In pursuit of increasing yield of CBM and decreasing CO 2 in atmosphere at the same time, CO 2enhanced coal bed methane (ECBM) recovery technology was proposed by some scholars [11], [12], [13]. The CO 2ECBM process mainly refers to the injection of CO 2 into deep coal seam by surface wells or boreholes to store CO 2.

Coalbed methane extraction (CBM extraction) is a method for extracting methane from a coal deposit. Coal bed methane (CBM) is one of the factors restricting safe production of coal in underground coal mines. It is also a form of highquality energy that can be used in many fields such as power generation, heating, and chemical industries. CBM ...
Most coal has some methane (the main component of natural gas) trapped inside it. This methane is produced during the coal formation process and gets trapped on the surface of the coal in tiny pores and fractures. 1 Many coalbeds also contain large amounts of water; the pressure from this water keeps the methane in place. Coalbed methane is extracted by pumping out the water, which lowers the ...
Coalbed methane is an abundant form of natural gas extracted from coal beds. Coalbed methane is viewed as a cleaner energy source versus petroleum and coal combustion because methane extraction, transport and use are more efficient and less polluting. However, coalbed methane contains high amounts of CO2 that induce solidification during liquefaction. Therefore, CO2 has to be reduced below 2% ...
The commercial extraction of methane from coal beds is now well established in a number of countries throughout the world, including the USA, Australia, China, India and Canada.
