Fremgangsmåte og installasjon for sensibilisering av vannbaserte eksplosiver

摘要

The process for sensitizing in situ aqueous explosives before charging the mine holes comprises the formation of an emulsion or dispersion gas-in-liquid from a low sensitivity or non explosive matrix product which consists of a liquid mixture in solution, emulsion or suspension of oxidant in fuel, and a gas. The density of the final explosive product can be varied as a function of the gas flow rate and can be controlled before introducing it into the hole. The installation comprises a tank (1) with the matrix product, a gas reserve (10), a mixture (5), a pump (3) and a gas flow rate regulating device (8) and optionally a tank (2) with a gas bubble stabilizing agent, a dosing pump (4) and a flow meter (7).
