This book documents a substantial body of research work, both in the laboratory and in the field, on an important issue of pyritic shale reactions with industry explosives (ANFO) for safe mining operations in reactive ground containing pyritic minerals. The research outcomes have significant implications in the practice of the mining industry operating with reactive geological situations. The research methodology developed and employed provides a generic guidance to practitioners, academic researchers and postgraduates who will find it useful in linking fundamental science and practical...

The continued use of coal as a means of generating electricity and an increasing demand for cleaner, more efficient energy production has led to advances in power plant technology. Ultra-supercritical coal power plants reviews the engineering, operation, materials and performance of ultra-supercritical coal power plants. Following a chapter introducing advanced and ultra-supercritical coal power plants, part one goes on to explore the operating environments, materials and engineering of ultra-supercritical coal power plants. Chapters discuss the impacts of steam conditions on plant...
