But tracking the presence of coal ash in dust has been a challenge for scientists. Until now. Researchers at Duke University and the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill have developed a new forensic tracer that uses lead isotopes to detect coal fly ash in dust and other solids, including soil and sediments.
Coal is the most abundant fossil fuel on Earth. Its predominant use has always been for producing heat energy. It was the basic energy source that fueled the Industrial Revolution of the 18th and 19th centuries, and the industrial growth of that era in turn supported the largescale exploitation of coal deposits. Since the mid20th century, coal has yielded its place to petroleum and natural ...
Soil is a fundamental element for food production and other needs of the global population. Optimizing natural resources is a crucial aspect of supplying the growing population with food [].One significant element in cultivation is soil moisture, which regulates the flow of water and energy from the atmosphere to the field [].Soil moisture is the quantity of water in the soil expressed as a ...

Swetha et al. (Citation 2020) developed an RGB imaging method that can predict soil texture using a deep learning algorithm [convolutional neural network (CNN) model].The development of RGBbased soil imaging is in the beginning stage, but in the future, it could help to further improve soil nutrient status management using HSI and sensorbased ...
This demonstrates that the SEM has good potential of being an effective coal seam detection measure. Although the natural gamma cannot be used in a MWD context, its MI value () has been computed to show that in the absence of geophysics information, the SEM can potentially detect coal just as effectively as measuring natural gamma radiation.
The belt conveyor is the most commonly used conveying equipment in the coal mining industry. As the core part of the conveyor, the belt is vulnerable to various failures, such as scratches, cracks, wear and tear. Inspection and defect detection is essential for conveyor belts, both in academic research and industrial applications. In this paper, we discuss existing techniques used in ...
Firstly, auger coal sampler applies to the various coal sampling system. Auger samplers are compatible with the suspendarm type sampling system, lift type sampling system and tower type sampling system. The auger samplers can be used in the stock ground, port, and other worksites. Secondly, the auger sampler can collect the sample from the ...
The coal delivered from the mine that reports to the coal preparation plant is called runofmine, or ROM, coal. This is the raw material for the CPP, and consists of coal, rocks, middlings, minerals and contamination. Contamination is usually introduced by the mining process and may include machine parts, used consumables and parts of ground ...
Kjeldahl method. The Kjeldahl method or Kjeldahl digestion ( Danish pronunciation: [ˈkʰelˌtɛˀl]) in analytical chemistry is a method for the quantitative determination of nitrogen contained in organic substances plus the nitrogen contained in the inorganic compounds ammonia and ammonium (NH 3 /NH 4+ ). Without modification, other forms of ...
Duke University scientists have developed tests sensitive enough to detect and measure microscopic particles of coal ash in soil, even at concentrations so low and sizes so small that other tests ...
API is proactively integrating modern technology and developing standards to advance safe and responsible natural gas and oil production in addition to complying with regulations as part of a shared goal of zero incidents and reduced emissions. This is illustrated by two recently published API standards related to leak detection in liquid pipelines intended to help operators reduce the risk of ...
In geotechnical engineering, a nuclear densometer or soil density gauge is a field instrument used to determine the density of a compacted material. The device uses the interaction of gamma radiation with matter to measure density, either through direct transmission or the "backscatter" method. The device determines the density of material by ...
July 22, 2021 DURHAM, Scientists at Duke University have developed a suite of four new tests that can be used to detect coal ash contamination in soil with unprecedented sensitivity. The tests are specifically designed to analyze soil for the presence of fly ash particles so small other tests might miss them.
In the search for new sources of oil and natural gas, energy companies are guided by evidence gleaned from huge arrays of data gathered by sending sound waves deep into the ground. At MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL), experts in machine learning and computer vision are developing mathematical tools that ...
If you are new to the mining industry, chances are that you want to know which types of machines are commonly used. The following are the top 6 types of machines used in the mining industry. Mining Drills; The most common type of machine that is used in the mining industry is a mining drill. It is crucial for underground mining operations.
Background Land use/cover and management practices are widely known to influence soil organic matter (SOM) quality and quantity. The present study investigated the effect of different land use,, forests viz. mixed forest cover (MFC), Prosopis juliflora (Sw.) DCdominated forest cover (PFC), and cultivated sites viz. agriculture field (AF), vegetable field (VF), respectively, on soil ...
A coal mining car at Lackawanna Coal Mine in Scranton, Pennsylvania Coal miners exiting a winder cage at a mine near Richlands, ia in 1974 Surface coal mining in Wyoming, A coal mine in Frameries, Belgium. Coal mining is the process of extracting coal from the ground or from a mine. Coal is valued for its energy content and since the 1880s has been widely used to generate electricity.
Vast domains including Machine Learning and Deep learning are core part of AI (Patel et al., 2020a, Patel et al., 2020b; ... Soil moisture sensors use one of the several technologies used to measure the soil moisture content. ... UAVs could be used in order to detect abnormalities and identify potential problems. Psirofonia et al. (2017) 3.
Toxic metals are typically present in "free" quantities in biological systems due to the presence of tiny biological ligands that can form mixed aquabioligand complexes with metals. In vivo complex formation reactions often take the form of ligand or metal exchange reactions involving hazardous metals and chelating agents [17].The equilibrium constant and complex formation are extremely ...
The coal face is dug out, but pillars of coal are left behind to keep the tunnels open and support the roof. Machines called continuous miners are used to remove the coal. The coal is loaded onto conveyor belts and taken up to the surface for further crushing. A machine called a continuous miner at work at the coal face. Room and pillar mining
The freezing and melting law of coal under the impact of liquid nitrogen is the key to judge the state of coal and the evolution of pores and fractures. Therefore, this paper directly measures the temperature propagation law of coal under liquid nitrogen cold socking through experiment. 2. Methodology.
Borehole temperature measurements were the primary tool used to detect underground coal fires until 1963, when the United States began to use thermal remote sensing (TIR) techniques to detect and monitor coal fires [6,15,19]. Since then, TIR has proven to be a reliable and useful tool for identifying and monitoring underground coal fires.
