Inhibition of spontaneous combustion in low-rank coal by facultative anaerobic microflora: reducing oxidizer, increasing retardant and modifying coal structure

Coal spontaneous combustion is a major mining hazard, causing casualties, economic losses, and environmental damage. Here, an eco-friendly microbial fire prevention technology was proposed. A facultative anaerobic functional microflora was cultivated from coal seam water. Its met...
