Further, the performance and availability of the plant is influenced by several faults occurring in the milling system and various mill related factors such as incorrect fineness, improper air/fuel ratios, coal hang up at the mill inlet, overloading, fire /explosion, and wear of milling components (Maloney, Benson, & Tous (1981), Sathyanathan ...
Despite being crucial for meeting the world's energy demands, coal mining operations present considerable health risks, especially when it comes to exposure to coal dust. Longwall coal mining, an advanced technique, has considerably enhanced production but made dust control more difficult. Due to its explosive nature, coal dust continues to …
Explosions consistently occur when the coal air mixture is leaner than normal, either when initating coal feed on mill start-up, stopping coal feed on shutdown, or when equip- ment problems cause inadvertent loss of feed. Upon loss of feed to a pulverizer, the coal/ air mixture in the system becomes leaner and the coal dust will
Mill inerting is regarded as the principal approach or engineering control to prevent mill fires & explosions. People working in our industry use the term "inerting" loosely and …

The coal mill is operated as an air-swept mill and "blows" directly into the combustion zone of the steam boiler, via a pipeline connection. In case of an explosion, normally as consequence of ignition within the mill chamber, there will be explosion propagation towards the boiler. The combustion "cloud" will propagate to where it finds ...
