Cover Story: Coal is still being used for a variety of purposes, one of them being coal bed methane (CBM), which is extracted from coal seams. Many investigations have shown that the CBM approach is ineffective at extracting methane. The approach of injecting gases into the coal seam has been proven to result in a maximum methane recovery of up to 90%. Enhanced coal bed methane (ECBM) recovery using gas injection can provide increased methane extraction depending on the characteristics of the coal and the gas that is used. Accurate prediction of the extent of gas adsorption by coal is therefore important. This review discusses the state of research developments regarding gas adsorption on coal surfaces and pores using experimental and simulation methods following the injection of CO2, N2, or CO2-N2 and examines coal gas adsorption characteristics to ECBM recovery. View this paper
