Abstract Changes in the D/H ratio of sedimentary organic matter (SOM) during thermal
maturation have been difficult to interpret because the effects of hydrogen exchange and …

Coal bed methane (CBM) is rapidly becoming a significant contributor to energy needs
along the eastern seaboard of Australia. The prospective coal seams for methane …

Coal-bed gas of the Tertiary Fort Union and Wasatch Formations in the Powder River Basin
in Wyoming and Montana, US was interpreted as microbial in origin by previous studies …

For the purpose of producing biocrude from pretreated and washed sweet sorghum
bagasse, hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) was conducted with six different catalysts at two …

Gas content of coals continuously change throughout their burial histories as a result of the
