and grinding of coal.1−5 Especially, the obvious yet hidden danger of coal dust explosions exists in the equipment, which seriously threatens the safety and production of industrial coal processes.6 Coal dusts, which are relatively light, can easily become airborne and remain aloft in enclosed and semi-enclosed spaces to form dust clouds.

Authors: C Man, KA Teacoach. Coal dust explosions in underground coal mines are prevented by generous application of rock dust (usually limestone). If an explosion should occur, the rock dust disperses, mixes with the coal dust and prevents flame propagation by acting as a thermal inhibitor or heat sink. To investigate this …
