The production of ultra-light weight coke proppants for fracturing coal bed methane deposits is presented. The raw material is blast-furnace coke, foundry coke and a coke breeze. The method used obtains coke proppants that meet all the requirements of the ISO 13503-2:2006/Amd.1:2009 standard for proppants used in hydraulic fracturing, with the exception of crush resistance. They have porosity up to 40 % and they are mainly macroporous materials, containing predominantly cylindrical, less frequently bottle-shaped or wedge-shaped pores. The proppants with the lowest crush rate were obtained from the blast furnace coke (CSR > 65 %).

<div><div>Peatlands, an important organic carbon reservoir, play a crucial role in the global carbon cycle. The carbon accumulation of peatlands, reflected by net primary productivity (NPP), can have an impact on global carbon cycling and climate change. The late Carboniferous - early Permian is an icehouse period, during which numerous thick coal beds were accumulated in the North China Block (NCB) located within a low-latitude area, providing an opportunity for studying the carbon cycling under the glacial and interglacial climates. In this study, spectral analysis was performed on the natural gamma-ray (GR) logs of the Benxi, Taiyuan, and Shanxi formations of the late Carboniferous to early Permian in a borehole section located within the Ordos Basin in western NCB. Cyclic signals related to astronomical orbital parameters were identified, including long eccentricity (∼405 kyr), short eccentricity (∼125 kyr and ∼ 95 kyr), and obliquity (∼35.5 kyr). A floating astronomical time scale was established by using the long eccentricity signal, and this time scale was further used to constrain the durations of the accumulation of coal-forming paleo-peatlands. The paleo-peatland for the C<sub>8+9</sub> coal seam (9 m thick) of the Taiyuan Formation lasted approximately 203 kyr, and the paleo-peatland for the C5 coal seam (4 m thick) of the Shanxi Formation lasted approximately 46 kyr. Using this timeframe and an estimation of carbon loss during coalification, the carbon accumulation rates of the late Carboniferous - early Permian low-latitude peatlands are calculated to be 104.7 ± 14.9 g·<em>C</em>·m<sup>−2</sup>·a<sup>−1</sup>for the C<sub>8+9</sub> coal seam and 192.6 ± 11.6 g·<em>C</em>·m<sup>−2</sup>·a<sup>−1</sup>for the C<sub>5</sub> coal seam. The NPP of the paleo-peatlands, which deducts a part of the carbon loss caused by the loss of CO<sub>2</sub> and CH<sub>4</sub>, can be calculated from the carbon accumulation rates. The calculated average NPP of the paleo-peatlands for the C<sub>8+9</sub> seam was 199 ± 28 g·<em>C</em>·m<sup>−2</sup>·a<sup>−1</sup>, and that of the C<sub>5</sub> seam was 366 ± 22 g·<em>C</em>·m<sup>−2</sup>·a<sup>−1</sup>. In combination with the absolute time scale calibrated by high-precision U<img>Pb dates from Palougou section in western NCB, the depositional time of the