Isolation and consolidation foams for tunnels and underground coal mines
Isolation and consolidation foams are used in tunnels and underground coal mines. These innovative products can be easily used in the case of mine fires or for preventing air leakages.
Void filler for mines
Cavities at long wall faces and in entries create the problem of rock falls. The cavities must be filled securely. Our FERROFLEKS void filler can easily fill the gaps.
Consolidation of T-junctions or fault zones
When consolidation of T-junctions or fault zones on longwall faces or coal and pillar stabilisation is required, STEROPES will be the solution.
Air-leakage and methane-accumulation prevention systems
Spontaneous combustion has always been a problem in coal mines. Fires due to spontaneous combustion generally develop in the coal seam or gob areas.
To prevent gob fires, air should be cut off by sealing the area permanently. The ideal product to prevent air leakage and accumulation of methane in a gob area is the LUNAFLEKS air-leakage and methane-accumulation prevention system.
Pumps and auxiliary equipment for resin-injection systems
OK can provide the required pumps and auxiliary equipment for resin-injection systems.
