MASHA Diesel Emissions Symposium 2009
As mines in Ontario head deeper and deeper underground, ventilation costs and emission concerns increase. MASHA hosted a Diesel Emissions symposium on November 26th, 2009 in Sudbury, Ontario.
The symposium provided information to mine operators to help determine if their existing ventilation, emissions measurement, and engine management met current industry practice and regulations.
