The impact of multi-element external coal transportation on reliability of the system and on environment

摘要

Belt conveyors are often used in the process of transportation of coal from mine to primary consumers. Big number of the conveyors in one system lessens the reliability of the whole transportation system and, in the same time, his permeable capacity. Also, there is negative influence on environment because of the big number of the reloading points. This paper analyses the influence of number of conveyors on the reliability of transportation system and on environment. Besides, it deals with the general principles of elimination of negative influences being caused by big number of transportation elements.
