Characterization of Spontaneous Combustion Emissions
2005
Aircraft and ground monitoring at a working colliery in summer and winter, measuring trace gases and particulates from spontaneous combustion, for air quality management and mine planning.

Aircraft and ground based measurements at Kleinkopje Colliery showed spontaneous combustion to be a significant source of fine particles, with PM2.5 concentrations 91 per cent higher inside a combustion plume than outside it. Sulphur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide and carbon dioxide were also raised in plume, and benzene and toluene were detected. Average particle size was below one micron.
Development of Design Procedures for Long Slender Pillars
2005
Design guidance for rib pillars, built from back analysed in situ coal tests and two dimensional modelling rather than empirical data, for rock engineers laying out high extraction panels.
What this report foundNumerical modelling produced upper and lower bound strength formulae for rib pillars, the lower bound covering weak roof and floor contacts.
R1500,00
Numerical modelling produced upper and lower bound strength formulae for rib pillars, the lower bound covering weak roof and floor contacts. The formulae apply between width to height ratios of 0.5 and 2.5, with linear interpolation below that, and give conservative designs above 3. Adjustments were suggested where regular joint sets occur.
