| 摘要 |
A method of recovering methane from a solid carbonaceous subterranean formation having a production well in fluid communication with the formation and an injection well in fluid communication with the formation, comprising the steps of passing a gaseous fluid containing at least 60 volume percent nitrogen and at least 15 volume percent oxygen through a membrane separator to produce an oxygen-depleted effluent, pressurizing the oxygen-depleted effluent to a pressure above a reservoir pressure of the solid carbonaceous subterranean formation, injecting the oxygen-depleted effluent into the formation through the injection well, and recovering a fluid comprising methane through the production well.
