Physical and Chemical Methods of Methane Utilization in Ukrainian Coal Mines

Abstract:

Associated gas of coal and minor oil deposits emitting into the atmosphere is considered to be valuable energy resource requiring proper utilization both from the economic and environmental viewpoints. It is proposed to develop mobile gas-hydrate plants to utilize associated gas of mines and minor oil and gas deposits. Hydrogenerating technology to collect and utilize coalmine methane immediately at the degassing wells of coal mines and oil extraction platform has been developed. Thermobaric parameters along with physical and chemical effect upon hydrate-formation process have been substantiated and selected. Certain degree of mechanical impact as well as magnetic field and ultrasound influence upon the process of hydrate formation has been proved. The technology will make it possible to obtain end product within the degassing area for its further transportation to consumers at long distances.
