Explore Few Interesting yet Vital Facts about Coal Bed Methane (CBM)!

Coal Bed Methane is a vital source of energy in several countries. It is a natural gas that is extracted from coal beds. CBM is highly used around the world due to its clean-burning fuel property.

In the latest interview, Randeep Singh Grewal also talks about this useful natural gas. He told about his plan to develop CBM programs outside China. In the interview, he highlights that CBM is of great use for the countries like India, China, UK, Poland, etc. Randeep Singh Grewal is the founder of Green Dragon Gas which is one of the main market players of CBM gas.

Are you interested to know more about this famous and useful Coal Bed Methane gas? If yes, then here are some amazing facts, issues, controversies, and benefits related to it mentioned. Let’s explore-

Know some interesting facts related to the CBM-

·        As per a report published by the US-based academy, CBM produces half of the carbon emissions to generate the electricity as generated by coal-fired electricity.

·        Also, CBM has the huge capacity to generate employment around the world

·  It is environment-friendly gas that will not only reduce the carbon in the environment but will be a cheap source of fuel.

·      Use and extraction of CBM in India will surely cheaper the prices of the bill and a good source of fuel to generate the electricity.

·  It is a great unconventional gas that has been used for utility and industrial purposes globally

·        CBM is drilled and extracted from coal deposits

·   The prime use of CBM is- power generation, transportation, and manufacturing. Apart from this, it is used for several other purposes.

·   Green Dragon Gas Ltd, Dart Energy Corporation, Black Diamond energy, Senex energy limited, Reliance power limited, and others are the main market players of CBM gas.

But do you know that Coal Bed Methane gas is surrounded by controversy because it requires pumping large volumes of water to lower downing the hydrostatic pressure to liberate the gas? And, water used by it becomes unsuitable for agricultural activities. This water adversely impacted the soil structure. For reducing the impact of the water used during the production of CBM, this water is sent to the wastewater treatment plant to purify it. After that, it is re-injected to another section for the evaporation process to desalination of it.
