Ventilation air is a difficult source of methane to use as an energy carrier, as air volume is large, methane is very diluted as well as variable in its concentration (0.1–1.0 vol.%) and flow rate. The paper indicates the coal mines as a source of the permanent emission of low-concentrated methane, which have increased the greenhouse effect. This paper proposes the catalytic oxidation of methane as the solution for the problem of methane utilization when its concentration in air is insufficient for flame combustion. The studies conducted for many years have enabled to find the active oxide and metallic catalytic systems for the reaction of methane oxidation. For the utilization of gases with low-concentrated methane it seems to be economically well-justified to use of the low-temperature catalysts, especially palladium catalysts. Depending on technological solutions it can be considered as a method for methane utilization or as an environmentally friendly way for generation of electric and thermal energy.
