Demonstration of Optical Microscopy and Image Processing to Classify Respirable Coal Mine Dust Particles
Respirable coal mine dust represents a serious health hazard for miners. Monitoring methods are needed that enable fractionation of dust into its primary components, and that do so in real time. Near the production face, a simple capability to monitor the coal versus mineral dust fractions would be...
