Hazards of Coal Stockpiling Operations
DVD501 - 1994
This video shows what happens when miners or equipment operators are working on a surge pile and the material unexpectedly collapses, breaks loose, or starts to flow underneath them. The disastrous result of being engulfed in loose material -- suffocation -- is demonstrated by a working model of a surge pile. The model shows how stockpiles with drawholes and feeders work, what takes place within the piles, the properties of flowing materials, and how hazardous conditions can develop at surge piles. Included are action scenes of heavy mobile equipment being used around stockpiles. The video emphasizes recognizing stockpile hazards and preventing stockpile accidents.

@ravinraven6913 Год назад

its pretty sad that you didn't know about this stuff before stockpiling, your ignorance can get someone killed. You shouldn't be anywhere near a stockpile operation with your lack of intelligence and training my god man.....how pathetic does someone need to be to be in an industry and have no experience? Reduce risk of killing people, get out now before you kill someone

Look at the underground fire in Centralia, Pennsylvania I believe. The town used to burn their trash which accidentally ignited an underground coal mine. It has been burning ever since almost 50 years* and counting. Entire town had to be abandoned.

@@seanriopel3132 yep, the underground mine here back in the 90s was on fire, they sealed up some of the drifts, they were bringing in a semi truck load of liquid nitrogen every 3 days and injecting it into the drifts until one morning, the gas levels were to high so they sent everyone home and later boom.

I never knew feeders and drawpoints existed for taking coal from a stockpile. I wondered how they got the coal out efficiently without scooping it up into a conveyor or hopper.

@@mfbfreak The voids are at the intakes to the conveyor systems. Those are at known locations. Some of these dozer operators get in trouble because the intake gets covered and they lose track of where it is, and drive over it. A cell phone GPS could easily let them know where the intakes are.

@julianixon416 3 года назад

Radar has been around in a usable state since the 1940s, but it may not be so easy/cheap to use in this kind of equipment. It’s cheaper to make safety videos and use cheap methods of warning than to actually value employee safety if you’re a mining operation.
