Nowadays, carbon dioxide is the main cause of global warming, coal mining and its utilization is a major source of greenhouse gas emission, based on the theory of biogenic coalbed methane, this paper puts forward three models to achieve energy saving and emission reduction by using microbes, respectively they are the biological residual coal mining, the coalbed methane development and the carbon dioxide coalbed sequestration and transformation. And this paper analyses the utilization prospects from the aspects of the research status and technical procedures. Microbial technology has a great potential significance for energy saving and emission reduction and environment protection in coal mine.
