Abstract
This report summarizes the results into the areas of the fragmentation and entrainment of airborne respirable dust (ard). The objectives of this program were fourfold: first, to review the present state of knowldege regarding ard; second, to expand this state of knowledge through the identification of hypothetical microscopic mechanisms by which the coal is fragmented and the dust becomes entrained; third, to specify the informational requirements to verify or nullify these hypotheses; and fourth, to relate experimental techniques that will produce that required information. Additionally, insights are provided regarding potential methods of extraction and/or treatment that may reduce the concentration of ard. Volume II contains the appendix.
