mine coal to gas plants
Gas released during coal mining - STEAG GmbH
The mine gas used is a gas that occurs in hard coal mines and consists of methane and carbon dioxide. It is inevitably released during the mining of hard coal, and is therefore extracted as far as possible before the coal is mined. In our gas turbines, gas engines and boiler systems, the mine gas is burned and converted into heat and electricity.
