Soil moisture is a critical parameter for land reclamation and ecological restoration in mining subsidence areas. However, limited research has been conducted into the impact of subsidence on soil moisture in semi-arid areas. In this study, the subsidence and soil moisture of four coal seams (4101 and 4102 coal seams are 2-year and 1 …
Excessive coal moisture leads to a lower heating value and power plant efficiency, and increased transportation costs. Therefore, coal stockpile management and moisture control are particularly important in …
There are four major types (or "ranks") of coal. Rank refers to steps in a slow, natural process called "coalification," during which buried plant matter changes into an ever denser, drier, more carbon-rich, and harder material. The four ranks are: Anthracite: The highest rank of coal. It is a hard, brittle, and black lustrous coal, often referred to as hard coal, …
Stone dusters are required for all Australian underground mines. They spray stone dust to encapsulate coal dust, preventing explosions. CR's Razer stone dusting systems have been relied on for years by top tier miners. Our stone dusters just work, with minimal moving parts or breakdown issues, even in the harshest underground environments.
Soil water content is an important variable in hydrology and many related disciplines. It affects runoff from precipitation, groundwater recharge, and evapotranspiration.
As the depth of coal seam mining increases, coal and gas outburst prevention and control face unprecedented challenges. In recent years, freezing …

Prompt : Caesar is a famous mining equipment manufacturer well-known both at home and abroad, major in producing stone crushing equipment, mineral separation equipment, limestone grinding equipment, etc.
The coal development zone of Northern Shaanxi, China is one of the eight largest coal mines in the world, also the national energy and chemical bases. However, the coal mining leads to ground surface deformation and previous studies show that in collapse fissure zone soil water losses almost 50% compared with non-fissure zone. The main objective of this …
Pyrite has a significant effect on the spontaneous combustion of coal. The presence of pyrite can change the propensity of coal towards spontaneous combustion. The influences of various pyrite contents on the parameters of spontaneous combustion, such as index gases, temperature and released heat etc., were investigated in this study. Coal …
Soil porosity and moisture are critical indicators of soil quality. In coal–grain intercropping areas, centuries of coal industry activities have resulted in coal particle contamination, …
Coal rank is defined by several parameters throughout the rank range, from heating value and moisture in lower rank coal (lignite and subbituminous), to volatile matter/fixed carbon and total carbon (proximate and ultimate analyses) in high and medium volatile bituminous rank coal through, at least, semi-anthracite, and hydrogen and X-ray ...
Request PDF | Experimental study on the effect of inherent moisture on hard coal adsorption–desorption characteristics | Coal is a complex geological body that is composed of organic material ...
Coal is a black or brownish-black sedimentary rock that can be burned for fuel and used to generate electricity.It is composed mostly of carbon and hydrocarbons, which contain energy that can be released through combustion (burning). Coal is the largest source of energy for generating electricity in the world, and the most abundant fossil fuel …
The current study investigated the impact of coal mining on deep soil moisture from the perspective of the absolute value of soil moisture. A combined …
moisture range of long-flame coal is 3–12%, whereas the moisture in anthracite is lower (Tang et al. 2015; Wang et al. 2014a; Yu and Cheng 2012). The presence of different inherent moistures will occupy the gas adsorption sites of coal and the channel of gas migration and diffusion, which determines the coal gas content and outburst risk (Beam-
Mining. In Australia, nearly 80% of coal is produced from open-cut mines, in contrast to the rest of the world where open-cut mining only accounts for 40% of coal production. Open-cut mining is possible because coal seams are close to the surface. Such mining is cheaper than underground mining and enables up to 90% recovery of …