investigated strata was constrained to be from 300.1 ± 0.5 Ma to 294.3 ± 0.5 Ma. The coal seams of the late Carboniferous to early Permian in the NCB correspond to an interglacial interval around ∼298 Ma. The peatland with a lower NPP corresponds to the warming stage and the peatland with a higher NPP corresponds to the cooling stage. This implies that a lower NPP of paleo-peatland tends to be less efficient in carbon storage, and could not reduce the atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub> substantially. In contrast, a higher NPP of paleo-peatland tends to accelerate carbon fixation, leading to temperature decrease and the termination of interglacial interval in
泥炭地是一个重要的有机碳库,在全球碳循环中发挥着至关重要的作用。泥炭地的碳积累通过净初级生产力(NPP)反映出来,可对全球碳循环和气候变化产生影响。石炭纪晚期-二叠纪早期是冰室时期,位于低纬度地区的华北地块积累了大量厚煤层,为研究冰期和间冰期气候下的碳循环提供了机会。本研究对位于华北地块西部鄂尔多斯盆地的一个钻孔剖面中石炭纪晚期至二叠纪早期的本溪、太原和山西地层的天然伽马射线(GR)测井资料进行了光谱分析。发现了与天文轨道参数有关的周期信号,包括长偏心率(∼405 kyr)、短偏心率(∼125 kyr和∼95 kyr)和斜度(∼35.5 kyr)。利用长偏心率信号建立了浮动天文时间尺度,并进一步利用这一时间尺度来约束成煤古陆的堆积时间。太原地层 C8+9 煤层(厚 9 米)的古陆持续了约 203 千年,山西地层 C5 煤层(厚 4 米)的古陆持续了约 46 千年。根据这一时间范围和煤化过程中碳损失的估计,计算出石炭纪晚期-二叠纪早期低纬度泥炭地的碳积累率,C8+9煤层为104.7 ± 14.9 g-C-m-2-a-1,C5煤层为192.6 ± 11.6 g-C-m-2-a-1。根据碳积累率可以计算出古高原的净生产力(NPP),其中扣除了二氧化碳和甲烷流失造成的部分碳损失。计算得出的 C8+9 地层古高原平均净生产力为 199 ± 28 g-C-m-2-a-1,C5 地层为 366 ± 22 g-C-m-2-a-1。结合由北卡罗来纳州西部帕卢古断面的高精度 UPb 年代标定的绝对时间尺度,所调查地层的沉积时间被推定为 300.1 ± 0.5 Ma 至 294.3 ± 0.5 Ma。北加州盆地石炭纪晚期至二叠纪早期的煤层对应的冰期约为∼298 Ma。净生产力较低的泥炭地对应于气候变暖阶段,净生产力较高的泥炭地对应于气候变冷阶段。这意味着净生产力较低的古泥炭地往往碳储存效率较低,不能大幅减少大气中的二氧化碳。相反,古冰川地较高的净生产力往往会加速碳固定,导致气温下降和二叠纪早期间冰期的结束。本研究的结果可以揭示古冰川发育与同期古气候记录之间的关系,有助于预测未来气候变化。

The middle (Miaolingian) to upper (Furongian) Cambrian Alum Shale Formation in the DBH15/73 core from south-central Sweden was exposed to local heat from a diabase intrusion, providing an opportunity to investigate the molecular geochemical response to thermal stress. Organic petrological observations and biomarker analyses were conducted to study changes in maturity-indicating parameters and the distribution of high molecular weight polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) during the maturation process. The DBH15/73 samples exhibit a maturity gradient, ranging from immature at the base to mature in the upper part of the Alum Shale Formation. Multiple maturity-based biomarker parameters were analyzed, and Ts/(Ts + Tm), M30/(M30 + H30), and Hopane H32: 22S/(22S + 22R) of saturated hydrocarbon parameters are found to be more reliable. Ratios of alkylnaphthalenes, alkylphenanthrenes, and alkyldibenzothiophenes (MNR, DNR, TMNr, TeMNr, MPI-1, MPR, MDR, and DMDR) also showed consistent correlations with thermal maturity. Thermal maturation impacted the macromolecular structure, resulting in the aromatization and demethylation, leading to MPy/Py, MChy/Chy, and the sum of unsubstituted 5-ring/4-ring PAH ratios changes with maturity. The influence of thermal maturation outweighs that of uranium radiation in this study, and maturity varies mainly with depth.

