Abstract

Gas drainage technologies are the main means of lowering the gas content of coal seams and eliminating the gas hazard of coalmines. As China has a huge reservoir of coalbed methane (CBM) resources, the extraction and utilization of coal seam gas resources can realize the significant triple benefits of ensuring the safe mining of coal resources, promoting the clean and efficient use of coalmine gas, and protecting the environment.
