“…Deaths rate per million tons of coal of Turkey, China and US were 7.22, 1.27, and 0.02, respectively. During the period 2001e2010, improvements in mine safety measures made by government of China reduced the fatality rate, but it stillhad highest rate of 0.25 fatalities/million tons, 10 and 87 times the reported fatalities for India and USA [119]. Coal mining-linkedcausalities in China have been reported to includeroof collapses, gas outbursts and explosions, poisoning and suffocation, water leakages, mine flooding and fire [120e122].…”

Coal is a strategic and essential resource that ensures quality of life, energy security and sustainable development. Being the cheapest source of energy, it is the second after oil that is used to generate 40% of the world's electricity. However, traditional and conventional coal fuel extraction can threaten human health bycontaminating air and water, harming land, and contributing to global warming. The environmental impacts associated with conventional methods of coal mining and consumption can affect all components of the environment, and these impacts may be beneficial or harmful, permanent or temporary, repairable or irreparable, and reversible or irreversible in nature. These effects require considering of changing the production and consumption of coalwithin a technological framework. Coal mining operationscan cause both quantitative and qualitative impacts on water systems in and around mining areas. This paper reviews the impacts of coal mining on water resource development. Land subsidence, disruption of hydrological channels, flooding, and contamination of water resources and depletion of water table are the major measurable impacts of mining activity on the hydrological environment.

“…25) Combined with available mature coal gasification technology, the gas-based shaft furnace direct reduction process in which the coal-formed gas substitutes for natural gas as reducing agent is proposed, opening up an effective way to develop gas-based shaft furnace direct reduction process in China where natural gas resource is deficient but noncoking coal resource is plenti-ful. 26) Obviously, gas-based shaft furnace direct reduction is an essential procedure in this novel clean smelting process. In conjunction with this development work, we have studied the isothermal reduction behavior of HVTMP from 900 to 1 050°C, simulating the reduction zone in gas-based shaft furnace direct reduction process.…”

“…A number of studies have been carried out on policy formulation, strengthening of legislation, financial investment, and risk management to improve the safety of mines. With the rapid technological evolution, the rate of mine accidents around the world has noticeably decreased, even with the increase in production . It is postulated that there is a relationship between coal production safety and economic development .…”

Mineral production is the mainstay of the global economy. Pakistan has huge mineral resources potential, but the contribution of minerals to the gross domestic product is not commensurate with its potential. The main reasons for the unregulated nature of the mining sector are poor organizational structure, inadequate implementation of legislation, insufficient investment, and lack of technology. Due concerns and priority of introducing advanced and safe mining methods are still awaited in Pakistan. Therefore, the role of policy makers at this stage is crucial for assessing and reviewing the current strategies for developing future strategies in order to overcome these problems. This article reviews the current situation of the mining industry in standards of statutory compliance, highlights the key issues in health and safety practices, and analyses loopholes in policies. In addition, some future implications are also put forward for the steady development of the mining sector in Pakistan. This study will help the government and mining enterprises from different perspectives in order to ensure mine safety and steady development. © 2019 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Process Saf Prog: e12041 2019
