Abstract:
Nowadays, coal mining is extending to deeper and deeper levels, facing ever increasing coal seam gas contents, much higher gas emissions and outburst risks. Capturing coal seam gas before it migrates into atmosphere has been seen as an effective approach to simultaneously improve mining safety, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and produce clean energy. Thick seams account for a considerable share of global coal reserve. The application of longwall top coal caving (LTCC) method to extract thick seams generally yields a much higher productivity and is more efficient in comparison to a mechanised

Rock gas outbursts are a coal mine dynamic phenomena similar to rock bursts, however, they involve the active participation of large quantities of asphyxious and explosive gases under pressure. These events have occurred in the Sydney coal field, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, where they have resulted in injury and economic hardship.<br>Because these phenomena are life threatening and not well understood and because geophysical methods have been identified as a means of studying these phenomena, an intrinsically safe microseismic monitoring system and method suitable for underground coal mines has

This thesis discusses an experimental study involving sorption studies using methane, carbon dioxide, and a multicomponent gas mixture representative of in situ gas composition. Using the isotherms for pure methane and carbon dioxide, isotherm and variation in gas composition with desorption for gas mixture were established using a numerical technique. When using gas mixture, composition of the desorbing gas at each pressure level was monitored. Results indicate that during desorption, methane concentration decreased as the pressure was decreased while carbon dioxide concentration increased. E

Gas diffusion in coals plays an important role in enhanced coalbed methane production, but a consistent picture of diffusion behaviour in coals is yet to emerge.

Coal Seam Gas (CSG) is a form of natural gas (mainly methane) sorbed in underground coal deposits. Mining this gas involves drilling a well directly into an underground coal seam, and pumping out the water (CSG water) flowing through it. Presently, CSG is under exploration in New Zealand (NZ); however, there is concern about CSG water disposal in NZ mainly because of the controversy that this activity has generated in some basins in the United States (US).

Coal seam gas associated water (CSGAW) which is a main by-product of CSG production typically contains significant amounts of salts. The chemical composition of CSGAW is complex and may also contaminated with drilling chemicals contain heavy metals, carcinogens such as benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene, and radioactive elements like uranium. CSGAW has potential environmental issues; therefor it is unsuitable for further uses without proper treatment. The release of CSGAW to the land and rivers without proper treatment may drown vegetation, and endanger the aquatic life and environment.
