Dear Colleagues, Coal seam gas is primarily made up of methane gas, generally 9598%. This gas is also called coal bed methane (CBM) if extracted from a coal deposit as unconventional natural gas for economic purposes. Coal mine methane (CMM) must be captured for safety reasons and should be utilized.

Coal is affected by the concentrated stress disturbance of mining, the disturbance of drilling hole formation, and the concentrated stress of coal shrinkage and splitting of gas desorption from the hole wall; these result in a large number of secondary cracks that collect and leak gas. As a result, it is difficult for the coal seam sealing process to meet engineering quality sealing ...