Although limestone-marl bedding couplets in the Cenomanian-Turonian Bridge Creek Limestone (BCL) have been widely attributed to changes in environmental conditions ultimately driven by Earth's orbital cycles, the causes of short-term variations in organic matter (OM) enrichment and composition (i.e., types and proportions of different macerals) in the bedding couplets through the BCL have rarely been examined in detail. To fill this gap, this study examined the BCL through an integrated sedimentological and organic petrology analysis. With the well-developed depositional context, organic petrology analysis was conducted on 17 samples from seven limestone-marl bedding couplets consisting of different sedimentary facies types in the USGS #1 Portland Core to systematically examine differences in the maceral composition among different expressions of the limestone-marl bedding couplets. The BCL in the #1 Portland Core has overall low thermal maturity (∼0.60 % vitrinite reflectance). All BCL samples contain dominant marine OM including bituminite (dominantly micrinized), alginite, and liptodetrinite and minor but persistently present terrigenous OM including vitrinite and inertinite. The OM composition and characteristics, combined with sedimentary facies characteristics and TOC data, suggest that the OM enrichment and preservation through the BCL is subject to various processes such as bottom current reworking and burial, bioturbation, early diagenesis, and pulses of volcanic ash input. The interplay of these processes led to changes in sedimentation rate, which can be associated with short-term relative changes in sea level and episodic volcanic input. Direct examinations of the composition and texture of OM in fine-grained sedimentary rocks can provide valuable insights into the causes of short-term variations in depositional conditions on a process basis, which should be integrated with other datasets (e.g., sedimentology, geochemistry) to fully resolve the specific mechanism(s) that modulated sedimentation in similar fine-grained marine systems characterized by apparently cyclic lithological alternations.
尽管人们普遍认为仙人纪-都龙纪桥溪石灰岩(BCL)中的石灰岩-泥灰岩层理对偶是由地球轨道周期最终驱动的环境条件变化造成的,但很少有人详细研究过BCL层理对偶中有机质(OM)富集和组成(即不同大分子的类型和比例)短期变化的原因。为了填补这一空白,本研究通过沉积学和有机岩石学综合分析对 BCL 进行了研究。在完善的沉积背景下,对美国地质调查局 1 号波特兰岩芯中由不同沉积面类型组成的 7 个石灰岩-泥灰岩层对中的 17 个样品进行了有机岩石学分析,以系统地研究石灰岩-泥灰岩层对中不同表现形式的岩浆成分差异。波特兰 1 号岩心中的 BCL 总体热成熟度较低(玻璃光泽反射率为 0.60%)。所有 BCL 样品都含有主要的海洋 OM,包括沥青质(主要是微粒化)、藻酸盐和锂辉石,以及少量但持续存在的陆相 OM,包括玻璃石和惰性石。OM 的组成和特征与沉积面特征和总有机碳数据相结合,表明通过 BCL 富集和保存的 OM 受各种过程的影响,如底流再加工和掩埋、生物扰动、早期成岩作用和火山灰输入脉冲。这些过程的相互作用导致了沉积速率的变化,而沉积速率的变化可能与海平面的短期相对变化和偶发性火山输入有关。对细粒沉积岩中有机质的组成和质地进行直接研究,可以提供有价值的见解,从过程的基础上了解沉积条件短期变化的原因,这些见解应与其他数据集(如沉积学、地球化学)结合起来,以全面解决调节以明显的周期性岩性变化为特征的类似细粒海洋系统沉积作用的具体机制问题。

This research discusses new data on the geochemistry of tungsten (W) in the coals of North Asia (Siberia, the Russian Far East, and Kazakhstan), based on analyses of over two thousand samples. In general, the studied coals are enriched in W in comparison with the average value for coals all over the world. In different regions of the studied area, coal deposits with anomalous W concentrations (up to commercially important concentrations) were found and the factors controlling the W content in these coals were investigated. Samples were selected in order to study both the vertical variation in W through the seams and laterally to determine its distribution across the coal basins. Seams with average W concentrations generally show some enrichment at the margins of the seam (Zilbermints law). In anomalously enriched seams, however, several patterns of W distribution are observed. Most commonly the base of the seam is enriched and concentrations decrease upwards, less commonly the reverse is the case and rarely the central parts of the seam are enriched. The results from the present work demonstrate that W is predominantly organically associated. In lignites, more than 80 % is concentrated in humic substances with the remainder in mineral matter. However, as the organic matter transforms during coalification some of the W passes into solution leading both to the formation of authigenic minerals and also loss from the seam. The nature of the W distributions in the coal seams indicates a predominantly hydrogenous (aqueous) mechanism of transport and accumulation. It is concluded that the composition of the rock types surrounding the coal-forming basins and the hydrogeochemical conditions of these basins and deposits are critical factors in determining the levels of W accumulation in the coals. The elevated and anomalous tungsten concentrations in coal and peat described in this work are due to the leaching of tungsten rich rocks, primarily granitoids and tungsten-bearing greisens and skarns.
