Systems‐Level Optimization of Hybrid Produced Water Treatment Systems for Sustainable Oil and Gas Production: A Review of Current Technologies

open access: yesGlobal Challenges, Volume 10, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Produced water (PW) is the largest and most complex waste stream generated during oil and gas production, posing significant environmental, operational, and regulatory challenges due to its high salinity, dispersed hydrocarbons, toxic organics, heavy metals, and naturally occurring radioactive materials. Although numerous studies have reviewed

Influence of rock mechanics characteristics on fracturing and development strategies in the Zhengzhuang Block

open access: yesMeitan kexue jishu
The rock mechanical parameters of coal reservoirs play an important role in controlling the formation and evolution of natural fractures and the propagation of artificial fractures, and are the key factors affecting the fracturing transformation of coal ...

Rational Design of a Multifunctional MOFs for Alkane‐Selective Gas Separation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 2, 9 January 2026.
The design of a dimethyl‐functionalized adsorbent provides insight into the simultaneous separation of CH4/N2, C2H6/C2H4, and C3H8/C3H6 mixtures. Abstract Efficient separation of light hydrocarbons—including the removal of CH4 from N2 and the purification of olefins such as C2H4 and C3H6 from their corresponding alkanes (C2H6 and C3H8)—is critical in ...

Nanoconfined Methane Storage Mechanism in Deep Coal Seams: A Wettability-Coupled Simplified Local Density Model

open access: yesNanomaterials
In deep coal seams, where nanopores (~2 nm) dominate, wettability effects, which govern molecule–wall interaction strength, critically control the methane storage, yet remain poorly understood.

Numerical Investigation of the Influence of Wave Pressure Amplitude and Frequency on Fracture Morphology Induced by Supercritical CO2 Fracturing

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The mechanisms whereby various parameters influence the evolution of the induced fracture geometry during pulse supercritical CO2 fracturing (PSCF) were explored through numerical simulations. A novel quantitative index of the induced fractures, termed the “matching degree” (MD), was proposed, and a theoretical framework based on the rock‐bonded ...

Mitigating Surface Tension Effects in Multi‐Coalbed Methane Reservoirs: Case Study of Liupanshui Field

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Water locking effect caused by surface tension severely restricts coalbed methane (CBM) productivity in multilayer reservoirs. The Songhe demonstration area features main target coal seams with overpressure, high gas content, and high gas saturation, presenting favorable CBM development conditions.

Methanogen consortium metabolism characteristic analysis of Illinois basin by real time monitor method

open access: yes, 2010
Microbially Enhance Coalbed Methane technology is used to improve methane content in coalbeds. The methanogen consortium metabolism process is the basic avenue for MECoM to yield methane with some organic compounds in coal. Detailed information about the

Isothermal Desorption Hysteretic Model for Deep Coalbed Methane Development

open access: yes, 2022
The adsorption/desorption mechanism of coalbed methane is significant for gas control and coalbed methane exploitation; scholars have done a lot of research on it and generally have confidence in that temperature, pressure, and moisture are central ...

Methane emission from U.S. coal mines : a survey [PDF]

open access: yes
This survey was conducted to determine the magnitude of the methane emission and control problem in U.S. bituminous coal mines. The resultant data indicate that the emission rate for any given coalbed depends primarily on the coal production rate and on ...
