Abstract

The working environment specific to underground activity under normal operating conditions refers to the type and concentration of gases specific to the underground atmosphere (O2, CO2, CH4, CO, N2, CnHn), the humidity present in the underground atmosphere, the type and concentration of suspended dust, barometric pressure, air temperature, air speed, flow rates, etc. In order to know the normal environmental conditions specific to an underground workplace, specialized measurements and laboratory determinations are performed. It should be noted that the underground working environment can be influenced by a number of factors, as follows: the type of coal, the mining method, the intensity of mining, the technologies applied, the gas-dynamic regime of the coal layer and the rocks in which it is located, the groundwater regime, the ventilation system applied, the depth of mining, atmospheric phenomena, etc. The paper will address the assessment of security vulnerability regarding the risk of explosion in underground mining operations.
