“…163,164 Such a smart coating would be important not only for the flow assurance sector but also for the hydrate production in the gas storage and gas separation applications where the hydrate adhesion to equipment walls is an envisioned issue. 207 It is noted that hydrophobic coating of solid surfaces not only results in a reduction of hydrate adhesion forces as discussed but also might lead to a faster hydrate nucleation if the hydrateforming conditions are provided. The later is vital for boosting hydrate formation kinetics, which is meaningful for hydratebased gas storage and gas separation.…”

“…The outstanding advantage of this potential technology in terms of economics and sustainability warrants a widespread attention in the future. In particular, replication of natural water-repellent (superhydrophobic) creatures such as the structures of Lotus leave and water-walking insects’ feet offers a novel approach for fabricating a smart coating with ultralow adhesion behaviors. , Such a smart coating would be important not only for the flow assurance sector but also for the hydrate production in the gas storage and gas separation applications where the hydrate adhesion to equipment walls is an envisioned issue …”

Compact gas inclusion in hydrates presents not only fascinating science but also wide-ranging applications in sustainable energy and environmental technologies. The surface of hydrates dictates many essential phenomena underlying hydrate-based processes such as hydrate nucleation and growth, mass transfer, heat transfer, agglomeration, adhesion, and adsorption. Thus, surface science falls within the core of hydrate science and engineering. This paper covers an insight perspective on surface science related to the research and development of hydrate-based sustainable technologies. We present insightful molecular views of hydrate surfaces with a focus on the interfacial premelting, and discuss how new fundamental advances benefit the sustainable engineering in the areas of greener and chemical-free flow assurance, energyefficient gas storage, carbon capture and storage, and recovery of methane (low-carbon energy) from natural hydrates. We highlight the prospects and challenges as well as stimulate future studies on this important topic.

“…The industrial cost of HCS is estimated at 20−40 US dollars/ton of CO 2 , which is lower than carbon capture by conventional absorption (i.e., 40−100 US dollars/ton of CO 2 ). 181 With the maturity of the methods for promoting the CO 2 hydrate formation, HCS technology will become more economically competitive. Compound additives are an effective method for promoting the CO 2 hydrate formation.…”

Hydrate-based CO2 sequestration is a novel technology to reduce CO2 emissions and mitigate global warming. The reduction of the induction time and increase of the formation rate and gas storage capacity are the key points for industrially storing CO2 hydrate. In this review, the research progress of various compound additives for promoting the formation of CO2 hydrate is reviewed. The promotion mechanisms of different additives and effects of different compound additives on the formation characteristics of CO2 hydrate are analyzed and summarized. Additionally, the promotion effects of different compound additives are compared and evaluated, challenges and constraints of the current compound additives discussed, and development trends and directions proposed.

“…97 Although these studies, and upcoming field tests, are related to sequestration, a recent techno-economic analysis suggests that using hydrates for CO 2 capture could be attractive commercially. 98 For clathrate hydrates to be technologically viable in the transportation of gases, it is necessary to increase formation and decomposition kinetics, which are slow because of the self-preservation effect. 99 It is also necessary to enhance the stability of the hydrates at near-ambient conditions during transportation to reduce the transportation costs.…”

The sociopolitical events over the past few years led to transformative changes in both the energy and chemical sectors. One of the most evident consequences of these events is the significant focus on sustainability. In fact, rather than an engaging discussion within elite social circles, the search for sustainability is now one of the hard requirements investors impose on companies. The concept of sustainability itself has developed since its inception, and now it encompasses environmental as well as socioeconomic aspects. The major players in the energy and chemical sectors seem to embrace these changes and the related challenges; in most cases, tangible ambitious goals have been proposed. For example, bp aims "to become a net zero company by 2050 or sooner, and to help the world get to net zero". Although tragic events such as the war in Ukraine directly affect global supply chains, leading to some reconsiderations in medium-term industrial and political strategies, trends and public demands seem determined to pursue ambitious sustainable goals, as tangible as the European Union's "Fit for 55" climate package, approved on May 12, 2022, which effectively bans internal combustion engines for new passenger cars and light commercial vehicles from 2035. These trends will likely lead to profound changes in both the chemical and energy sectors. While some predictions may miss the target, speculating about upcoming challenges and opportunities could help us prepare for the future. This is the purpose of this brief Perspective.
