COMPRESSED AIR APPLICATIONS IN MINING
Pneumatic Tools
Compressed air is an excellent energy source for power tools such as drills, wrenches, hack saws, and other vital mining equipment used in the deep underground stretches of the mines.
Blasting
Compressed air systems offer safer mediums for use in blasting operations. High velocity compressed air streams can be vital in some mining situations.
Material handling
Material like coal dust can be better handled when mixed with compressed air, allowing for fluidization. In addition, compressed air is used in conveying material in mining as well.
Cleaning
Compressed air is also used for purging unwanted particles from filters and other spaces amid the dirt and dust from the mining operation. It is a clean source of air and can be used effectively without additional cleaning materials. This helps extend the longevity of critical mining equipment and reduces any downtime needed for maintenance.
Ventilation Systems
Compressed air has a long history of providing ventilation to deep mine tunnels. It is a safe and breathable source of air used in hazardous mining environments. In addition, displacement blowers can also utilize compressed air systems for ventilation. In coal mining, for example, displacement blowers are used to provide air ventilation to the mining sites.
Methane Gas Extraction
Methane gas build-up in a mine can be lethal. The risk of a static electric spark igniting methane and breathing the gas are both dangers for miners. To combat this situation, compressed air systems adequately fitted and designed for use in dangerous environments can help extract the gas through blowers and vacuum pumps for coal mining operations.
