VAM Abatement Safety Demonstration Duct official launch
The University of Newcastle (UON) has unveiled a world-first demonstration facility to carry out controlled testing of an abatement technology that captures fugitive methane emissions from underground coal mining operations.
The new technology could reduce ventilation air methane (VAM) emissions by up to 90 per cent and reduce Australia’s annual greenhouse output by three per cent.
