II. How is CBM formed
Coalbed methane (CH4) forms in one of two ways. During the earliest stage of coalification (the process that turns plant detritus into coal), biogenic methane is generated as a by-product of bacterial respiration. Aerobic bacteria (those that use oxygen in respiration) first metabolize any free oxygen left in the plant remains and the surrounding sediments. In fresh water
High-temperature decomposition
High-temperature splitting of water occurs at about 3000 °C. At this temperature, 10% of the water is decomposed and the remaining 90% can be recycled. To reduce the temperature, other processes for high temperature splitting of water have been suggested:
▸Thermo-chemical cycles.
▸Hybrid systems coupling thermal decomposition and electrolytic

Low carbon green growth” policy to participate in trend of reducing emission of carbon dioxide.
2) Rising oil price
In July, 2008, Dubai oil prices exceeded $130. High demand from China and India caused the soaring of oil prices which had been stable for 20 years’ after the ‘Oil shock’ to that led to unstable condition in oil prices owing to imbalance in oil supply.

Sulfur Dioxide(SO2)
The release of SO2 to the atmosphere is the primary cause of acid rain in the world.
Fossil fuel combustion at electric power-generating plants accounts for about70% of
the emissions.
Coal, Oil, and all other fossil fuels naturally
contain some sulfur.
Volcanic eruptions are another more localized natural source of SO2
SO2 + OH. HSO3.