本研究根据对两千多个样本的分析,讨论了北亚(西伯利亚、俄罗斯远东和哈萨克斯坦)煤中钨(W)地球化学的新数据。总体而言,与全世界煤炭的平均值相比,所研究煤炭中的钨含量较高。在研究区域的不同地区,发现了W含量异常的煤层(达到重要的商业浓度),并对控制这些煤炭中W含量的因素进行了研究。选择样本的目的是研究煤层中 W 的垂直变化,以及确定 W 在整个煤盆地中的横向分布。具有平均 W 浓度的煤层通常会在煤层边缘出现一些富集现象(Zilbermints 法)。然而,在异常富集的煤层中,可以观察到几种 W 分布模式。最常见的是煤层底部富集,浓度向上递减,较少见的是相反的情况,很少有煤层中部富集的情况。目前的研究结果表明,W 主要与有机物有关。在褐煤中,80%以上富集在腐殖质中,其余富集在矿物物质中。然而,随着煤化过程中有机物的转化,部分 W 进入溶液,形成自生矿物,并从煤层中流失。煤层中 W 分布的性质表明,主要是一种氢(水)迁移和积累机制。结论是,成煤盆地周围岩石类型的组成以及这些盆地和矿床的水文地球化学条件是决定煤中 W 累积水平的关键因素。这项研究中描述的煤炭和泥炭中钨浓度的升高和异常是由于富含钨的岩石,主要是花岗岩和含钨灰岩和矽卡岩的浸出作用造成的。

In general, the studied coals are enriched in W in comparison with the average value for coals all over the world. In different regions of the studied area, coal deposits with anomalous W concentrations (up to commercially important concentrations) were found and the factors controlling the W content in these coals were investigated. Samples were selected in order to study both the vertical variation in W through the seams and laterally to determine its distribution across the coal basins. Seams with average W concentrations generally show some enrichment at the margins of the seam (Zilbermints law). In anomalously enriched seams, however, several patterns of W distribution are observed. Most commonly the base of the seam is enriched and concentrations decrease upwards, less commonly the reverse is the case and rarely the central parts of the seam are enriched. The results from the present work demonstrate that W is predominantly organically associated. In lignites, more than 80 % is concentrated in humic substances with the remainder in mineral matter. However, as the organic matter transforms during coalification some of the W passes into solution leading both to the formation of authigenic minerals and also loss from the seam. The nature of the W distributions in the coal seams indicates a predominantly hydrogenous (aqueous) mechanism of transport and accumulation. It is concluded that the composition of the rock types surrounding the coal-forming basins and the hydrogeochemical conditions of these basins and deposits are critical factors in determining the levels of W accumulation in the coals. The elevated and anomalous tungsten concentrations in coal and peat described in this work are due to the leaching of tungsten rich rocks, primarily granitoids and tungsten-bearing greisens and skarns.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":13864,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Coal Geology","volume":"295 ","pages":"Article 104639"},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142560685","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The substantial gas enrichment in shales of the Ordovician–Silurian transition is associated with the development of the organic matter (OM)-rich source rock. While organic matter enrichment has been linked to intensive volcanism, it remains a challenge to precisely evaluate the impact of the volcanism on substantial gas enrichment containing the largest gas storage capacity. This study focused on consecutive borehole shale samples from the Wufeng–Longmaxi formations during the Ordovician–Silurian transition in southern China. We conducted a comprehensive analysis, integrating the major geological volcanism with high-resolution analysis, including QEMSCAN, argon-ion SEM, thin-section examination, XRD mineralogy, TOC, Hg concentration, petrophysical properties and nanopore structure analysis (low-pressure CO2/N2 gas adsorption, helium porosity and permeability). The results link the significant shale gas enrichment in Wufeng–Longmaxi formations to intensive volcanism across the Ordovician–Silurian transition. We identified the most favorable shale intervals in the lower Longmaxi Formation, aligning with the peak period of volcanism. This period showed synchronous spikes in Hg, Hg/TOC, and TOC contents. Shale deposited during this favorable paleoenvironment exhibited the highest values of TOC, porosity, permeability, specific surface area, pore volume, and maximum gas adsorption capacity, leading to the largest amount of gas content and substantial gas enrichment. Our work, therefore, provides new insights into identifying the most favorable shale gas resources. This knowledge assists in accurate predictions of the stratigraphic ‘sweet spot’ intervals for large shale gas storage capacity, providing crucial information for engineering explorations and developments in shale formations.
