Description

About this site

This site has been created to collate general material about methanometers and only covers a small part of the subject of methanometry. It is planned for the site to evolve by including selected contributions from readers and it is hoped that the information presented will be useful to students and others interested in the coal mining industry.

Presentation of material is in continuous format to enable printing as one complete document which may be reproduced for non commercial purposes.
