The aim of this project is to understand the implications of physical and chemical characteristics of mixed coal mine dusts to their elemental release and oxidant production. The re-emergence of occupational lung diseases in recent years has revealed a major knowledge gap in the area of respirable particle reactivity. This research will examine the role between coal mine dust and their capacity to produce reactive oxygen species, with the focus being on the role of physical and chemical properties of particles and how they transform with age. The findings will be used to develop screening protocols and develop novel monitoring / mitigation strategies for coal mine workers.

该项目的目的是了解混合煤矿粉尘的物理和化学特性对其元素释放和氧化剂生产的影响。近年来职业性肺病的再次出现揭示了在可吸入颗粒物反应性领域的重大认识差距。这项研究将研究煤矿粉尘与其产生活性氧物种的能力之间的作用，重点是颗粒的物理和化学性质的作用以及它们如何随年龄变化。这些发现将被用于制定筛查方案，并为煤矿工人制定新的监测/缓解战略。
