THE WAYS OF SAFETY IMPROVEMENT DURING THE OUTBURST-PRONE AND GAS-BEARING COAL SEAMS DEVELOPMENT

Abstract

The state of industrial and labor safety is characterized by the fatality level per one thousand workers in mines. The present index has become lower as compared to the other industries, but the high accident risk remains. The methane explosion is one of the main reasons of the accidents, which necessitates the quality improvement of the mining personnel professional training; the prevention measures financing and the staff training in terms of the mining safety assurance; the equipment installation for safety improvement, including the equipment providing the appropriate pulverized-coal and gas conditions and more reliable conditions of the preliminarily deposits degassing and the mining plants airing. The safety problems have assumed great importance due to the gas and dust explosions which have become more frequent at the coal mines in recent times. The seam unloading and the preliminary degassing are among the methods of the problem solving. The undermining of the underlying seams by the degassing method (combustion) serves to the negative phenomena likelihood reduction.
