Abstract

CO2enhanced CBM recovery(CO2-ECBM) is an important way for reducing CO2emission into atmosphere and enhancing coal-bed methane (CBM) recovery. The interaction between supercritical CO2and coal petrography has been investigated since the 1990s. Advances in the interaction between supercritical CO2and coal petrography are reviewed in light of certain aspects, such as the competitive multi-component gas adsorption, sorption-induced coal swelling/shrinkage and the fluid-solid coupling between fluids(such as gas, liquid and supercritical fluid) and coal petrography. It is suggested that a comprehensive feasibility demonstration is necessary for a successful application of the technology for CO2-ECBM. At the same time, it also indicated that there are some questions must be discussed in future, such as the influences on pore structure, coal adsorptivity and permeability of the reaction of ScCO2-H2O and rock and small organic matters are extracted by supercritical CO2.
