Atmosphere of Jupiter Atmosphere of Jupiter The atmosphere of Jupiter is the largest planetary atmosphere in the Solar System. It is mostly made of molecular hydrogen and helium in roughly solar proportions; other chemical compounds are present only in small amounts and include methane, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide and water. Although water is thought to reside deep in the atmosphere, its directly measured concentration is very low. The nitrogen, sulfur, and noble gas abundances in Jupiter's atmosphere exceed solar values by a factor of about three. The atmosphere of Jupiter lacks a clear lower boundary and gradually transitions into the liquid interior of the
Gas venting or controlled combustion of gases from coal mining and of so-called biogases. In practice, it is impossible or impractical to capture and filter the air from coal mining (esp open-cast) and to completely degas hydrocarbon product and/or water produced from the ground which in some cases may be disposed at surface for and used after treatment. Melting of methane hydrates in the world's oceans or sea ice would also constitute uncontrolled gas leakage to atmosphere. Gas venting Gas venting is the intentional safe release, without combustion, into the earth's atmosphere of gases that cannot be readily recycled into a production
