Molecular dynamics simulations of CH4 diffusion in kaolinite: influence of water content

Abstract: Understanding the interaction of CH 4 with kaolinite is significant for researchers in the fields of coalbed CH 4 and shale gas. The diffusion behaviors of CH 4 in kaolinite with water contents ranging from 0 to 5 wt% have been analyzed by molecular dynamics simulations. The results of the simulations indicate that CH 4 molecules can jump between adjacent holes in the kaolinite matrix. CH 4 diffusion coefficient was very low (3.28 9 10 -9 m 2 /s) and increased linearly with the increasing of water content. As … Show more

“…The η of moisture-equilibrated coals at each CO 2 injection pressure is greater than that of dry coals, indicating that H 2 O could increase the CH 4 desorption ratio. However, the increasing CH 4 desorption ratio does not indicate the enhanced CH 4 desorption amount ( n des,CH 4 ) due to the fact that H 2 O can decrease n abs,CH 4 ,initial Figure displays the n des,CH 4 at displacement equilibrium.…”

“…With the continuous increase in adsorption pressure, the mechanical compression induced by pressure continues to increase, while the increase in adsorbed CH 4 is limited. 31 As a result, the volume of anthracite decreases. After electrochemical modification, the adsorption capacity of anthracite to methane decreased, resulting in the volume change of anthracite sample after modification being smaller than that before modification in the initial stage.…”

“…If the length of the borehole is too large, due to the attenuation of the negative pressure in the borehole, the gas content at the bottom of the long borehole will be high, making it difficult to reach the drainage index. If the length of the borehole is too short, it will result in low efficiency of gas drainage measures [23][24][25]. At present, the methods to determine the effective gas drainage radius include on-site measurement and theoretical calculation methods [26,27].…”
