20150115690 | PROCESS FOR APPLYING ROCK DUST TO A MINE WALL - Rock dust is applied to a coal mine wall for mine fire suppression in combination with a chemical foam containing a saturated fatty acid, preferably stearic acid, which imparts hydrophobic properties to the rock dust particles, avoiding agglomeration. The rock dust and foam containing a saturated fatty acid are combined by causing the rock dust and foam to flow through separate conduits to a combiner from which the resulting mixture is caused to flow through a nozzle for application to the mine wall. | 04-30-2015 |
20150114671 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR APPLYING ROCK DUST TO A MINE WALL - Rock dust is applied to a mine wall for mine fire suppression in combination with a chemical foam, by generating the foam from air and a foamable liquid in a mixing chamber, and delivering the foam through one flexible conduit and a suspension of rock dust in water through another flexible conduit to a combiner, and causing the combined foam, rock dust and water to pass through a flexible hose to a delivery nozzle from which it is applied to a mine wall. | 04-30-2015 |
20130277072 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR APPLYING ROCK DUST TO A MINE WALL - Rock dust is applied to a mine wall for mine fire suppression in combination with a chemical foam, by generating the foam from air and a foamable liquid in a mixing chamber, and delivering the foam through one flexible conduit and air-entrained rock dust through another flexible conduit to a portable assembly composed of a Y-joint and a delivery nozzle for combining the foam and rock dust and applying the combination directly to a mine wall. | 10-24-2013 |
20080255255 | Foam composition - Foams suitable for such uses as landfill coverage, frost protection, volatile emission control, gas control in mining, are composed of a hydrolyzable protein and a pre-gelatinized cationic modified starch along with other ingredients. The foam concentrate can be made at ambient temperature, is stable over time, can be easily tailored to achieve a desired foam stiffness and drain time characteristic over wide ranges, and can be easily diluted at ambient temperature to produce a foamable composition. | 10-16-2008 |
