Unorganized sources of inorganic dust emissions. Dust suppression at mining enterprises during coal extraction, transportation, transshipment, and storage

Abstract

Emissions of inorganic dust belong to the group of unorganized emissions that are generated from large areas. Air pollution in the area of coal industry enterprises depends on climatic and mining and geological conditions. The solution of the current mining technical problem of improving the efficiency and safety of mining operations in the development of mineral deposits, which is of great economic and social importance, is inextricably linked with the improvement of methods for fixing dusty surfaces on the objects of the mining complex. Methods of dust suppression are considered and analyzed. Industrial tests of special preventive drugs were carried out and the necessary expenditures of funds and methods of their effective use were determined.
