Abstract

A thermostatic plant for studying the adsorptive capacity and permeability of coal core was developed. The plant design allows to saturate coal with methane and to filter gas at various values of axial and lateral compression of the sample. The use of an automated system for recording differential pressure and gas volumes in the inlet and outlet tanks eliminates the need for manual control, which is especially important during long-term testing of low-permeable coals.
