BCCL (BHARAT COKING COAL LTD.)- Block II Mine
About BCCL• BCCL meets almost 50% of the total prime coking coal requirement of the
integrated steel sector• Operates 81 coal mines which include 40 underground, 18 opencast & 23
mixed mines.• The Company also runs 6 coking coal washeries, 2 non-coking coal
washeries.• The total manpower as on 01.03.2010 is 72,222..
History of Block II mine of BCCL• The project was envisaged to improve the financial position of BCCL and to
meet the growing demand of Coking Coal in the country.• Block-II Area came into existence in the year 1983-84 primarily for the
production of Coking Coal with the inclusion of the Nudkhurkee OCP, Benedih OCP, Jamunia OCP & the opening of Block-II.
Location• Block-II Area is situated about 40 KM west of Dhanbad & its coordinates
are:• Latitude – 23 º 47’ 30’’ N to 23 º 46’ 30’’ N• Longitude – 86 º 13’ 30’’ E to 86 º 10’ 30’’ E
BCCL (BHARAT COKING COAL LTD.)- Block II Mine
Reserve• Reserve as on 01.04.10 upto 600 Mtr. Depth is 184.753 MMT
Leasehold area• Total leasehold area is 907 Hectares.
Area affected by Fire & subsidence• 1300m X (1200m (East) + 600m (West)) = 1300m x 900m (average) =
1170000 M ² or 117 Hectare. • Area affected by fire is eastern part of Block-II OCP Mine up to No. X
Seam.
Future plans• One Underground Coal mine of 0.45MTY capacity is going to be started in
near future in the Area involving continuous miner technology. One OCP using Surface Miner Technology with a capacity of 2.4 MTY is also going to be started in the Area. One Washery behind the existing Washery is going to be constructed in near future.

• The newly formed national laboratory, the Central Institute of Mining and Fuel Research (CIMFR) Dhanbad, is a constituent laboratory of Council of Scientific & Industrial Research (CSIR) was aimed to provide R&D inputs for the entire coal-energy chain from mining to consumption through integration of the Core Competencies of the two (CFRI & CMRI) premier Coal institution of the country.
• The newly formed entity CIMFR Dhanbad, a constituent laboratory of Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) would be the premier organization of the country providing basic research, R & D back up, advisory services and help in technology up-gradation & adaptation to coal and mineral based industries to reach the targeted production with high standards of safety, economy and cleaner environment.
• 4 environmental projects that were going at the time of excursion:1) Utilization of mine water for regain process2) Contribution of mine fire on GHG’s(Green house gases) and defines standards3) How biodiversity controls GHG in mining area4) Steel industry, BCCL and many uses Damodar River water .Effect of these industry
on: Assimilative capacity of water Dilution of the effluent Carrying capacity Supportive capacity

MINE FIRE
GALLERY1) Fire is a major hazard
associated with coal mining
2) Fire causes loss of life,
hindrance in coal production and
sealing of a mine area for along
time
3) CIMFR has conducted study to
understand complex phenomenon
of open fire and suitable fire
suppression technique under
various condition.
4) For simulation studies of open fire in
underground gallery, a fire model
gallery of 65 m length and 5.8 sqm
cross section has been constructed.
5) It is equipped with 130 sensors and
2 data loggers to monitor changes in
behavior of fire in terms of
temperature, gas concentration, heat
flux, air velocity and smoke density
during experiment.
4) 3 sets of experiment has been done
with liquid nitrogen, nitrogen foam, and
water mist under varied velocity of 1 ,
1.5, and 2 m/s. In a set of experiment
18 to 20 tons of was used. Study
revealed that water mist can also be
considered to have good potential in
controlling fire economically.
FLAME PROOFING ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT1) Methane emits while coal is extracted from a mine, and the mixture of methane with air is explosive and has caused large number of explosions killing thousands of persons in underground mines. Similarly, during drilling and subsequent refining, gases emit and form explosive mixture with air.
2) Therefore, in such explosive environment special type of electrical enclosures which are commonly known as flameproof or explosion proof enclosures are employed.
3) These equipment are used in industries like oil refineries, petrochemical, underground coalmines, pharmaceuticals industries, gas-bottling plant etc.
4) Testing and certification of such equipment are required to confirm their design to relevant standards. The motors with sealing box, bolts with shrouding are essential for coalmines and oil mines of India to avoid site-born accidents.
External Ignition Test: 1) The enclosure should be placed in an explosion chamber. The test should be made with the same flammable mixture inside the enclosure and in the explosion chamber.
2) The mixture inside the enclosure should be ignited by spark plug. The test is considered to be satisfactory, if the mixture present in the explosion chamber is not ignited.
3) After the test, the mixture in the chamber is deliberately ignited to confirm that outside atmosphere of the equipment is hazardous.
4) At least five tests should be made. The mixture in the enclosure and if necessary, in the explosion chamber, being renewed for each.

