Coal tends to adsorb oxygen and oxidize due to its structure. Spontaneous combustion mechanism
of coal is very complicated, and still this mechanism is not completely understood. However, coaloxygen
compound theory is widely accepted by researchers nowadays. According to this theory,
spontaneous combustion consists of slow oxidation, accelerating oxidation and rapid oxidation
stages. In these stages, the physical oxygen adsorption, chemical oxygen adsorption and free
radicals reactions are the dominant mechanisms, respectively. Spontaneous combustion of coal
can occur without any external impact anywhere coal and / or coal wastes exist. Nowadays, its
revealed that some common thoughts about the effecting parameters on spontaneous combustion
of coal are wrong. For example; spontaneous combustion of coal does not occur only in low rank
coals, and high pyrite content coals may have low spontaneous combustion tendency or coal
mines which were determined as not risky can unexpectedly combust. Therefore, spontaneous
combustion tendencies of coals must be determined; all stages such as mining, stockpile design
and transportation must be planned in detail; continuous monitoring and emergency response
plans must be arranged in case a spontaneous combustion.
