This book addresses the hazard of gas explosions in sealed
underground coal mines, and how the risk of explosion can be
assessed, modeled, and mitigated. With this text, coal mine
operators and managers will be able to identify the risks that lead
to underground mine gas explosions, and implement practical
strategies to optimize mining safety for workers. In six chapters,
the book offers a framework for understanding the sealed coal mine
atmosphere, the safety characteristics that are currently in place,
and the guidelines to be followed by engineers to improve upon
these characteristics. The first part of the book describes the
importance and characteristics of underground gas mine explosions
in a historical context with data showing the high number of
fatalities from explosion incidents, and how risk has been
mitigated in the past. Chapters also detail mathematical models and
explosibility diagrams for determining and understanding the risk
factors involved in mine explosions. Readers will also learn about
safety operations, and assessments for the sealed mine atmosphere.
With descriptions of chapter case studies, mining engineers and
researchers will learn how to apply safety measures in underground
coal mines to improve mining atmospheres and save lives.
