In the late 1990s, despite years of efforts to understand and reduce coal worker's
pneumoconiosis (CWP) prevalence from more than 30% in 1970 to less than 4.2%, the level …

Ventilation and dust removal is the most basic means of dust prevention in mines. In the
paper, a highly simulated physical model of the goaf and multiple dust sources were …

The European Union (EU) countries, as one of the most economically developed regions in
the world, are taking increasingly decisive actions to reduce the emission of harmful …

The United States has witnessed a concerning surge in the incidence of diseases like Coal

We focus on a comparison of the geochemistry and mineralogy patterns found in coal,
deposited dust (DD), respirable deposited dust (RDD) and inhalable suspended dust …

The paper discusses the results of a study carried out to determine the thermal condition of a
conveyor power unit using a thermal imaging camera. The tests covered conveyors in the …

The risk of a coal burst rises with the excavation depth and other mining-related activities.
These devastating coal burst activities are a major concern during deep coal mining. During …

There is plenty of research on the environmental effects of coal mining. However, the
economic valuation of health costs is seldom addressed. To know this, we have estimated …
