3. 3. In pit crusher conveyor technology
•The drilled & blasted OB is loaded by shovels and transported by dumpers
to Crushers. The crushed OB is then transported by a series of conveyors
into a spreader for dumping.
•Can be used in steep seams where laying of transport roads for the trucks
is difficult.
•While S.R indicates volumes, cut off ratio indicates depth and reflects in
dumper haulage cost, which increase with depth and may become
prohibitive where in alternative haulage system may have to thought off.
•Ideally suited where material has to be transported over a longer distance
& high lift.
4. 3.IN-PIT CRUSHER CONVEYOR TECHNOLOGY
• Haulage costs have been an area that have risen significantly with the
increase of diesel prices.
• One alternative to reduce haulage costs is to shorten the truck haul
distance by bringing the dump point into the pit using an in pit movable
crusher/ crushers and conveying the Over burden out of the pit can
reduce the haul cost.
• When the gradient is too steep, dumping the material within the mine is
not practicable as the dumped OB slides on to the coal face. In such
cases in pit crushing is preferred.
• The flow of material utilising an inpit movable crusher and conveyor
system starts with OB material being dumped into crushers by
dumpers. The material is crushed and fed on to horizontal transfer
belts within the pit or directly on to a major up slope belts taking the
material out of the pit. There may be one or more belts depending on
the pit Geometry and depth. The conveyed material is dumped as per
Video
the requirement and the dump design by using spreaders.
5. In pit crusher conveyor technology:
• Can be used in steep seams where laying of transport
roads for the trucks is difficult.
• Ideally suited for large capacity projects.
• Ideally suited where material has to be transported
over a large distance with huge lift.
• Requires huge capital.
• The transport cost will be much less than compared
to shovel dumper combination.
• Requires heavy equipment like crushers, conveyor
distribution point and spreaders.
6. Ramagundam OC-II with Inpit Crushing & Conveying Technology
Depth and gradients makes dumper haulage prohibitive due to high operating
cost. The alternate choice is ICC where material has to be transported over a
large distance & lift.
The drilled & blasted OB is loaded by shovels and transported by dumpers to
Crushers. The crushed OB is then transported by a series of conveyors into a
spreader for dumping.
7. Salient features of RG OC-II Project
No.of seams- 10
Gradient- 1 in 3.6 to 1 in 4
Depth planned- 400m
Capacity of the project- 4 MTPA
Technology- Shovel dumper combination with ICC technology
Life of the project- 27 years
Stripping Ratio- 7.73 Cum/T (107.46 Mt of coal and 808.46 M.Cum of OB)
Grade of the coal- ‘D’
OMS- 6.88 planned
Cost of production in Rs/T - 1606.94
Total Capital outlay of the project is estimated at Rs 896.32
Slope stability is a vital aspect in this project, as final highwalls will have a height
of up to 400 m which need to be planned as steep for better economics.
The 120m high dumps with crushed OB(low cohesion) will pose different
problems in dump stability which needs a comprehensive study on design,
maintenance, monitoring and stabilisation altogether.
10. Ramagundam OC-II Mine with Inpit Crushing & Conveying Technology
Compacted floor sloped 2-3°towards toe of the upper deck to direct the water to the
drain to avoid seepage into the dump. Better we provide lined drains/channels.
13. The spreader can rotate with an angle of 120 degrees.
In SCCLtd, the inpit crushing and conveying system introduced in RG OC II,
Ramagundam. The capacity of each crusher-conveyor system is 1200
cum/hour. There are 3 such systems in addition to coal conveying system in
RG OC II mine.
14. 4) Continuous Miner Technology:- Bucket Wheel Excavators
•Presently being used in Naveyali, Lignite Opencast mines,
having soft strata.
•The bucket wheel excavates the material without blasting
which is transported by a series of belt conveyors to
spreader.
16. BUCKET WHEEL EXCAVATOR(BWE)
This machine is suitable for excavating soft and non sticky material in
large quantities.
Lignite deposits usually associated with soft over burden. Most lignite
mines in world use these BWEs for both OB and Lignite, as is the case
of “Nyveli Lignite Corporation” of India.
Semi hard material also be made suitable for BWEs by small blastings.
The BWE is a continuous excavating machine and capable of removing
of OB up to 1200 cum / per hour.
The excavation component of BWE is a large rotating wheel mounted on
an arm/boom.
On the outer edge of wheel is a series of scoops/ buckets as the wheel
turns, the Bucket removes soil
As the wheel turns, the bucket removes OB/Coal from the target areas
and carries it around to the back side of the wheel, where it falls on to a
conveyor which carries the material to the identified destination.
BWE are generally worked in combination with crusher & conveying
system.
