Abstract

The article presents two options of organizing the technological process of milled peat extraction with due consideration of weather conditions for peat drying. The first option of the technological process is the extraction based on cycle peat harvesting differentiation. The developed technological process of milled peat drying in thick layers based on pneumatic peat harvesting allows us to organize a technology of peat extraction with a constant cycle time, avoiding the necessity for drying rate prediction. This is due to the fact that under good weather conditions the spreading thickness of 45-50 mm is sufficient to maximize the number of harvesting cycles. Milling at roughly equal depths forms the basis for the second option of technological process. The article presents the methodology of calculating such technological parameters as cycle and seasonal harvesting, number of cycles and seasonal productivity of a harvesting machine. Seasonal harvesting and seasonal productivity of a harvesting machine are calculated by technological design standards. The analysis of calculations revealed that in the process of milled peat extraction based on cycle harvesting differentiation, it is necessary to apply coefficient 0.9 that takes into account the organization of harvesting machines operation.

Highlights

  • The organization of mining processes goes hand in hand with a specific production technology

  • The organization/ implies the development of methods for the best process implementation, while the technology is provided for the methods of changing a production object

  • Organizational measures are aimed at improving the cycle and seasonal harvesting of milled peat, as well as at increasing the productivity of technological machines

Summary

Introduction

The organization of mining processes goes hand in hand with a specific production technology. Many of the peat production organizational tasks must be carried out in the light of existing technological requirements and regulations. There is significant difference between technology and organization. The organization/ implies the development of methods for the best process implementation, while the technology is provided for the methods of changing a production object (in the technological process under consideration a production object is a peat deposit). The ultimate goal of organizational measures is to develop recommendations for ensuring the most effective performance of technological processes. Organizational measures are aimed at improving the cycle and seasonal harvesting of milled peat, as well as at increasing the productivity of technological machines
