Abstract

Coal quality plays a pivotal role in determining its efficiency and environmental impact when used as a fuel source. This study aims to conduct a comprehensive comparison of coal quality by employing two analytical approaches: Actual Analysis and Proximate Analysis. Actual Analysis evaluates the fundamental characteristics of coal, including carbon content, hydrogen, sulfur, and trace elements. In contrast, Proximate Analysis focuses on determining moisture content (TM), ash (ASH), total sulphur (TS), and calorific velocity (CV). By integrating the insights gained from both models. The difference in coal quality is caused by the following factors, coal cleaning, coal getting, drainage making, and human error. Difference between actual coal quality parameters and model coal quality in January – March 2024; moisture content (TM) (0.2 - 1.59 % ar), ash (ASH) (0.76-5.01 % adb), total sulphur (TS) (0.1-0.6 % adb), calorific velocity (CV) ar (4-145 kcal/kg). In contrast, Proximate Analysis focuses on determining moisture content, volatile matter, ash, and fixed carbon. By integrating the insights gained from both models, this paper elucidates the strengths and limitations of each method, highlighting their relevance in industrial applications and environmental considerations. The findings provide a nuanced understanding of coal quality, paving the way for more informed decisions in its utilization and management. This study emphasizes the importance of selecting the appropriate analytical method to achieve optimal performance and sustainability in coal utilization.

Abstract

Solar mini-grids present a viable solution for electrifying off-grid rural and remote areas. However, their implementation and long-term sustainability encounter several challenges in most developing countries, including Zambia. This study aims to identify the risks associated with solar mini-grids in Zambia and to explore effective mitigation strategies. By adopting ISO 31000 for risk management, the research develops a comprehensive Risk Management Framework tailored to the needs of solar mini-grid projects. An inductive approach is used to investigate the key risks affecting the faster adoption and deployment of solar mini-grids in Zambia, allowing for an in-depth exploration and understanding of complex phenomena. Expert interviews serve as the primary data collection method, providing detailed insights from individuals experienced in solar mini-grid projects in Zambia. The data gathered through these interviews is analyzed using MAXDQA software, a tool for qualitative data analysis. The findings reveal a lack of a standardized and comprehensive risk management framework, with organizations relying on isolated tools such as risk registers and assessment matrices, leading to inefficiencies and sustainability challenges. Key risks identified include funding difficulties, licensing issues, technology acceptability issues, energy affordability, and system design failures leading to technical issues. The study proposes several mitigation strategies, including diversifying funding sources, streamlining regulatory processes, implementing training programs, engaging local communities, and ensuring high-quality procurement. It is recommended that a comprehensive, integrated risk management framework be established, incorporating continuous risk monitoring throughout the project lifecycle. Additionally, the research highlights the importance of capacity-building initiatives, stakeholder engagement, sustainable business models, and post-project monitoring to ensure the long-term success and resilience of solar mini-grids in Zambia.

Abstract

The Boron-Lithium-Chlorine (B-Li-Cl) trend line serves as a valuable geochemical tool for distinguishing the dominance of hydrothermal water and surface water in geothermal environments. In this study, we applied the B-Li-Cl trend line to analyze the geochemical characteristics of water samples from the Tengchong geothermal area in Southwestern China. Our results reveal distinct patterns that differentiate hydrothermal water from surface water, offering insights into the geochemical processes and interactions occurring in this region. The lower Cl/Li and Cl/B ratio values of meteoric water with a Cl concentration of less than10 (mg/L) indicate that mixing occurs not only when migrating upwards, but also inwards. The absence of a trend formed at a Cl concentration of less than10 (mg/L) proves that the Cl concentration can be diluted by mixing with meteoric water. Meanwhile, the concentrations of Li more than 100 (µg/L) and B more than 1 (mg/L) form a downward trend from magmatic water, while the concentration of B less than 1 (mg/L) has a downward trend from meteoric water. Both interpretations confirm that the behaviour of Lithium and Boron towards temperature changes has the same tendency, which can illustrate the origin of hydrothermal water formation.

Abstract

Geothermal is a natural resource energy in the form of hot water or steam that forms in reservoirs within the earth through the heating of subsurface water by hot igneous rocks. Based on field surveys, the Sulili area shows characteristics of geothermal energy in the form of hot springs. The research aims to use the Na-K geothermometer to find out the temperature of the geothermal reservoir below the ground and the Na-K-Mg geothermometer to look into the type of fluid that is in the geothermal reservoir. The research employs the geochemical analysis method in conjunction with the Na-K geothermometer method. Reservoir subsurface temperature is estimated at EPU station 1 at 326.504°C, EPU station 2 at 473.369°C, and station EPU 3 at 456.508°C. According to the results, the hot springs at the three sites are chlorides with temperatures below ground that are part of the high-temperature geothermal system and are >225°C. The hot spring is in the immature water group. Based on the calculation, the Sulili Geothermal Field with an average reservoir temperature of 418°C is approximately 68.33 MWh. This is a simplified calculation, and actual energy output can vary based on several factors, including the specific characteristics of the geothermal reservoir and the efficiency of the power plant.

Abstract

Inadequate mining management can harm the surrounding environment, including runoff that transports materials from mining sites to bodies of water or the sea. To prevent environmental damage, it is essential to implement mitigation measures in the mining area, such as constructing settling ponds. The research aims to understand the hydrological cycle in the context of nickel mining and develop strategies to mitigate environmental damage caused by mining activities. By examining rainfall data and its effects on mine drainage, the study seeks to provide insights into effective water management practices that can minimize the negative impacts of nickel mining on the environment. The data used is the value of rainfall for 10 years (2008 – 2017). The analysis was carried out on rainfall, runoff water discharge, and the rain catchment area. The results showed that the hydrological risk was 95.76% for the 10-year return period, the average rainfall was 119.84 mm, the designed rainfall was 175.85 mm, and the rain intensity was 38.41 mm/hour. The total discharge of runoff water in the north mine is 13.39 m3/sec, the middle is 25.34 m3/sec and the south is 11.02 m3/sec. The settling pond is designed in three working areas, namely the northern (991.72 m2), central (1,877.33 m2), and southern mining (816.241 m2) areas.