Maithan Hydel Power Project
1) DVC(Damodar Valley Corporation) is the first-ever multipurpose river valley project of independent India which came into being on July 7, 1948 by an act of Constituent Assembly.
2) DVC has its command area of approx 24,235 km² spreading across the Damodar basin. The upper valley consists of two entire districts (Dhanbad and Bokaro) and eight districts partly in the state of Jharkhand. The lower valley on the other hand consists of five districts partly (Burdwan, Hooghly, Bankura, Howrah and Purulia) in the state of West Bengal.
1) Maithon Hydel Power Station (MHPS) is located on the river Barakar about 12.9 km above its confluence with the Damodar near the border of Dhanbad & Burdwan districts of the states of Jharkhand & West Bengal respectively. .
2) The dam's mission comprises:• flood Control• promotion & operation of
schemes for irrigation• water supply for domestic
& industrial use• navigation & drainage• generation, transmission &
distribution of electrical energy.
1) The lake is spread over an area
of 65 km². It is 15,712 ft (4,789
m). long & 165 ft (50 m). high
The unique feature of this is that
it is located underground in the
left bank of the river and is the
first of its kind in India.
2) The power station has a total
generating capacity of 60 MW
with 3 turbines(francis) of 20 MW
each at 176.5 rpm for 4 hrs per
day. It has 3 manhole.
Flood warning
• The Indian Meteorological Department(IMD), Kolkata, transmit the rainfall
forecast for the next 24 hours for the entire Damodar Valley region to Maithon. A
computer model at the Flood Forecasting Unit(FFU) at Maithon estimates the
inflow into the reservoirs based on the real time data & rainfall forecast of IMD.
• Before releasing the water from dam's spillway gates, necessary warning is
communicated to district authorities, affected downstream industries,
municipalities and others including senior administrative officials of Burdwan,
Bankura, Purulia; IOW Dept. Govt.of WB; EE, DHW, Durgapur; Member(RM); CWC,
New Delhi. Whenever there is a discharge from Maithon and Panchet dams
exceeding 1,132 cu ft/s (32.1 m3/s), special arrangements are broadcast through
DOORDARSHAN and AIR regional news bulletins. DOORDARSHAN, Kolkata also
telecasts daily weather forecasts with probable rainfall in the Damodar Valley.

under execution
Fly Ash Utilization:
A large amount of fly ash received from ESP is utilized in brick-making process
A view of bricks formation from fly ash
Ash dyke:
Approx. 90% of the ash is
disposed to the ash dykes in
the form of slurry.
Decant water is reused from
ash dyke which is collected in
near pond.
ESP:
The ash generated in CTPP are present as bottom ash(20%) in Boiler and fly ash(80%) in ESP.
Fly Ash is separated in dry form from ESP.
The flue gases leaving the
boiler passes through the
Electrostatic Precepitator
(ESP). Finally, they are
drawn by the Induced
Draught (ID) Fan into the
main flue and to the
chimney.
220 Meters tall chimney
