The possibility of application of bioadditives to diesel fuel at mining enterprises

The rate of production in the mining industry is increasing every year, and consequently the number of special equipment and vehicles used in underground and open pit mines grows. Most of these vehicles are equipped with diesel engines. Due to the inefficient combustion of diesel fuel in the engine, an additional amount of emissions of toxic gases, such as carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, volatile hydrocarbons and others, is formed, and soot particles are generated in large quantities. All these components are harmful to both the health of workers and the environment. Known and currently used methods of reduction of the exhaust emissions entail large energy losses and high electricity costs. One of the ways to simultaneously solve these two issues is the application of more environmentally friendly fuel, namely the use of bioadditives that increase the effectiveness of fuel combustion and form fewer undesirable emissions as a result of fuel combustion. The studies carried out shown a decrease in the concentration of carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides during the operation of mine diesel-hydraulic locomotives, and there was also a decrease observed in the amount of soot particles formed during the operation of dump trucks at the open pit mine.

Keywords: mining industry, underground coal mines, coal open pit, diesel engines, toxic gases, soot particles.
