Mining Publication: Coal Dust Particle Size Survey of US Mines The size of the coal dust is relevant to the amount of rock dust required to inert the coal dust, with more rock dust needed to inert finer sizes of coal dust Dust samples were collected by MSHA inspectors from several mines in each of MSHA's 10 bituminous Coal Mine Safety
This paper presents the results of a recent coal dust particle size survey to determine the range of coal particle sizes found in dust samples collected from intake airways in 50 US coal mines in MSHA's 10 bituminous Coal Mine Safety and Health Districts (see Fig 1) (MSHA District 1 covers anthracite mines in Pennsylvania, which do not require rock dusting)
The results indicate that particle sizes of mine coal dust in intake airways are finer than those measured in the 1920s This finer size coal dust in intake airways would require more incombustible matter to be effectively inerted than the 65% incombustible specified in current regulations
TP 464 states that dust collected from ribs, roof, and timbers was ner in size, with 40 75% ner than 200 mesh TP 464 does not give any additional details on the total number of mines surveyed or the total number of samples analyzed for coal particle size
The results indicate that particle sizes of mine coal dust in intake airways are finer than those measured in the 1920s This finer size coal dust in intake airways would require more incombustible matter to be effectively inerted than the 65% incombustible specified in current regulations

Given the results of the recent coal dust particle size survey and large-scale explosion tests, NIOSH recommends a new standard of 80% TIC be required in the intake airways of bituminous coal mines The survey results indicate that the current requirement of 80%
Nagy, 1981) A recent coal dust particle size survey in dicates that current mining methods generate finer par ticles; therefore, more inert material is required (Sapko et al, 2007) One advantage of the CDEM is that it ac counts for the coal particle size in its determination of explosibility The CDEM color readout takes the various
coal particle size for power plant Mine Equipments Online particle size distribution analysis of pulverised coal The particle size distribution of the pulverised coal in a fossil fuel power station is an important and useful parameter for the efficient control of power generation
Coal dust particle size survey of US mines Coal dust particle size survey of US mines (>250 μm) do not explode/ignite at dust concentrations up to 600 g/m3, and limestone rock dust particles >200 mesh
In the United States, current rock dusting requirements remained largely unchanged since 1969 US Title 30 Code of Federal Regulations Section 75403 is based on a coal dust particle size survey performed in the 1920s and later was supplemented by full-scale testing of the rock dust ability to inert a coal dust

This medium-sized blend was used to represent the average of the finest coal particle size collected from the recent dust survey Explosion tests indicate that medium-sized coal dust required 764% TIC to prevent explosion propagation Even the coarse coal dust (20% minus 200 mesh or 75 microm), representative of samples obtained from mines in the 1920s, required approximately 70% TIC to be
The results show that the characteristics of the methane–coal-dust mixture explosion and the mitigating effectiveness by ultra-fine water mist are influenced by the methane concentration, the coal-dust concentration, the coal-dust diameter and the applied volume flux of ultra-fine water mist

Coal dust is a fine powdered form of coal, which is created by the crushing, grinding, or pulverizing of coalBecause of the brittle nature of coal, coal dust can be created during mining, transportation, or by mechanically handling coalIt is a form of fugitive dust Grinding coal to dust before combusting it improves the speed and efficiency of burning and makes the coal easier to handle
