Health effect is liquid behaviour Volume change .Fe is the Instantaneous Iron formation contribution to the overall Production Rate Further refinement of the Zone Volume method fust uialed was developed by incorporation the Aerodynamic and Thermodynamic knowledge resulting from the Visual observations which relate directly to the Volume 4 Liquidus Zone. Here Aerodynamic considerations superimposed upon the Burden Layering Particulate composition effects, provides a second Online Realtime method for Trimming of the overall Process Control System. In this way the Instantaneous Iron Production Rate is directly related to the distribution of Iron Particles subject to Aerodynamically based Liquidus mechanisms.

The aim of this study is to establish a Process Control System to control the Instantaneous Iron Production Rate for the Blast Furnace. The system depends upon the ability to continuously monitor, control, and locate the various Iron forming reactions throughout the Process. Three methods for control are outlined beginning with the simple Isotherm based version through to the more refined method with five classes of identification of the Zone Volume Interface boundaries based on streamline Gas and Particulate knowledge. Experiments using Instrumented Mt. N e w m a n Iron Ore Particles subjected to heating patterns which simulate Burden descent Streamline flow paths, provide a method of classification of the various Blast Furnace Zone Volumes and Iron Produc...

Eight Topic areas are outlined below together with the SSHEG Member contribution and the List of Reference Documents which form part of this submission. Separate to this Senate Submission, individual SSHEG members are expected to also further detail Air Quality Community Health issues. Five Years after the Community attended a Public Meeting at Singleton in 2008 concerned at the Sickness in the Community associated with the quickening pace of Open Cut Mining, the perception remains that our Health concerns are not being addressed or understood. There are no effective Pollution Standards with regards Residents Health. Year by Year Pollution levels rise. Near Neighbours, families, children, Farmers working outdoors and unprotected by air conditioning enclosures like Miners are all "Occupationally Exposed Persons to Coal Mining Airborne Dust", and Mine OH&S compliance should apply.. The "Pseudo Ventillation Standard of underground Coal Mines" would be suited to apply to all of the "Near Neighbour and farm workplace situations". "The exposure Standard for Atmosphere Contaminants in the Occupational Environment * is:-(a)Time Weighted Average (TWA) 50 micro g/m 3. (b) Short Term Exposure Limit (STEL) 15 minutes TWA exposure and not more than 4 times a day and at least 60 minutes apart." *These limits have a Data set reference relating to Underground Mine Ventillation Standards where adequate ventillation flow to areas where people travel or work are a minimum velocity of 0.3 m/sec".

Following four(4) years of NSW Government Authorities investigations into Air Pollution
in the Upper Hunter Valley, it took the World Health Organisation (WHO) announcement
in October 2013 to confirm the connection between Air Pollution and Human Cancers. –
“ A GAME CHANGER”
Document prepared to identify the SSHEG expectations and the Pollution areas in
which investigations were expected to have been reported upon.
