However, the risk of thermal runaway, particularly during charging, remains a critical concern. Existing control measures are insufficient to effectively mitigate the hazard. Therefore, a flame-blocking and explosion-proof device is proposed as an additional safety measure during the charging process. Porous media is one of the lightweight and high-strength materials with gas escape passage. These functions of porous media match the needs of thermal runaway risk prevention and control of lithium-ion batteries in underground coal mines. It is proposed to use the porous media as the core of the protection device. To further evaluate the applicability of porous media, the suppression effects of Al₂O₃ and SiC porous media on high-pressure gas release, jet flames, and gas explosions were systematically investigated through numerical simulations, experiments, and literature review. Among the candidate materials with pore densities ranging from 20 to 60 PPI and thicknesses between 1 and 3 cm, SiC porous media with a pore density of 20 PPI and a thickness of 1.5 cm was selected as the primary material for the passive protection device. Finally, based on the practical requirements of lithium-ion battery supplies used in underground coal mines, a three-layer passive protection device centered on porous media was designed for protection during charging. This protection device has the ability to ensure the safety of lithium battery power charging and promoting the electrification transport to reduce diesel emissions and carbon footprints in underground coal mines.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":20743,"journal":{"name":"Process Safety and Environmental Protection","volume":"203 ","pages":"Article 107959"},"PeriodicalIF":7.8,"publicationDate":"2025-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145221894","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This impairment manifested as the inhibition of key enzymatic activities, disruption of microbial communities, and reduced yields of valuable products such as methane and hydrogen.

To address this challenge, this work presents a domain adaptation (DA) strategy, where the source domain contains both fault and normal data, while the target domain contains only normal data. The aim is to leverage prior fault knowledge from historical modes to construct a reliable detection model for new modes. However, traditional DA methods often suffer from performance degradation due to the scarcity of fault data and the presence of previously unseen faults. To this end, a novel concatenation contrastive adversarial learning (CCAL) algorithm is proposed for fault detection. Specifically, a feature concatenation strategy is developed to generate feature pairs, which are used to train a contrastive adversarial adaptation network for robust fault modeling. Additionally, a concatenation reconstruction score is designed as the monitoring statistic to enhance the detection of unknown faults.
