Automation in Longwall Coal Mining - A Review
Coal is an important fossil fuel and will also be for the next decades [1]. The only way to achieve the challenges faced by the coal industry is to reduce production costs by improving productivity. Improvement of productivity has become an important goal for today’s coal industry in the race to increase price competitiveness. In recent years, underground mining method is becoming popular becau...
متن کاملAn Innovative Longwall Mining Technology in Tangshan Coal Mine, China
In mining of inclined coal seams in Tangshan coal mine of Kailuan group, gateways on either end of a panel were both typically located along the floor and a gateway pillar between adjoining panels was left unmined between adjacent panels to ensure stability, thus forming a planar mining system. According to the practice, however, it turned out that this conventional mining system has long-stand...
متن کاملLithosequence of Soils and Associated Vegetation on Subalpine Range of the Wasatch Plateau, Utah
Phosphorus (P) and sulfur (S) in soil and parent material are important in the accumulation of nitrogen (N) and organic carbon (C org ) in soils. In an observational study, the role of P and S in soil development was explored on a small knoll in the Wasatch subalpine summer range of central Utah that had been severely eroded during uncontrolled grazing in the late 1800s. Vegetation, litter, soi...
متن کاملTertiary Minette and Melanephelinite Dikes, Wasatch Plateau, Utah: Records of Mantle Heterogeneities and Changing Tectonics
A swarm of minette and melanephelinite dikes is exposed over 2500 km 2 in and near the Wasatch Plateau, central Utah, along the western margin of the Colorado Plateaus in the transition zone with the Basin and Range province. To date, 110 vertical dikes in 25 dike sets have been recognized. Strikes shift from about N80øW for 24 Ma dikes, to about N60øW for 18 Ma, to due north for 8-7 m.y. These...
متن کاملCoal Bed Discontinuity Effects on the Production of Degasification Boreholes and on Emissions during Longwall Mining
Geological discontinues in the coalbed, such as faults, sandstone channels, permeability facies, lithotype changes, and large scale partings in the coal seam, can cause intermittent production problems or produce unexpected amounts of water or gas from degasification boreholes. These discontinuities not only can impact methane emissions into the mine workings, especially if they hinder proper a...
