To produce gas from coal seams, water must be extracted first, lowering the pressure so the gas can flow out of the coal. The volume of groundwater extracted can vary significantly between individual wells, coal seams and coal basins, depending on geological conditions.
1. Introduction. Coal seam gas (CSG) is an unconventional resource which has been exploited in recent years as a substitute for coal and oil [1].Gas extraction involves decreasing the water pressure which holds the methane in place in the coal cleats [2, 3].Through this process, significant volumes of associated water are produced [4].This associated water could be a valuable resource; however ...

It deals directly with the physical behavior of the coal seam as a reservoir. Coal seams show considerable differences in behavior from ...
The measurement of gas content in coal seam by means of indirect method involves heavy workload, long period, high cost and complicated operation and a proneness of negative values in the process of measuring gas absorption constant. To address these problems, the gas basic parameters and coal quality indexes of 90 coal samples from 90 coal mines in 13 provinces of China are determined ...
The highest gas pressure and the maximum gas content in the coal seam were MPa and m 3 /t, respectively. There was a high coal and gas outburst hazard in the coal seam and, therefore, it was necessary to improve the elaborate identification and realtime monitoring on the outbursthazardous zones in the coal seam.
Coalbed gas content is the most important parameter for forecasting and preventing the occurrence of coal and gas outburst. However, existing methods have difficulty obtaining the coalbed gas content accurately. In this study, a numerical calculation model for the rapid estimation of coal seam gas content was established based on the characteristic values of gas desorption at specific exposure ...
Coal seam gas (CSG) is mainly a combination of methane (CH 4) and carbon dioxide and has very close methane percentage (95%) to that of natural gas (NG) (97%).In contrast biogas produced form digestion process has methane content around 68% which makes it low energy content as shown in Table to the decline in the NG resources and the low quality of biogas, CSG can be the energy resource ...
1. Introduction. Development and commercialization of coal seam gas (CSG) deposits has primarily occurred within the past 30 years in countries such as USA, Australia, Canada, China, and India [1].CSG originates from biologically and microbial transformed organic matter that has undergone geological processes [2].Typically, the gas reserves are located in coal seams which are several hundred ...
Underground coal gasification (UCG) is an industrial process which converts coal into product gas. UCG is an insitu gasification process, carried out in nonmined coal seams using injection of oxidants and steam. The product gas is brought to the surface through production wells drilled from the surface. The predominant product gases are methane, hydrogen, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.
FD mechanism in coal seam underestimated the gas diffusion in coal seam and consequently, overestimated the reaction rate of coal seam. The diffusion problem was corresponded with the theory about the diffusioncontrolled reaction of a coal particle combustion [18, 42]. Therefore, TD diffusion was applied in the following investigations.
Pad Drilling (Surat Basin) The majority of Arrow Energy's coal seams have Total Vertical Depths of less than 900 m and as shallow as 200 m. These shallow depths create a problem when planning well spacing for gas drainage. The optimum spacing required for vertical wells is between 700 and 1200 meters.

By monitoring the gas pressure and temperature of deformed coal and primary coal, and comparing methane diffusion in waterbearing coal and dry coal using lowfield nuclear magnetic resonance, the evolution law of key gas parameters during desorption process can be established [18,19,20].
The results show that the evolution process of gas pressure in coal seam boreholes can be divided into two stages. In the first stage, the gas pressure increases rapidly, and the pressure change rate decreases continuously. In the second stage, the gas pressure is slow and stable, and the pressure change rate tends to 0.
Then the gas flow rate changes gradually, which can be regarded as an inefficient mass transfer stage. Therefore, when there is a lateral heterogeneity in permeability during CBM well development (Fig. 6), the gas supply unit of coal is uneven, which is a process of the gas supply unit moving back to the far end of the well. The physical ...
Coal seam predrainage technology is widely used to prevent and control gas in China's highgas coal seams, and upward drilling is a safe and reliable technology. Using the Luling Coal Mine as the study location, according to the actual situation of the site, a layerthrough drilling process was proposed.
Gas Works Park, Seattle, preserves most of the equipment for making coal is the only such plant surviving in the United States. Manufactured gas can be made by two processes: carbonization or refers to the devolatilization of an organic feedstock to yield gas and is the process of subjecting a feedstock to chemical reactions that produce gas.
Gas, as a concomitant component in the process of coal carbon generation, is a major factor threatening the safe operation of coal mines and constitutes an ef fi cient and clean energy source ...

In order to reveal the process and mechanism of gas flow in a lowpermeability coal seam, a new multiplerelaxationtime lattice Boltzmann method (MRTLBM) model of gas migration in coal micro/nanopores based on Langmuir monolayer adsorption theory, the slip boundary scheme and Bosanquet effective viscosity was established. The software MATLAB was used to carry out the simulation study of ...
The process of drilling holes to extract gas disrupts the coal seam's pressure equilibrium, causing the adsorbed gas in the pore space to desorb and become free gas, and the entire process to be transmitted to the fissure system via diffusionseepage [26,27,28]. The volume of gas exchange per unit volume between the coal matrix and the ...
The results suggest that the unknown function identification method for the differential equation, which avoids measurement and analysis of the pore and fissure structures of coal samples, accurately and directly obtains the change trend of desorptiondiffusion sources in the process of gas seepage and provides a new idea for the study of the ...
Coal seam gas is primarily made up of methane gas, generally 9598%. This gas is also called coal bed methane (CBM) if extracted from a coal deposit as unconventional natural gas for economic purposes. ... During the coalification process, methane gas is captured in the coal seams and later released during coal mining operations. Coal bed ...
Coal seam gas (abbreviated "CSG") is formed by the geological process of heating and compressing plant matter to create coal. Over millions of years, methane forms within the coal. The methane is trapped by water in the gaps and cracks between the coal molecules. These gaps are known as cleats.
