So in paint transport when the coal is being transported, and the wind hits it, it causes a friction and it can set a fire so they water it down to keep that from happening and a little bit of the dust but it’ll still be dusty it doesn’t matter
keep down the dust
It keeps it from igniting 👍♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️🤣
burns better when wet😂😂😂
All that electric car fuel.
dust
Combustible will catch fire
That's a polymer and water base mix to keep the coal from admitting dust in the atmosphere during transport.
to make it dustier on the way
yes we all know why but the last answer made me laugh
keep it from combusting
No...... Don't Care.... Thank You.... Goodnight
To help prevent dust
The coal is thirsty
To cool it down
the coal can ignite from the friction during transport. a lil moisture helps
its not water. its a topper, like plastic wrap, so the dust doesnt come up.
keep down the dust maybe hell I don't know
To keep it from igniting because of friction and also to keep the coal dust down. Living in coal country West Virginia, you learn these things. Have a wonderful day 🙂
weigh it wet, make more money!!!!
make it harder for people trying to steal i guess
Nope, never gave a fuck tbh
Fire
dust
um dust
Dust
keep the dust down an friction of the coal. stop it from igniting
No. Never wondered.
dust
that's not water more likely if it's cold out where that is being sprayed is probably antifreeze
keep dust down.
dust
highly flammable, dust heat and friction, very bad combination !!
fire
no
Coal mines have a crew that all they do is keep the coal spot fires out. Spontaneous combustion.
couple reason not just one or the other
wet coal burns hotter
Train cars spray a latex or polymer sealant, not just water, on coal to form a crust that suppresses dust and prevents spontaneous combustion during transport
once a coal fire starts its almost impossible to put out.All and I mean all coal fields have a small fire that smolders and they dont even try to put them out.
They sell it by weight, this makes it heavier, or profit
So the friction from transport doesn't cause the coal to ignite.
coal ignites on its own. water keeps it from ignition
To keep it from blowing off
It'll smolder due to heat.
its can also escalate to a easy nice 🔥 🔥 FIRE
friction of moving coal can ignite and start to burn .
Keep the dust down
Dust control. But is bad new in the winter. It freezes in big chunks.
