Models for Predicting Methane Gas Release from Coal Seams
Emission factors and calculation models for national greenhouse gas reporting, built from mine seam gas measurements and ventilation sampling, for environmental staff and inventory compilers.
Emission factors derived from measured South African seam gas data give simple models for methane released by underground mining, surface mining and coal after mining. Applied across the industry they put total methane emissions at 52 000 to 93 000 tons a year. The models follow the IPCC Tier 2 approach using country specific factors.

R1500,00
A modified alkaline barium calcium process was tested on coal mine acid drainage, using calcium hydroxide neutralisation, hydrogen sulphide metal removal and barium carbonate sulphate removal. Gypsum formation during water treatment fell by 80 per cent, cutting the sludge sent to costly downstream processing to a fifth. Temperature, reaction time, reagent ratios and feed particle size affected thermal treatment of the sludge.
