these surfaces will
significantly reduce wind erosion.
b) Dry exposed tailings can be a problem in climates with strong seasonal rainfall. It needs
appropriate planning and design of the impoundment and the associated water circuit in order to
accommodate seasonal events.
c) Alternative methods which still offer long term dust mitigation include the in situ inducement of
permanent crusts that are resistant to erosion.
10. General Dust control Methods(cont.)
• Transportation:
Fugitive dust emissions are produced by
the contact of the tyres with the unsealed
road surface and are affected by the total
distance travelled
• Applying water, or a mixture of water
and chemical for dust suppression on
mine haul roads,
• Compaction & gradation and drainage
on both sides of haul roads
• Chemical treatment of permanent road
• Proper maintenance of transport
vehicles
11. General Dust control Methods(cont.)
• Processing, Crushing and Screening:
Source: Methods:
• Plant Equipment
• Dump Hopper
• Conveyers
• Storage Stockpiles
Dust Proofing
Three sided, roofed sheds for truck
dumping, with low volume high
pressure adjustable water atomising
sprays actuated at the time of
dumping.
Sprays at transfer points to wet dust
and
particles and prevent liberation,
mist/fog
systems to increase fall out rates.
Fixed water cannons, or vehicular
based
sprays for small stock piles. Drainage
often required at stockpile base and
foundations.
12. Specialized Dust control Methods
1) MEASURES FOR DRILLING
a) DUST ARRESTER- Up to a few hundred kilograms of broken dust is generated from each drill hole. The
dust is finer than what is formed in other mining operations and contains a significant proportion of respirable dust.
The dust arrester is a rectangular box with a ring shaped foam cushion washer at the top, a collar base plate with
a cushioned bottom, and a large opening on one side to which a specially shaped long and tough filter bag is
attached. For dust collection, drilling is carried out through this device
13. Specialized Dust control Methods(cont.)
b) WET DRILLING-
Water will flow through water hose from the water tank and finally will be discharged into the air delivery pipe. The
pressurised air will carry the atomised water inside the delivery pipe through Rotary Head Drill pipes and will
finally discharge through the Drill bit inside the hole. Dust generated due to the cutting action of the drill bit will be
suppressed by the spray of water inside the hole itself. As a result there will be no air borne dust near the drill.
14. Specialized Dust control Methods(cont.)
2) Blasting
a) Split Charge Blasting techniques with Air Decking by Gas:
Melinikov has suggested that air decks provide a mechanism by which a secondary stress wave can be readily
and inexpensively generated. The theory postulates that shock wave reflections within the hole produce a
secondary stress wave which extends micro fractures network prior to gas pressurisation. According to Melnikov,
Air decks reduce the final hole pressure produced by the explosive products but increases the duration of their
action on the rock (Air deck do not affect the detonation pressure of the explosives)

3) In-Pit Crushing and Conveyor
Transport System-
The main benefits of switching from off-
highway trucks to an in-pit crushing
system with conveyor haulage are:
• Smaller loading machines can be used;
• Less auxiliary equipment(Less dump
trucks)
• Reduced fuel costs;
• Environment friendly.
17. Case Study-Iron Ore Mines-Eastern
Zone(Odisha, Jharkhand)
Iron Ore mining in the area is being done by opencast method and is a combination of both
large mechanised mining by SAIL, TISCO, IISCO & OMC and small manual and semi mechanised mining by
private mine owners. There are around 82 operating iron ore mines in the state of Orissa and 20 operating
mines in the state of Jharkhand.
The major air pollution in this region is due to generation of dust from the movement of small private dumpers
carrying iron ore lumps from the small privately owned mine to common crushers, which are invariable of dry type
crushing and screening without any environmental protective measures. The small mining companies are mainly
using the public road as the haul road and the dumpers are observed to be running mostly in overloaded condition.
The dumpers are not covered either and the spillage of the material and repeated crushing on the roads by the
truck movement add to the dust generation. The nearby villagers are most affected and these dust forms thick
slurry after the first monsoon rains and add to the water pollution in the area. However the bigger mining
companies are using better air pollution control and management practices like wet drilling, water sprinkling at the
mine haul road, water spraying at the hopper of the crusher plants, mist spraying at the fines dumps and using
covered conveyors and thereby minimizing dust dispersion to the nearby residential areas.
