Testing the flammable and explosive of coal dust in the pits of the brown coal mine 'Rembas' Resavica

Abstract

Coal dust in the underground mines, depending on specific conditions is a complex problem with the security of the population of underground mining facilities as it can express the explosive, flammable and aggressive properties. Explosions of coal dust have much larger and more serious consequences than it is the case with the explosion of gas mixtures. According to risks, an adequate importance has to be paid to the issue of protection on dangerous properties of the coal dust in the all underground coal mines in Serbia. This paper deals with the results of flammable and explosive properties of coal dust in the pits of BCM 'Rembas' and it gives a solution of the modified methodology of dust control and danger evaluation.
