Natural gas storage and transportation within gas hydrate of smaller particle: Size dependence of self-preservation phenomenon of natural gas hydrate

Study of gas hydrate metastability and its decay for hydrate samples containing unreacted supercooled liquid water below the ice melting point using pulse NMR

“…The self-preservation effect was studied by numerous researchers including in recent investigations (Falenty et al, 2014;Kida et al, 2014;Mimachi et al, 2014;Nakoryakov and Misyura, 2013;Sato et al, 2013;Stoporev et al, 2014).…”

Phase equilibrium of methane hydrate in silica sand containing chloride salt solution

“…As well as a new energy, gas hydrates also have potential applications such as gas separation and transportation, carbon dioxide capture, desalination, cold storage, etc. [3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. During the process of gas production, gas hydrates will lose the original stability and then may result in a series of serious issues once they are out of control.…”

Preservation of methane gas in the form of hydrates: Use of mixed hydrates

“…Thus, these techniques require skilled man-power for sustained and safer operations. Adoption of gas hydrate based methodology in this sector is attractive, but the limitations are mostly technology driven (Nakoryakov and Misyura, 2013;Mimachi et al, 2014). The hydrate conversion is quite inefficient and time consuming without an agitator and therefore some special reactors are being employed.…”

“…How can one model the mechanism for this unique property without ambiguities? Nevertheless unexpected longevity of the methane hydrates at ambient pressure found important applications, particularly, in gas storage and transportation of natural gas hydrates, which are dominated by the methane gas (Takeya et al, 2012;Mimachi et al, 2014). There are several factors that control the rate of hydrate dissociation, such as experimental temperature (Stern et al, 2001(Stern et al, , 2003 and pressure (Komai et al, 2004).…”
