Economical point in sequestering CO2 into coal bed - methane production on based Turkish coal mines

Unmineable coal seams can be used to store CO₂ because the CO₂ molecules fill the pores and attach to the surface of coal. The technical feasibility, however, depends on the permeability of the coal bed. In the process of filling pores and absorption to the coal surface, the sequestering the CO₂ in coal mines releases methane in Turkish coal mines. Burning the resultant methane, however, would negate some of the economic view of sequestering the CO₂. Economic advantages of the sequestering the CO₂ were defined for economical view by coal bed methane gas production and green energy production in Turkey. Also economic view of designed work was comprising sequestering the CO₂ into the coal bed in order to improve coal bed methane production in Sirnak Asphaltite Coal Mines. CO₂ capturing, transporting and sequestering costs with methane drainage decreased from original cost of 14 $/ton CO₂ to near11$/ton of CO₂.
