Abstract

We proposed the improved Langmuir adsorption relations considering volume change effect of coal matrix during primary production of CBM and Enhanced-CBM with injection of carbon dioxide or CCS in coalseam but also volumetric strain. To verify this model, experimental data of pure gas adsorption such as $CO_2$, $CH_4$, and $N_2$ on coals were used to compare conventional Langmuir model with this model. From the results, we obtained that the larger adsorption capacity of coal and the higher adsorption affinity of gas, the larger error occur with Langmuir model. Using this model, however, we found not only substantially better fit in all condition but also reasonable volumetric strain of the coal matrix. We also applied this volume modified pure gas adsorption model to the IAS model to describe gas adsorption and volumetric strain for mixed gas. This modified-IAS model fitting experimental data by Hall et al(1994) improved accuracy of mixed gas adsorption calculation compared with conventional model.

본 연구에서는 CBM의 1차 생산뿐 아니라 $CO_2$$N_2$ 주입을 통한 ECBM, 혹은 지중저장을 목적으로 석탄층에 $CO_2$를 주입할 때 발생할 수 있는 암체의 부피변화 영향을 고려하여 기존의 Langmuir 흡착 관계식을 개선하였다. 본 모델의 검증을 위해 $CO_2$$CH_4$, $N_2$의 단일성분 흡착실험 데이터에 기존 Langmuir 모델값과 본 모델의 결과값을 비교하였다. 그 결과, 기존 모델에서는 흡착용량이 큰 석탄일수록, 흡착친화도가 큰 가스일수록 실험값과 모델값 사이의 오차가 커지는 경향이 나타났지만 본 모델에서는 모든 조건에서 실험결과를 잘 묘사하였고 본 모델을 통해 예측한 부피변형률 역시 실험값과 유사함을 확인하였다. 이렇게 개선된 단일성분 흡착모델을 혼합가스의 흡착모델인 IAS 모델에 적용하여 부피변화가 고려된 IAS모델로 개선하였다. 그 결과 혼합가스에 대한 흡착거동 역시 기존 모델에 비해 정확도를 높였고 이는 Hall 등(1994)이 수행한 혼합가스의 흡착실험결과와의 매칭을 통해 확인하였다.
