Waste Heaps Dismantling in Luhansk Region of Ukraine by “FPG “SKHID-ZAKHID” with the Aim of Decreasing Greenhouse Gases Emissions into the Atmosphere

This project envisages works on the dismantling of the waste heaps (conical) at the sites of the former Mine #3-80 GP “Rovenkiantracite” OP “Mine named after M.V. Frunze” (No 1,2,3) and former Mine #31-32 (No 5), which are located in village Yasenovsky, Luhansk Region, Ukraine. Under the project, the installed equipment will allow to extract the residual coal from the waste heaps and use it for the energy needs of local consumers. In the project scenario the coal extracted from the waste heaps will partly substitute the coal that would have been mined instead. These activities would eliminate green-house gas emissions caused by waste heap burning. Secondly, since the coal extraction from the waste heap substitutes coal mining, the fugitive emissions of methane would be reduced as well. Operation works started in April 2011.
