Steps taken by CIL to improve Coal Production from Underground Mines
Coal India Limited (CIL) has envisaged following steps to improve coal production from underground mines include:
Planning new underground mines adopting mass production systems like continuous miner technology and longwall technology wherever feasible.
Entering into risk / gain sharing arrangements with the equipment suppliers for guaranteed levels of production and maintenance of equipment
Undertaking thorough geo-mining investigations before the formulation of the projects
Training of manpower.
Replacing manual loading with loading machines like Side Discharge Loaders (SDLs), Load Haul Dumpers (LHDs) in conjunction with belt conveyers wherever feasible
Providing man riding systems to reduce travel time of miners
Introducing multi skilled job concepts etc.
Create adequate infrastructural facilities for ventilation, bunkerage, coal evacuation, out-bye transportation, mechanized tunnelling, shaft sinking, roof supporting.
Delineate new blocks amenable for longwall technology with super block concept.
This was stated by Shri Piyush Goyal, Minister of State (IC) for Power, Coal & New and Renewable Energy in a written reply to a question in the Lok Sabha today.