奥陶纪-志留纪过渡页岩中大量富集的天然气与富含有机质(OM)的源岩的发育有关。虽然有机质富集与密集的火山活动有关,但要精确评估火山活动对含有最大储气能力的大量天然气富集的影响,仍然是一项挑战。本研究重点研究了中国南方奥陶纪-志留纪过渡时期五峰-龙马溪地层的连续钻孔页岩样本。我们进行了综合分析,将主要地质火山活动与高分辨率分析相结合,包括 QEMSCAN、氩离子扫描电镜、薄片检查、XRD 矿物学、总有机碳、汞浓度、岩石物理特性和纳米孔结构分析(低压 CO2/N2 气体吸附、氦气孔隙度和渗透率)。结果显示,五峰-龙马溪地层中页岩气的显著富集与奥陶纪-志留纪过渡时期的密集火山活动有关。我们在龙马溪地层下部发现了最有利的页岩层段,与火山活动的高峰期相吻合。这一时期的汞、Hg/TOC 和 TOC 含量出现了同步峰值。在这一有利的古环境中沉积的页岩表现出最高的总有机碳值、孔隙度、渗透率、比表面积、孔隙体积和最大气体吸附能力,从而导致最大的气体含量和大量的气体富集。因此,我们的工作为确定最有利的页岩气资源提供了新的见解。这些知识有助于准确预测页岩气储量大的地层 "甜蜜点 "区间,为页岩地层的工程勘探和开发提供重要信息。

Understanding the differential diagenetic evolution of different lithofacies is essential for assessing the spatial development of shale reservoirs. These insights are crucial in predicting sealing integrity and storage capacity for sequestered CO2. In this study, we examined seven wells from the Cretaceous Qingshankou Formation in the Songliao Basin, China, with vitrinite reflectance (Ro) values ranging from 0.60 % to 1.62 %. Thin section-based petrographic observations, coupled with QEMSCAN analysis, were used to classify the different lithofacies. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis of clay minerals, field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), and energy-dispersive spectrum (EDS) analyses were employed to analyze the mineral textures, pore types, and diagenetic pathways. The results showed that early diagenetic mineral phases include calcite cement (1st phase), framboidal and microcrystalline pyrite, ferroan and non-ferroan dolomite. Intermediate diagenetic mineral phases were marked by illitization of smectite, chlorite formed by chloritization of smectite and alteration of K-feldspar, and the formation of authigenic albite and quartz, calcite cement (2nd phase) and ankerite. Given the higher potential reaction rate of CO2-fluid‑carbonate systems, we propose that the lithofacies dominated by carbonate minerals are not effective for CO2 storage, even in short-term. In contrast, lithofacies rich in feldspar and clay minerals are likely to be more effective for long-term CO2 storage.
