Book excerpt: Coal Bed Methane: Theories and Applications, Second Edition, captures the full lifecycle of a coal bed methane well and offers petroleum geologists and engineers a single source for a broad range of coal bed methane (CBM) applications. The vast coal resources in the United States continue to produce tremendous amounts of natural gas, contributing to a diverse range of energy assets. This book addresses crucial technical topics, including exploration and evaluation of coal bed reservoirs, hydraulic fracturing of CBM wells, coal seam degasification, and production engineering and processing, among others. The book also covers legal issues and permitting, along with an economic analysis of CBM projects. This new edition includes information on new and established research and applications, making it relevant for field geologists and engineers, as well as students. Edited by a team of coal bed methane experts from industry, academia and government with more than 100 years of combined experience in the field Contains more than 150 figures, photographs and illustrations to aid in the understanding of fundamental concepts Presents the full scope of improvements in U.S. energy independence, coal mine safety and greenhouse gas emissions

This book was released on 2009 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coalbeds are a major source of methane gas, and coalbed methane accounts for about 10% of natural gas production in the U.S. Due to the recent rise in energy demand, there is a large incentive to develop new, cheap, and renewable natural gas supplies. The current estimate of unrecoverable coal in the U.S. is 234 billion short tons; if only 1% of this coal was converted to methane, current U.S. natural gas reserves would increase by 67%. Carbon isotope (13C) analysis has shown that coalbed methane gas in the Powder River Basin (Wyoming) is of biogenic origin. A field water sample from a coalbed methane well in the PRB tested positive for a methanogenic consortium, and is capable of producing methane from Wyodak sub-bituminous B coal. This consortium was enriched and maintained in a defined medium supplemented with 50 mg/L yeast extract and 16 g/L sub-bituminous Wyodak coal as the primary carbon sources. Results from this study showed that several factors affected methane production from coal: (1) stagnant cultures inoculated with 0.25 g coal, yeast extract, and cysteine yielded 22% greater final methane production compared to cultures without coal: there was nor difference in methane production between coal and no coal cultures when both cultures were agitated at 50 rpm and 100 rpm; agitation may have prevented the formation of microbial biofilms on new coal, leading to a decrease in methane production; (2) addition of sand as an inert surface did not improve methane production; however, the addition of clay enhanced methane production because clay provided carbon substrates for methanogenesis; (3) methane production was proportional to the concentration of cysteine in the culture medium, indicating that cysteine was used as a carbon source for methanogenesis; (4) the optimal concentration (for methane production) of sulfide in the culture medium was 0.42 mM; (5) maintenance cultures enriched with coal as the sole carbon source indicated that coal can be bioconverted to methane at levels as high as 14.2 umol/g coal/day (approximately 12 SCF/ton coal/day); (6) for cultures exhibiting low methanogenesis rates, methane production was not a function of coal particle size; (7) viable methanogens were also successfully enriched from water samples taken from the Niobrara aquifer in Spink County and Dolton aquifers in McCook County, South Dakota.
