Cleats/fractures play a vital role in gas extraction from coal bed methane reservoirs. As such, fractures are identified in microcomputed tomography images by segmentation in detailed fracture characterization studies. Conventional segmentation methods include thresholdingbased, region growing, and hybrid methods. In digital images, these methods are unable to differentiate fractures from ...

Digital image processing is the use of computer algorithms to conduct image processing on digital images. A raw image of sample B is shown in Fig. 2 (a). The brightness contrasts shown in the images represent the Xray attenuation in each material, which depends on the atomic number and the density of the material (Van Geet et al., 2001).Voids in the tested coal sample are shown in black in ...
Observation on the Tanjung Enim coal outcrops has been conducted to evaluate coal and cleat characteristics, particularly those occurring at Suban and Air Laya Putih (ALP) sites. Tectonically, the region is located in the South Palembang Subbasin. In this region, there are four to five coal seams dipping to the SW direction.
A petrographic coal structure of Late Permian coals from the Liupanshui coalfield, Western Guizhou, SW China, has been distinguished for its novel macrolithological characteristics. Petrographic, mineralogical and geochemical studies have been conducted for a typical coal sample ( coal, Songhe coalmine, Panzhou County, China) and its geological genesis and significance for coalbed methane ...
Characterization of coal microstructure and the associated rock mechanical properties are of key importance for coal seam exploration, coal bed methane development, enhanced coal bed methane production and CO2 storage in deep coal seams. Considerable knowledge exists about coal chemical properties, but less is known about the nanoscale to the microscale structure of coals and how they change ...

Estimates of these parameters can be made from imagebased threedimensional (3D) characterization of coal cleats using Xray microcomputed tomography (μCT). One key step in this process, after cleat extraction, is the separation of individual cleats, without which the cleats are a connected network and statistics for different cleat sets ...
Conclusions. DigiCoal toolbox is a powerful tool for characterising fractured coal sample on multiple length scales based on 3D microCT data. It is divided into four building blocks. The building block of segmented image preprocessing can prepare the data to be favourable for subsequent quantitatively analyses.
The face cleat spacing has a greater influence on the cutting process of conical pick than that of butt cleat spacing. (3) Neglecting at the moment of contact between the conical pick and coal, the number of tensile cracks is more than twice that of the shear cracks in the entire cutting process.

Batubara yang terendapkan memberikan kenampakan geologi. Salah satu kenampakan tersebut adalah cleat pada batubara. Cleat pada batubara merupakan rengkahan yang ada pada batubara. Terdapat dua jenis cleat pada batubara, yaitu face cleat dan butt cleat, namun pada penelitian ini akan lebih memfokuskan penelitian pada face cleat.
The butt cleats and face cleats interlace with each other and form complex fracture network in cross sections of coal block. It was assumed that all the fractures in the processed images were approximate rectangles. The lengths of rectangles represent measured values, while the widths represent averaged values.
Coal seam gas (CSG) is a form of unconventional natural gas extracted from coal reservoirs. Coal is an extremely complex fractured porous medium, where gas flow is mainly controlled by its natural fracture, called "cleats." Xray microcomputed tomography (microCT) has been widely applied to obtain the 3D representation of cleat network.
Abstract. Characterisation of the cleat network serves as the basis for estimating the hydraulic and mechanical seam properties which in turn are fundamental for flow and geomechanical modelling ...

Mostaghimi et al. [26] has reviewed recent developments in microscale characterisation of coal. Methane production is mainly controlled by coal permeability [27], [28], which is governed by the geometrical properties of the cleat network, including orientation, length, spacing and aperture size [26], [29], [30]. To obtain the geometrical ...
Based on image processing and 3D reconstruction, the pores (8%), mineral (3%), and coal matrix (89%) in coal were extracted. The accuracy of the reconstruction results was verified by mercury intrusion test and proximate analysis. (2) The pore size distribution show high heterogeneity in REV space.
Coal is a complex heterogeneous and anisotropic material conformed with fractal characteristics. The pore and fracture characteristics have important influence on the dynamic disasters including rock burst and gas outburst, however, the relationship between them is not accurately investigated due to inadequate research method. The pore and fracture distribution of coal with different bursting ...

Carbon dioxide geological storage in deep underground oil and gas reservoirs or coal seam is considered a key technology to effectively mitigate carbon emissions. Deep coal seams are the potential host rock for CO2 storage, with chemical reactions occurring when coal is exposed to CO2saturated brine. However, limited studies have been conducted to reveal the effect of chemical reaction ...
