sH gas hydrate
6. 1.Gas hydrate: an introduction
Why study of gas hydrates is of importance:
1. natural gas hydrates: potentially vast energy resource [1]
(6.4×1012 tonnes of methane is trapped on ocean floor)
2. cause problems for the petroleum industry [1,5]
(form inside gas pipelines, drilling operations)
3. Gas separation [6-7]
4. CO2 capture [8-9]
5. Transportation of natural gas or hydrogen [10-13]
6. Gas hydrate as cold storage material [14-17]
7. Desalination of water [18-20]
Why kinetics of hydrate formation is of importance??
Help us introducing new technologies!!!
6
7. 1.Gas hydrate: an introduction
Among these technologies we are concerned with:
Use of gas hydrate as a medium for
1. Gas transportation and storage: sH is best structure [21]
2. Cold storage material: hydrate that form at moderate conditions
7
8. 1. Gas hydrate: an introduction
The kinetics of sII and sH hydrate are poorly understood.
No account for promotion of sH hydrate in published literature
The promotion (and inhibition) mechanisms: not well understood

Kinetics of hydrate formation for
MCH/methane/ water system at 3°C
[11]
9. 1. Gas hydrate: an introduction
In promotion section we deal with surfactant!
Surfactant types : anionic, cationic, non-ionic [22-24]
Non-ionic surfactants: more environmental friendly and less toxic
Macroscopic properties of surfactants [25-26]

43. Results and discussion:
3.4. sH methane hydrate
The TBME is kinetically favorable
The MCH and MCP are thermodynamical favorable
Mixture of two large guest molecules
43
44. Conclusions:
NPE6EO, TritonX-100 and LAE8EO can significantly promote CP hydrate
formation kinetics: much higher interfacial surface
The presence of surfactant can lower the particle adhesion forces: more slurry-
ish
THF hydrate formation is a heat transfer controlled process due to its high
solubility in water
Proposed enthalpy based heat transfer model can easily predict THF hydrate
formation rate
44
45. Conclusions:
The CP/water MCP/water and MCH/water interfacial tension can be
lowered by an order of magnitude using non-ionic surfactants
While the EO/PO can increase the effective diffusivity of the CP in water,
anionic surfactant might lower the effective diffusivity
Mixed TBME/MCH and TBME/MCP systems are kinetically and
thermodynamically favorable systems
Presence of surfactants: can change kinetic path for sH hydrate formation
45
46. Future plans:
Experimental an modeling investigation of THF hydrate formation: falling
film
Study of rheology and particle adhesion force for THF,TBAB and CP
hydrate
with and without additives
Study of sH and sII hydrogen clathrate hydrate for hydrogen
transportation and storage
Study of hydrate formation in CP/methane/ water and CP/CO2/water
systems
