Characterizing nanoscale pores and its structure in coal: Experimental investigation

Abstract: One of the challenges in evaluating and estimating the gas storage and migration of coal has been the investigation of complex pore structures, especially in the nanoscale. The present study provides new insights into nanoscale pore types, and the genesis, classification, and structure characteristics of high-rank coal by investigating 10 anthracite coals in the Shanxi Formation and Taiyuan Formation of the Xinjing Coal Mine in the Qinshui Basin, North China. A series of experiments that combined the qualitati… Show more

“…The coal pores differ widely in pore size and pore shape and can be categorized into the matrix pore and cleat pore. The cylindrical matrix pores with a diameter of 1–100 nm account for more than 97% of coal pore space, meaning that coal-bed methane (CBM) is primarily adsorbed in the matrix pores. , The slit-shaped cleat pores, however, are 0.1–10 μm in width and 1–3 cm in length. The cleats are well connected to one another and thus offer the major contribution to fluid mobility. , While the matrix pore contribution to fluid mobility is small, the desorption of methane (CH 4 ) therein results in significant matrix shrinkage and cleat permeability increase. , …”

“…Before MIP, the sample was dried at 373 k for 12 h, and then evacuated at 50 umHg for 8 min to discharge the residual gas and moisture. According to the suggestions of Gan et al [22] and Zhao et al [23], the contact angle between mercury and pore surface was set as 130 • and the mercury surface tension was set as 0.485 J/m 2 .…”
