What is a coal bunker?

Coal bunker, is a structure used for storing coal. Coal bunkers play an important role in thermal power plants, coal mines and coal marshalling stations. Depending on the specific application scenario and design, there are various types of coal bunkers, such as circular coal bunkers, square coal bunkers and open coal yards.

Safety Management of coal bunkers

Preventing spontaneous combustion of coal: Since coal itself contains certain moisture and volatile substances, long-term exposure to the air may lead to spontaneous combustion, so the safe management of coal bunkers is of great significance in preventing spontaneous combustion of coal.

Ensure the quality of coal: coal in the coal bunker usually needs to be stored for a long time, if not managed properly, it may lead to the decline in the quality of coal, such as sulphurisation, weathering and other phenomena, so it is necessary to ensure the quality of coal by strengthening the safety management of the coal bunker.

Improve the economic benefits of enterprises: by strengthening the safety management of coal bunker, it can reduce the loss and waste of coal in the storage process and improve the economic benefits of enterprises.

Safety technical measures of coal bunker

Site selection of coal bunker: it should be far away from flammable and explosive materials, and ensure the safety of the location of coal bunker.

Requirements of coal bunker design and construction: the design of coal bunker should take into account the structural strength, solid foundation, dustproof and explosion-proof, etc. to avoid safety problems.

Maintenance and management of coal bunker: Regularly inspect the coal bunker, find damage, aging and other problems in time to repair, to ensure the safety of the coal bunker.