了解不同岩性的不同成岩演化过程对于评估页岩储层的空间发展至关重要。这些见解对于预测密封完整性和封存二氧化碳的能力至关重要。在这项研究中,我们考察了中国松辽盆地白垩系青山口地层的七口井,其玻璃光泽反射率(Ro)值从 0.60 % 到 1.62 % 不等。通过薄片岩相观察和 QEMSCAN 分析,对不同岩性进行了分类。粘土矿物的 X 射线衍射(XRD)分析、场发射扫描电子显微镜(FE-SEM)和能量色散光谱(EDS)分析被用来分析矿物纹理、孔隙类型和成岩途径。结果表明,早期成岩矿物相包括方解石胶结物(第一相)、镜铁黄铁矿和微晶黄铁矿、铁白云岩和非铁白云岩。中期成岩矿物相的特征是闪长岩的照明化、闪长岩的绿泥石化和 K 长石的蚀变,以及自生白云石和石英、方解石胶结物(第 2 相)和绿泥石的形成。鉴于二氧化碳-流体-碳酸盐系统的潜在反应速率较高,我们认为以碳酸盐矿物为主的岩相对二氧化碳封存无效,即使在短期内也是如此。相比之下,富含长石和粘土矿物的岩相可能对长期封存二氧化碳更有效。

This research presents an integrated approach to organic petrographical and geochemical characteristics of the Upper Permian Newcastle Coal Measures outcropping in the northern Sydney Basin, southeast Australia. Twenty-seven coal, coaly mudstone and mudstone samples were collected and analyzed by using organic petrography (maceral composition and vitrinite reflectance) techniques, Rock–Eval pyrolysis, bitumen extraction and gas chromatography - mass spectrometry (GC–MS). The obtained results indicate that the samples exhibit promising gas-prone source rock potential and contain a predominantly terrestrial in origin organic matter, with limited contribution by marine organisms. The prevalence of terrestrial organic matter is inferred by the presence of collotelinite and sporinite macerals in most of the samples and the ternary plot of C27, C28 and C29 regular steranes. Further, the low C27/C29 ratio, the cross-plots of C27/(C27 + C29) regular steranes vs. Pr/Ph ratio, the C27/C29 vs. Pr/Ph and the C24 tetracyclic/C26 tricyclic terpane ratio point also to the terrestrial origin of the organic matter. The obtained values of vitrinite reflectance, Tmax, OEP27–31 and CPI25–33, along the cross plots of 20S/(20S + 20R) versus ββ/(ββ + αα) suggest that the samples are immature and were subjected to a low burial depth. The examined samples indicate accumulation in a delta-plain environment of deposition, under fluctuating oxic/anoxic conditions, in a humid climatic zone that is characterized by dry periods, interrupting the longer-termed humid climatic regime. This research adds knowledge on the source rock potential in the northern Sydney Basin and on the environmental and climatic setting of a time interval just prior to the major Permian - Triassic climatic crisis.
本研究采用综合方法研究了澳大利亚东南部悉尼盆地北部出露的上二叠统纽卡斯尔煤层的有机岩石学和地球化学特征。采集了 27 个煤、煤泥岩和泥岩样本,并采用有机岩石学(宏观组成和玻璃光泽反射率)技术、Rock-Eval 热解、沥青萃取和气相色谱-质谱(GC-MS)进行了分析。研究结果表明,样本具有良好的气源岩潜力,主要含有陆生有机物,海洋生物的贡献有限。大多数样本中都含有胶石和孢石大块矿物质,以及 C27、C28 和 C29 正甾烷的三元图谱,由此可以推断陆生有机物的普遍存在。此外,较低的 C27/C29 比率、C27/(C27 + C29)常规甾烷与 Pr/Ph 比率的交叉图、C27/C29 与 Pr/Ph 比率的交叉图以及 C24 四环/C26 三环萜烷比率也都表明有机物质来源于陆地。沿着 20S/(20S + 20R)与 β/(β + αα) 的交叉图,所获得的玻璃光泽反射率、Tmax、OEP27-31 和 CPI25-33 值表明,样品尚未成熟,埋藏深度较低。所考察的样品表明,这些样品堆积于三角洲平原沉积环境中,处于缺氧/缺氧波动条件下,位于湿润气候区,该气候区的特点是干燥,打断了长期的湿润气候体系。这项研究增加了对悉尼盆地北部源岩潜力的了解,以及对二叠纪-三叠纪重大气候危机前一段时间的环境和气候背景的了解。

Stratal stacking patterns and factors influencing peat accumulation in coastal and continental settings represent a significant problem in studying coal-bearing sequences. To address this issue, this work focused on the Cretaceous-Paleogene Guaduas Formation on the Checua-Lenguazaque Syncline (CLS) coalfield in the Eastern Cordillera Basin (Colombian Andes). This study relies on geological survey, facies analysis, sequence stratigraphy, organic geochemistry, and coal petrography. Through these methods, depositional systems and sequences were characterized, and their relationship with coal composition was established. Sedimentary facies were categorized into four Facies Associations (FAs): lagoon, tidal flat, delta plain, and mixed fluvial system. Five T-R sequences (S1 to S5, in ascending order) were identified. S1 