We pump it out using a degassing system, which replaces the previous process of discharging. This gas is now converted into electricity through combustion with minimal environmental impact.
Read MoreMethane is the primary constituent of natural gas and is stored within coal as a result of the coalification process whereby plant material is converted to coal. Due to coal mining activities (and subsequent pressure decrease in coal seams), methane is released from the coal and surrounding strata. This leads to the build-up of methane in mines, which potentially creates an explosive hazard.
Read MoreCoal mine methane (CMM) is a type of gas present in active, working mine sites. This gas is extracted from the air in the coal mine helping improve safety and preventing uncontrolled release of methane to atmosphere. CMM is a mixture of methane & air released during the process of coal mining and must be vented for safety reasons.
