HAZARDOUS GAS DETECTING METHOD APPLIED IN COAL MINES

DETECTION ROBOT, IEEE 2011.

AIM:
The main aim of this project is to detect marsh gas and carbon Monoxide and temperature
in coal mines.

PURPOSE:
The purpose of this project is to obtain the real-time status and data of the detected marsh
gas and carbon Monoxide and temperature in the coal mines using robot.

carbon monoxide. The mash gas is the generic terms of the mixed
gas which mainly make up of methane (CH4) in the underground of
the coal mine shaft, and sometimes it abbreviate to methane. It
is a kind of gas that formed during the process of coal-forming
and stored in a large number among the coal bed, and the most
damaging gas in the underground of the coal mine shaft. The
detection methods of mash gas in the underground of coal mine
shaft mainly have optical interference way, thermal conductivity

monoxide gas detection is just like the principle of the last
four ways of mash gas detection. Optical interference way is
using spectral inter ferrous metric principle to detect gas.
Thermal

using

Sensing material for the thermal conductivity of gas and air,

and realizes the difference of gas detection.
Semiconductor air-sensitive way is using some metal oxide
