Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of mine mining, and in particular to an intelligent ventilation system for efficient mining in mines. Background Art

[0002] In the process of mining mineral resources, in order to ensure the safety of workers in the mine, it is usually necessary to set up a ventilation system to ventilate the air inside the mine and ensure a healthy working environment for the internal workers.

[0003] The common ventilation system is usually composed of fans, ventilation ducts and air vents. When ventilation is needed inside the mine, the fan is started to extract the air inside the mine and transmit the outside air to the inside of the mine, thereby achieving the effect of ventilation and ensuring the safety of the workers inside the mine.

[0004] Considering the complex environment inside the mine, once a variety of toxic gases appear, there are many problems in relying solely on ventilation for treatment: First, it is easy to cause the ventilation effect to be not obvious enough for the purification of different toxic gases, resulting in residual toxic gases, which still affects the current working environment of the mine. There may be a variety of toxic gases such as carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide, and sulfur dioxide in the mine, and these gases have different physical and chemical properties. Traditional ventilation systems mainly achieve ventilation through the flow of air, but for some specific toxic gases, simple ventilation may not be able to effectively reduce their concentration to a safe range. For example, carbon monoxide is a colorless and odorless toxic gas that has a stronger ability to bind to hemoglobin than oxygen and can cause hypoxia in the human body. If ventilation alone is relied upon, it may take a long time to reduce the concentration of carbon monoxide to a safe level, during which time workers are still at risk of poisoning. Secondly, it is easy to cause the ventilation effect and the purification effect to not match each other, resulting in poor purification and improvement effects of the air environment inside the mine after a long period of ventilation. For the purification of toxic gases, factors such as the type, concentration, and generation rate of the gas need to be considered. Ventilation alone cannot fully purify the toxic gases.