consists of lagoon and tidal sandstone, mudstone, and coal. S2-S4 comprise tidal, deltaic, and fluvial deposits. S5 is composed mainly of deltaic and fluvial facies. Thick coal seams (> 0.7 m) were concentrated in the regressive system tracts of S1 and S3, while the transgressive coals were deposited in S2-S3 and are associated with tidal environments. The organic petrography showed enrichment in vitrinite (30.00–85.20 %), while liptinite (0.00–16.60 %) and inertinite (4.60–34.40 %) varied according to depth and paleoenvironments. CLS coalfield displays an environmental evolution from shallow marine and lagoon deposits to deltaic and fluvial environments. Minor sea-level fluctuations, changes in accommodation, siliciclastic influx, and plant community distinguish this sedimentary succession. The deposition of the Guaduas Formation is characterized by a prograding pattern with dominant shallowing-upward cycles in a high accommodation setting. The organic matter accumulated under limno-telmatic to telmatic conditions in mesotrophic to ombrotrophic environments with nutrients derived mainly from rainfall. The paleoclimate for the Guaduas Formation indicates wet and hot conditions for flora expansion. This investigation determined paleoenvironments of the Maastrichtian-Paleocene coastal to fluvial successions within the tropical latitudes, indicating a strong relationship between depositional systems, sequence stratigraphy, paleoclimate, and coal composition.
沿海和大陆环境下的泥炭层堆积模式和影响因素是研究含煤层序的一个重要问题。为解决这一问题,本研究重点研究了哥伦比亚安第斯山脉东科迪勒拉盆地 Checua-Lenguazaque Syncline(CLS)煤田的白垩纪-古近纪 Guaduas 地层。这项研究依赖于地质调查、岩相分析、层序地层学、有机地球化学和煤岩相学。通过这些方法,确定了沉积系统和层序的特征,以及它们与煤炭成分的关系。沉积面被划分为四个面系(FAs):泻湖、潮汐平地、三角洲平原和混合河道系统。确定了五个 T-R 序列(S1 至 S5,按升序排列)。S1 由泻湖和潮汐砂岩、泥岩和煤组成。S2 至 S4 由潮汐沉积、三角洲沉积和河流沉积组成。S5 主要由三角洲和河流地层组成。厚煤层(> 0.7 米)集中在 S1 和 S3 的回归系地层中,而横向煤炭则沉积在 S2-S3 中,与潮汐环境有关。有机岩相显示富含玻璃石(30.00-85.20%),而锂辉石(0.00-16.60%)和惰性石(4.60-34.40%)则因深度和古环境而异。CLS 煤田显示了从浅海和泻湖沉积到三角洲和河流环境的环境演变。轻微的海平面波动、容纳性的变化、硅质岩的涌入以及植物群落都是这一沉积演替的特征。瓜杜阿斯地层的沉积特点是在高容积环境中以浅上循环为主的渐进模式。有机质是在中营养到外营养环境中的石灰质到石灰质条件下积累的,营养物质主要来自降雨。瓜杜阿斯地层的古气候表明,潮湿和炎热的条件有利于植物群的扩展。这项调查确定了热带纬度地区马斯特里赫特-古新世沿海到河道演替的古环境,表明沉积系统、层序地层学、古气候和煤炭成分之间有着密切的关系。

<div><div>Methane has a short atmospheric lifetime compared to carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>), ∼decade versus ∼centuries, but it has a much higher global warming potential (GWP), highlighting how reducing methane emissions can slow the rate of climate change. When considering the contribution of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to current global warming (2010–2019) relative to the industrial revolution (1850–1900) levels, methane contributes 0.5 °C or ∼ a third of the total. The most recent post-2023 global estimates of methane emissions by bottom-up (BU) and top-down (TD) approaches for the coal mining sector are in the range of ∼41 ± 3 Tg yr<sup>−1</sup> and 33 ± 5 Tg yr<sup>−1</sup>, respectively. This divergence, notwithstanding overlapping confidence intervals, is a result of differences between applied TD global inversion models and BU emission inventories. Further research can help to better refine emissions from the various contributing coal mine methane (CMM) emissions sources. The coal mining sector accounts for over 10 % of global anthropogenic methane emissions. The contribution of CMM emissions to the global budget have increased since 2000, although upward and downward regional trends have been observed.</div><div>The Global Methane Pledge (GMP), which was signed by more than 150 nations, aims to reduce methane emissions by 30 % from 2020 levels by 2030.

