Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents 49 papers that explore a range of mining topics from the technical and scientific perspective. A focus is placed on describing technical advancements, analysis, and statistics surrounding 19th century coal mining. Of particular interest is the author's analysis of safety cages used to prevent mining accidents. The book's broader context encompasses two key industrial developments of the 19th century: The coal industry and the development of new technologies that enabled a progressive advancement in mining techniques. The author's work not only presents the latest techniques in coal mining technology, but also highlights the ongoing struggle to ensure worker safety, a struggle that continues to this day. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a rich historical and conceptual study of mining ventilation techniques in the Northumberland and Durham regions of England. The author charts the evolution of ventilation practices from the earliest periods up to the mid-19th century. The book highlights the challenges of ventilating deep coal mines, where dangerous gases posed significant risks to miners. It examines the development of various ventilation systems, such as the use of furnaces, and the introduction of safety lamps. The book explores the impact of these innovations on mining practices and safety, and discusses the broader social and economic context of coal mining during this period. By shedding light on the history of mining ventilation, this book contributes to our understanding of the technological advancements that have shaped the mining industry and improved the safety of miners.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a record of the first two years of the North of England Institute of Mining Engineers, founded in 1852. The main focus of the Institute is safety in the mining industry. Early in the book, safety lamps used in mines are discussed in great detail, with a separate paper devoted to improved safety lamps used for lighting coal mines. Another safety focus is on ventilation by water as a power source. A steam jet as a motive power for purposes of ventilation is also examined. The discussions also touch on the subject of choke-damp and the means of counteracting its effects, as well as safety in dip and rise workings. A general subject of interest to the Institute is boring for minerals, wells, and shafts. This book provides an interesting insight into the methods and concerns of the mining industry at a time of great innovation. The concerns regarding miner safety and ventilation are still relevant today, though the methods used to address them have undoubtedly evolved.
