Abstract

The in situ transformation of the carbohydrate substances is presented in the context of methane (CH4) formation by methanogens. In situ coal conversion methods have been characterized due to the beneficial effect of unconventional coal mining. The research was carried out on less mature coals, with a lower carbonisation degree of organic matter, because they are more effective in conversion to bioenergy gas, which can be used for all pro-ecological activities. The original concept of experimental research was presented by combining the properties of a polydisperse substrate, which is pig slurry, and used for brown coal biogasification (anaerobic digestion) in two brown coal bed systems. For this purpose, a laboratory monosubstrate reactor for the fermentation of pig slurry in a lignite bed was developed. The mainaim of the research presented in the article is to assess the amount of agricultural biogas produced in the process of mesophilic methane fermentation with the use of a polydisperse substrate using a brown coal bed placed in a fermentor. The partial goals are:
