In order to minimize fire risks in underground mines, preventive measures need to be taken. Such means are for example using materials which are hard to ignite and hardly spread fire or hydraulic fluids with low flammability. Testing and assessing those properties is standardized in Germany and Europe. In addition, there are international regulations which define such test methods. The following article describes different classification and testing standards for hydraulic fluids as well as plastic components such as conveyor belts, foams and others.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Author:\u00a0<\/strong>Christoph M\u00f6ller, M.

That is why it is necessary to find the source of fire at an elementary stage and detect it locally. The GESO Firefinder\u00a0M is based on the technology of fibre optical distributed temperature sensing and guarantees a complete and continuing detection of any temperature anomalies along the whole conveyer belt system. Intelligent analysing software differs between normal running variation in temperature and possible fire occurrence. In case of a fire it generates an alarm even with the exact location to a permanent occupied place (mining control stand). This publication describes the system and shows some experiences.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Authors:\u00a0<\/strong>Dipl.-Phys. Bernhard Vogel, Dr. Stephan Gro\u00dfwig, GESO GmbH &amp; Co.

The foaming agent is a surfactant and a non-flammable substance unlike phenol or polyurethane. By inundating a mine space with foam it displaces any explosive gases and prevents oxygen contact with the fuel. The foam has strong penetrating and lasting inhibitory properties. In spite of many efforts being made to improve occupational safety, the risk of fire and explosions in mines remains due to a risk of spontaneous combustion of the materials, e.g. coal or waste, and because of the presence of explosive gases and dusts, e.g. methane gas and coal dust. The CAF system can be used preventively to cover dangerous areas in the goaf, preventing fire damps and dust explosions. It can also be used for actual fire suppression both on machinery and on the coal itself. Examples for both preventive and active firefighting will be given in this article. One Seven MINING has references from applications in the Czech Republic, in Germany, China and Turkey.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Author:\u00a0<\/strong>Dr.-Ing.

It was set up as a training institution for mine engineers and was known as the Electoral Saxon Mining Academy of Freiberg. Teaching began in May 1766. The new institution was badly needed, as in the aftermath of defeat in the Seven Years\u2019 War Saxony urgently had to expand its mining industry in order to make its reparation payments. The present Freiberg University of Mining and Technology is therefore the oldest university of mining and metallurgy in the world.
