Abstract

In order to realize accurate risk assessment and collaborative control of multi-hazard risk in non-coal underground mines, a space-oriented risk characterization and collaborative control model of multi-hazard risk in non-coal underground mines is proposed. Statistical analysis of non-coal underground mine accidents from 2000 to 2022, revealing the characteristics of non-coal underground mine accidents and 5 risk types were identified, including cage fall accident, powered haulage accident, fire accident, mine water inrush accident, and roof fall and rib spalling accident. A multi-hazard risk analysis and assessment framework for non-coal underground mines based on the inherent risk of the system, the vulnerability of the disaster-bearing body and the adaptability of the disaster-bearing area is proposed. The multi-hazard inherent risks in non-coal underground mines are comprehensively identified and evaluated in five aspects, including hazardous equipment and facilities, hazardous materials, hazardous processes, hazardous operations and hazardous places, and the characterization and unified measurement of multi-hazard risk is realized by combining the vulnerability index of disaster-bearing body and the adaptability index of disaster-bearing area. Regional multi-hazard risk aggregation is achieved through the Nemerow pollution index and space-oriented multi-hazard risk is obtained. Constructed a multi-hazard safety risk collaborative control system of source identification, classification and control, process control, continuous improvement, and full participation. Finally, the validity and rationality of the risk characterization model and the risk collaborative control system are verified. The research can both support the formulation of macro policies for non-coal underground mines and provide guidance for the specific spatial layout.
