Methane emissions and demethanation of coal mines in the Upper Silesian Coal Basin between 1997 and 2016
Between 1997 and 2016 we observed important changes in hard coal extraction and methane emission in the Upper Silesian Coal Basin. Hard coal extraction in the near future will be very dangerous because it will be necessary to reach deeper methane-rich coal seams. Permanent monitoring of the volume o...
