  • Micropore structure characterization of organic matters in the coal measures due to bioconversion is of great significance in understanding reservoir reformation by microorganism and revealing the storage and enrichment mechanism of biogenic gas in the coal measures. Pore structure evolution of organic matters in the coal measures degraded by microbe was analyzed using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), high-pressure mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP), low-pressure N2 gas adsorption pycnometry and fractal dimension FHH theory in this study. Considering the measuring range of pore size distribution (PSD) and combining the characteristics of microbial ecology, the pore structure type of coal and shale in coal measures is divided into three types. They are micropore (PSD>5 μm), micro-nanopore (5 μm-100 nm), and nanopore (2-100 nm). The PSD and micropore pore volume (PV) of coal and shale samples increase, and the specific surface area (SSA) and micro-nanopore and nanopore PV decrease after bioconversion. The surface fractal diameter (D1) and pore structure fractal diameter (D2) of coal and shale samples decrease after bioconversion, showing that the inner surface of pore becomes smooth and pore structure gets simple due to microbial action. The reformation of pore structure due to bioconversion is benefitial to the migration and enrichment of free gas in the coal measures.
