As an advanced scientific instrument, what role does Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) play in coal mining and coalbed methane management, and how will it develop in the future? Recently, Instrumentation Information Network interviewed Associate Professor Jiaguang Kan from China University of Mining and Technology, as well as Dr. Yong Sun from Professor Cheng Zhai’s team.

Coalbed methane, commonly known as "gas," is a self-stored natural gas generated during the coal formation process and primarily exists in an adsorbed state within the coal seams.

Shale gas is natural gas extracted from shale formations and represents an important unconventional natural gas resource.
