What Effect will Coal Mining Pollution Have on Health
Residents of coal-mining communities have long complained of impaired health. Hendryx and co-author Melissa Ahern, Ph.D., of Washington State University, used data from a 2025 WVU Health Policy Research telephone survey of more than 16,400 West Virginians. That was correlated with data from the West Virginia Geological and Economic Survey, which shows volume of coal production from mining in each of the state’s 55 counties.
The goal was to determine whether there is a relationship between coal production and forms of cardiovascular, lung and kidney disease in the state.
According to Hendryx, as coal production increases, so does the incidence of chronic illness. Coal-processing chemicals, equipment powered by diesel engines, explosives, toxic impurities in coals, and even dust from uncovered coal trucks can cause environmental pollution that could have a negative effect on public health.
According to Hendryx, the data show that people in coal mining communities have a 70 percent increased risk for developing kidney disease, a 64 percent increased risk for developing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) such as emphysema and are 30 percent more likely to report high blood pressure (hypertension).
By the way, as we all know, China has stood out in the world market of all fields especially in industries such as mining industry. If needed, we recommend you here with China’s high quality machinery manufacturers which will provide you with both world-class products and services.
Many Chinese machinery companies (here we recommend Henan Hongxing Machinery Co., Ltd) are all famous for their various mining machines including stone crushing machines, ore dressing machines, cement equipment and powder making machines, and other related services like after sale service, product maintenance and technology support which applied in many fields around the world.
The best-sellers exported to the world made by Hongxing of China are jaw crushers, mobile crushers, ball mills, Raymond mills, sand makers, and rotary kilns with different types and excellent features which all do well in field practice with their reliable performance, safety as well as environmental friendliness.
