Abstract

ABSTRACT With ongoing catastrophic mine tailings dam failures, the hindsight revelation of poor safety records, and an increasing prevalence of public scrutiny and attention of mining operations, there is an immediate call for enhanced safety of tailings dams. Today, challenges arise in identifying and utilising the ability of monitoring systems to understand the complex performance and behaviours of these dams, reflecting on the system’s ability to predict deterioration before failure occurs. New literature, mining regulators, insurance firms, and mining practitioners are calling for increased diligence in the form of real-time monitoring: but what can the industry offer in response? This research establishes a centralisation of real-time monitoring instruments suitable for tailings dams, discussing the specifications, advantages, and disadvantages of each. An understanding of traditional instrumentation, online monitoring systems, and the value of centralised monitoring was detailed. Collaboration with suppliers discovered innovative systems which enable monitoring of different failure modes and mechanisms.

尾矿坝实时仪表与监测技术目录
随着灾难性尾矿坝事故的不断发生,对不良安全记录的事后揭露,以及公众对采矿作业的监督和关注日益普遍,人们迫切需要提高尾矿坝的安全性。今天,在识别和利用监测系统的能力来了解这些水坝的复杂性能和行为方面出现了挑战,反映了系统在发生故障之前预测恶化的能力。新的文献、矿业监管机构、保险公司和矿业从业者都在呼吁以实时监控的形式加强尽职调查:但行业能提供什么回应?本研究建立了一套适用于尾矿坝的集中实时监测仪器,并讨论了每种仪器的规格、优缺点。详细介绍了传统仪器、在线监测系统和集中监测的价值。与供应商合作发现了能够监测不同故障模式和机制的创新系统。
