In the study, the authors analyze the structure of the peat mining equipment park of «Tverregiontorf» and assess the technical level of the machines used, which affects the dynamics of peat extraction volumes. The article deals with the problem of assessing the technological safety of peat mining equipment. The existing two approaches to the analysis of technological safety are not adequate enough. The authors propose to use a technical and economic approach to the analysis of the level of technical safety of a peat mining enterprise on the basis of a model of functioning of a peat mining machine. The functional model of peat technology is based on the idea of technical modernization of the peat machine design and modernization of peat production technology. The technical and economic approach makes it possible to determine the optimal structure of the mining equipment park, as well as to modernize the technology of the production process of peat extraction and to form appropriate mobile sets of machines for the extraction of peat and peat-wood raw materials.
The «National Security Strategy of the Russian Federation until 2030» prioritises the use of resource-saving and waste-free technologies for natural resource extraction and processing, import substitution of mining equipment in the Russian mining sector, and the introduction of digital technologies at all stages of resource extraction and processing in the mining industry to improve their safety. The aim of the article is to study the gradual development of peat machinery classification and the relevance of its improvement through integrated mechanization devices to create waste-free extraction and processing of peat deposits using full-cycle mobile complexes with the development of environmentally friendly and resource-saving technologies for peat production. The methodological basis of the research includes post-event analysis, peat machine design theory, and systems analysis. As a research result, new system factors influencing the development of the classification of currently available machinery and equipment for peat production, as well as classification variants combining the processes of extraction and processing of peat deposit resources are provided, which allow modeling the structure of full-cycle mobile complexes for extraction and processing of peat deposit resources without waste. In terms of practical application, the classification of peat machinery enables the development of a rational decision-making data system for optimizing the structure of the technological machinery and equipment fleet of peat extraction enterprises, taking into account the deteriorating conditions of peat resources and development technologies, the economic conditions of the industry and the current trends of digitalization in the extractive industry.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
