This project aims to produce a new generation of high flux, inorganic membranes for desalination in the coal seam gas (CSG) industry. The key concept of this research is an inorganic membrane with an intelligent, hierarchical and highly percolative structure...
-
This project aims to deliver breakthroughs in gas separation technologies for the production of helium from natural gas. Global demand for helium in critical medical, scientific and industrial applications is projected to grow at around 5 % pa. To overcome...
-
The unique structure of coal may offer opportunities for the development of new methods for increasing productivity of low permeability coals. Cleat de-mineralisation and oxidation of the macromolecular structure of coal have been identified as possible methods of permeability enhancement...
-
This project aims to develop a better understanding of where and how water occlusion (blockage) may occur with a coal seam gas reservoir, and to identify strategies to prevent water blockages from occurring. A microfluidic methodology will be used to...
-
It is highly desirable to reduce the volume of saline CSG water, but the technologies available to achieve this are severely impacted on by fouling and mineral scaling. Of concern are the build up of organics, formation of mineral scales...
-
The project will include a comprehensive review of existing scientific literature and current academic/industry research programs; laboratory testing of different methods of increasing permeability in coals from a range of representative coal samples; and development of new modelling methods that...
-
This research will measure how heating the coal seam will affect the diffusion flow and how this may impact well productivity over time. This investigation will also review existing and new methods for heating the subsurface and provide a preliminary...
-
This proposal seeks to determine conditions under which fine particles create production problems for CSG operations. Once the controlling mechanisms, both for formation and migration, are illuminated for a particular location, then methods for controlling and mitigating the impact of...
-
This study shows volume of pores occupied by free gas becomes smaller when moisture content and confining pressure are high. Methane dissolving tests in four coal seam water samples under set temperatures and pressures show that methane solubility increases with...
-
This project will develop composting technology to stabilise the biomass harvested from coal seam gas ponds. A feature of the project is consideration of toxic algal metabolites, and the potential for the release and degradation of these compounds during stabilisation.
