The objective is the study of filtering tissue permeability and the characterization by means of permeability tests, of the process of coal particles retention in breath protection filters. The porosity of a filter, defined as the ratio between the void volume inside its fibres and the total volume, is a static parameter that provides point source information about the initial conditions of the filtering tissue. When excessive deposition of particles on the fibres happens, there is an increase of resistance to the...

Possibility of taking into account changes in permeability of rock mass being undermined when planning methane drainage borehole systems designed to decrease methane emission in the gob from the rock mass being undermined has been considered. It is shown that industrial anisotropy of the undermined rock mass permeability appreciably effects methane drainage efficiency. A number of criteria is specified which should be taken into account when planning methane drainage systems. Experimental evaluation of the efficie...