与二氧化碳 (CO2) 相比,甲烷在大气中的寿命很短,只有十几年而不是几个世纪,但它的全球升温潜能值 (GWP) 却要高得多,这凸显了减少甲烷排放可以减缓气候变化的速度。与工业革命时期(1850-1900 年)的水平相比,如果考虑到温室气体(GHG)排放对当前全球变暖(2010-2019 年)的影响,甲烷的影响为 0.5 °C,占总量的三分之一。根据自下而上(BU)和自上而下(TD)的方法,对煤炭开采行业 2023 年后甲烷排放量的最新全球估计分别为 41 ± 3 Tg yr-1 和 33 ± 5 Tg yr-1。尽管置信区间有重叠,但这种差异是由于应用的TD全球反演模型和BU排放清单之间的差异造成的。进一步的研究有助于更好地完善各种煤矿甲烷 (CMM) 排放源的排放量。煤矿行业占全球人为甲烷排放量的 10% 以上。自 2000 年以来,煤矿甲烷 (CMM) 排放量对全球预算的贡献一直在增加,尽管已观察到区域性的上升和下降趋势。全球甲烷承诺(GMP)由 150 个国家签署,其目标是到 2030 年将甲烷排放量从 2020 年的水平减少 30%,这样到 2050 年就可以消除 0.2°C 的变暖。能否实现 GMP 的减排目标将取决于不同经济部门的参与。在这方面,煤炭行业可在减排和实现减排目标方面发挥重要作用。据国际能源机构(IEA)和美国环境保护局(U.S. EPA)估计,通过应用现有技术,可避免全球一半以上的煤炭业务甲烷排放。然而,为煤炭开采部门设定减排情景目标是一项重大挑战,需要清楚了解煤层气和甲烷排放源的规模和行为。本文强调了甲烷在大气中的气候强迫作用,并详细回顾了煤炭生命周期中的煤层气排放源、不同国家采用的传统和新的清单编制方法、煤层气排放估算现状,以及与减缓不同煤层气排放源相关的机遇和困难。本文探讨了利用监管和经济机制的不同政策方法,并对减缓煤层气排放的重要性和工具进行了总结。最后,本文旨在为全球煤矿部门的煤矿机械缓解和减排情景目标提供信息。

When considering the contribution of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to current global warming (2010–2019) relative to the industrial revolution (1850–1900) levels, methane contributes 0.5 °C or ∼ a third of the total. The most recent post-2023 global estimates of methane emissions by bottom-up (BU) and top-down (TD) approaches for the coal mining sector are in the range of ∼41 ± 3 Tg yr&lt;sup&gt;−1&lt;/sup&gt; and 33 ± 5 Tg yr&lt;sup&gt;−1&lt;/sup&gt;, respectively. This divergence, notwithstanding overlapping confidence intervals, is a result of differences between applied TD global inversion models and BU emission inventories. Further research can help to better refine emissions from the various contributing coal mine methane (CMM) emissions sources. The coal mining sector accounts for over 10 % of global anthropogenic methane emissions. The contribution of CMM emissions to the global budget have increased since 2000, although upward and downward regional trends have been observed.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The Global Methane Pledge (GMP), which was signed by more than 150 nations, aims to reduce methane emissions by 30 % from 2020 levels by 2030.
