HYDROX STEEL TUBE

Domain	Definition
Mining	An alternative to explosives for breaking down coal in safety lamp mines. The gasification of the Hydrox charge generates sufficient pressure within the shothole to break down the coal. The original plastic disc attached to the charge has been replaced by a metal disc separately seated. The gaseous products from the Hydrox charge are mainly carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and water vapor. The tubes can be recharged underground. The method gives a high yield of +2 in (5.1 cm) in size of coal. (references)
