Abstract

To improve mine production efficiency, reduce blasting costs, and meet the needs of mine capacity expansion, the use of an on-site mixing emulsion explosives truck for open pit iron ore deep hole step blasting charging operation. This paper firstly briefly introduces the process flow of emulsion explosives production and makes a detailed introduction to the working principle and process control requirements of each section of emulsion explosives production. Based on the analysis of the basic principle of adaptive control, the adaptive PID controller is designed to control the discharge temperature and density of emulsion explosives production and to achieve self-tuning of parameters, which improves the control accuracy of production parameters and product quality. The research results show that the use of field mixing emulsion explosives, and blasting operations personnel was reduced by 40% to 50%, and the drilling workload was reduced by about 7%. The application of field mixing emulsion technology improves the blasting effect, increases shovel loading efficiency, reduces the labor intensity of workers, saves comprehensive mining costs, and reduces the cost of temporary explosives depot guarding and disposal of used packaging in mines.
