After its substitution by natural gas the gasification technology became the basis of the production of electricity in the combine cycle power plant with total output 400 MW. For the possibility of gasification of liquid by- -products forming during the coal gasification a entrained-flow gasifier capable to process also alternative liquid fuels has been in installed. The concentrated waste gas with these sulphur compounds is conducted to the desulphurisation where the highly desired, pure, 96 % H2SO4 is produced. Briquettable brown coal is crushed, milled and dried and then it is passed into briquetting presses where briquettes, used mainly as a fuel in households, are pressed without binder in the punch under the pressure of 175 MPa. Fine brown coal dust (multidust) is commercially used for heat production in pulverized-coal burners. It forms not only during coal drying after separation on electrostatic separators, but it is also acquired by milling of dried coal in a vibratory bar mill. Slag from boilers of classical power plant, cinder form generators and ashes deposited at the dump are dehydrated and they are used as a quality bedding material during construction of communications in the mines of SUAS.

    THE USE OF STONE DUST TO CONTROL COAL DUST EXPLOSIONS: A REVIEW OF INTERNATIONAL PRACTICE Prepared by Peter Cain, Ph.D., P.Eng For The Stakeholders of the Federal Government / Industry Underground Coal Mines Safety Research Collaboration Administered by Natural Resources Canada. March, 2003 THE USE OF STONE DUST TO CONTROL COAL DUST EXPLOSIONS: A REVIEW OF INTERNATIONAL PRACTICE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Underground Coal Mine Safety Research Collaboration (UCMSRC) is an ad-hoc association of stakeholders in the Canadian underground coal mining industry. It was established in 1998 after the closure of the federal governments CANMET Coal Research Laboratory in Sydney, N.S. The UCMSRC provides a forum for the discussion of safety and health topics in underground coal mines. Stakeholders include operating companies, Federal and Provincial government agencies, universities and consultants. In 2001 UCMSRC stakeholders responded to a request from the Nova Scotia Department of Labour to review methods of controlling coal dust explosions. At their specific request, a review of passive and triggered explosion barriers in underground coal mines was commissioned (Zhou and Panawalage, 2001). To complement this work on explosion barriers, the UCMSRC commissioned a review of international practice relating to the use of stone-dust to control coal dust explosions after a request from several stakeholders. The resulting report was compiled from technical reports and regulatory standards relating to coal dust explosions and stone-dusting practices in underground coal mines obtained from both library and on-line resources. It summarizes the present- day understanding of coal dust explosion hazards and presents a comparison of some national and international regulatory standards.

The base to determine the coal layers hazardous metamorphism, characteristics are: average reflectance of vitrinite, presence of some spontaneous fire, components in organic matter (С0, О0, Н0, N0), alteration of moisture and geological and genetic factors, mineral impurities content. For these classificatory parameters, their elemental constituents. quantitative assessment is available in the whole multiplicity of coals metamorphic transformation. The specific electrical resistivity logarithm and other proxy parameters may serve as additional classificatory parameters to reveal any hazardous characteristics of anthracites after grounding their using in some ranges of metamorphism series. It has been established that the existing wide range of vitrinite reflectance alteration for anthracites specifies significant alterations in the fossil fuel structure and properties.
