Global warming and climate change have made the task of maintaining a state of
energy security, while not causing any damage to the environment a tough ask.
Jan an energy expert highly recommends in situ coal gasification. This is a
method that involves converting coal into gas from coal seams inside the mines
which have not had an extraction by injecting oxides and getting the gas out by
way of production wells.
This method has several advantages over traditional coal mining. Says Jan, ?It
is the least damaging to the environment as the coal itself is not extracted;
it?s only the gas which gets taken out. The problems that one usually associates
with coal mining don?t come into play here as there is no transportation or
burning to worry about over here.?
Having seen how well in situ coal gasification works at close quarters, Jan has
taken it upon himself to propagate the cause of this technology and lectures far
and wide about its feasibility. He talks about the many fine examples of
