Effect of gas adsorption on breakage energy of tectonic coal particles

Chenghao Wang et al.

Summary: Gas adsorption can reduce coal breakage energy and prevent coal and gas outbursts. The increase in adsorption pressure and desorption duration decreases and increases the surface work, respectively. The reduction in surface work is primarily due to gas adsorbed in micropores with a size < 1.5 nm.

Multiscale morphological and topological characterization of coal microstructure: Insights into the intrinsic structural difference between original and tectonic coals

Kaizhong Zhang et al.

Summary: This study analyzes the multiscale microstructure evolution of tectonic coal and its effect on CBM storage and development. The results show that tectonic coals have enhanced sorption ability and lower structural strength compared to original coals. The surface morphological features of coals transform from irregular to regular with metamorphism, and the microstructure connectivity increases. Tectonic coals have a lower pore-throat ratio and tortuosity than original coals, leading to more diversified and accessible migration pathways.

Measurement of adsorption phase densities with respect to different pressure: Potential application for determination of free and adsorbed methane in coalbed methane reservoir

Dameng Liu et al.

Summary: Evaluation of free and adsorption gas in the in-situ reservoir is important for coalbed methane exploration and production. Current methods for estimating the adsorbed gas content have limitations due to unreasonable or questionable mathematical assumptions. This study proposes a method using NMR and excess isothermal adsorption experiments to accurately quantify free and adsorbed methane in the reservoir.

Discrimination of gas diffusion state in intact coal and tectonic coal: Model and experiment

Shouqing Lu et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the factors and states of gas diffusion in coal particles and establishes a simplified diffusion model. The experimental results show that the accuracy of this model in fitting gas diffusion data and calculating the lost gas amount is higher than other models. The research findings are of great significance for improving gas diffusion theory and predicting coal and gas outbursts.

Collaborative gas drainage technology of high and low level roadways in highly-gassy coal seam mining

Chao Xu et al.

Summary: China's coal resources are being mined at greater depths, resulting in higher gas content and emissions. The current methods of gas drainage in deep coal seams do not meet the demand, hence a new cooperative gas drainage via high and low level roadways is proposed. Research shows that this new approach effectively reduces gas concentrations in the upper corner of the working face, solving the issue of gas accumulation and overrun.

Coupled confined phase behavior and transport of methane in slit nanopores

Yuhang Wang et al.

Summary: This study investigates the impact of confined fluid physics on methane phase behavior and transport in nano-sized pores. By modifying the Peng-Robinson equation of state and combining it with molecular dynamics simulation, a new equation of state is proposed to effectively describe fluid properties under confinement. The results show that under confinement, the fluid velocities are smaller, and the transport characteristics are altered under pressure influence.

A discrete numerical simulation of micromechanics for dense coal granular systems: Implication for coal and gas outbursts

Jingjie Guo et al.

Summary: Tectonic coal under biaxial loading exhibits strain-softening, volumetric shrinkage, and shear failure. The inner porosity of the shear band is greater than that on the outside, with particle movement and force chain structural variation leading to rising porosity.

Contribution quantification of nanoscale gas transport in shale based on strongly inhomogeneous kinetic model

Baochao Shan et al.

Summary: The study reveals that slip flow dominates in the bulk region while enhanced surface diffusion mainly contributes to the total mass flux in the adsorbed region of organic pores in shale nanopores. On the other hand, no slip is observed in inorganic pores, indicating significant differences in gas transport mechanisms between organic and inorganic pores, which is crucial for a better understanding of gas transport in shale gas reservoirs.

Numerical investigation on the influence of micropore structure characteristics on gas seepage in coal with lattice Boltzmann method

Min Yan et al.

Summary: The micropore structure of coal was reconstructed and quantitatively analysed to study its impact on gas seepage in a coal reservoir. It was found that porosity and pore structure had significant effects on gas seepage velocity and apparent permeability. The study revealed that gas seepage velocity increased with porosity, with different pore structures exhibiting varied gas seepage characteristics.
