Book excerpt: Spontaneous combustion presents a very serious hazard to both safety and economics of mining operations. Consequently, this problem poses a major challenge to mine safety researchers; new and improved techniques are constantly being developed to deal with this major hazard. This paper reviews the current practices to prevent and control spontaneous combustion in coal mine operations, highlighting new developments in this area. Research and development work presently being carried out in Canada to deal with this problem, included monitoring, inertization and application of biotechnology, are also discussed.

Destructive fire takes a huge toll in lives, injuries, and property losses, yet there is no need to accept those losses with resignation. There are many measures, often very simple precautions, that can be taken to reduce those losses significantly. To encourage solutions to these problems, the National Commission on Fire Prevention and Control has made recommendations in this report.

This book was released on 2014-12-24 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DEAR MR. PRESIDENT: Transmitted with this letter is the final report of the National Commission on Fire Prevention and Control. The report is based on almost 2 years of work by the Commission. We believe it presents the most significant fire safety problems, and the greatest opportunities for fire loss reduction, in the United States today. The vast majority of the Commission agreed with all fundamental issues. Over $11 billion of our resources are wasted by destructive fires each year. Additionally, 12,000 people are killed and tens of thousands of persons are scarred physically and emotionally by fire. Recommendations are presented in this report which, if implemented, will significantly reduce this great toll. The recommendations emphasize prevention of fire through implementation of local programs. This is in keeping with the very nature of the fire problem which is felt hardest at the community level...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Prevention and Control of Fire Losses: A Handbook During the past year fire has taken a heavy toll of human life as well as of critical materials and equipment such as rubber, foodstuffs, and ships. Conservation of existing facilities has become of prime importance. It is hoped that this Handbook will be of value in promoting such conser vation and that it will also serve as a guide in post-war planning. The Handbook presents in brief form a procedure for the prevention and control of fire losses. It contains some fundamentals of construction, Operation, and protection which have a bearing on fire prevention and control. Defects that have been found from many years of experience in the review of plans and from field surveys to be somewhat com mon are emphasized in the text. Safe practice standards for specific types of hazards are summarized in the Appendix. Fire losses can be controlled, and the extent of such control will depend upon the degree of protection that is justifiable in the design of a building and its equipment, the standard of maintenance that is established, and the availability of trained personnel and suitable equipment to cope with emergencies. Incendiary bombs, high-explosive bombs, and sabotage are not discussed in this Handbook. Information on these important current problems is now available in publications of the Office of Civilian Defense, War Department, Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the National Fire Protection Association.
