To study the importance of the adsorption mechanism of methane (CH) and carbon dioxide (CO) in coal for coalbed methane development, we aimed to reveal the influence mechanism of adsorption pressure, temperature, gas properties, water content, and other factors on gas molecular adsorption behavior from the molecular level. In this study, we selected the nonsticky coal in Chicheng Coal Mine as the research object. Based on the coal macromolecular model, we used the molecular dynamics (MD) and Monte Carlo (GCMC) methods to simulate and analyze the conditions of different pressure, temperature, and water content. The change rule and microscopic mechanism of the adsorption amount, equal adsorption heat, and interaction energy of CO and CH gas molecules in the coal macromolecular structure model establish a theoretical foundation for revealing the adsorption characteristics of coalbed methane in coal and provide technical support for further improving coalbed methane extraction.

This study aims to explore the mechanism behind the influence of stress on gas adsorption by coal during deep mining and improve the accuracy of gas disaster prevention and control. To achieve this aim, thermodynamic analysis was conducted on the process of gas adsorption by loaded coal, and modified thermodynamic model proposed by previous scholars. It is found that stress plays an important role in gas adsorption by coal.

Given the suboptimal physical properties and distinctive geological conditions of deep coalbed methane reservoirs, any reservoir damage that occurs becomes irreversible. Consequently, the protection of these deep coalbed methane reservoirs is of paramount importance. This study employs experimental techniques such as scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and micro-CT imaging to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the pore structure, mineral composition, fluid characteristics, and wettability of coal seams 3# and 15# in the northern Qinshui Basin of China.

Based on the symmetric initiation mechanism of double-wing cracks in coal rock mass induced by high-pressure electro-recoil water pressure, fracturing experiments have been performed on coal rock mass under different water pressures and discharge conditions using high-voltage electric pulse hydraulic fracturing devices. Combined with CT scans, the crack spatial distribution inside the post-break coal rock mass was analyzed and found that the edge of the water injection hole is prone to produce double-wing cracks along the drilling hole diameter. ABAQUS is used to verify the physical test and extend the test conditions, the geometric parameter change, morphological expansion rule and crack initiation mechanism of double-wing crack in coal rock mass under different discharge conditions and ground stress conditions are studied.

The recycling of low-concentration coal-bed methane (CBM) is environmentally beneficial and plays a crucial role in optimizing the energy mix. In this work, we present a strategy involving pore chemical modification to synthesize a series of bimetallic diamond coordination networks, namely CuIn(ina), CuIn(3-ain), and CuIn(3-Fina) (where ina = isonicotinic acid, 3-ain = 3-amino-isonicotinic acid, and 3-Fina = 3-fluoroisonicotinic acid). Among these, the amino-functionalized CuIn(3-ain) exhibits excellent CH adsorption capacity (1.

Effectual CH reclamation from CH/N blends by existing physisorbents in industrialization confronts the adversity of frustrated separation performance, weak structural strength, and restricted scale-up preparation. To solve aforesaid bottlenecks, herein, a strategy is presented to fabricate synergistic strong recognition binding sites in a robust and scalable optimum Cu(pma) with ultramicroporous feature regarding superb CH separation versus N. By virtue of the synergistic contribution of multiple affinities accompanied by enormous potential field overlap of pore restriction, it imparts strong recognition binding toward CH molecules.
