چکیده
With the surge of the global energy demand, natural gas plays an increasingly important role in the global energy market. To meet the demand, optimization techniques have been widely used in the natural gas industry, and yielded a lot of promising results. In this chapter, we give a detailed discussion of optimization models in the natural gas industry with the focus on the natural gas production, transportation, and market.

Natural Gas Price Forecasting using Kriging Interpolation Technique and Neldar-Mead Optimization Algorithm
The prediction of economic series with high volatility and high uncertainty - such as natural gas prices - is always a challenge in econometric models, because the use of traditional linear modeling models does not allow us to predict complex and nonlinear time series. Regarding the prediction of natural gas prices, findings point to superiority of the neural network compared to regression mod...
متن کاملExperimental and Theoretical Study on the CH4 Adsorption by Granular and Microporous Activated Carbon
Adsorbed natural gas (ANG) by Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) has been widely investigated as an alternative to CNG and LNG technologies for storage and transportation of natural gas. In the present work, a theoretical and experimental study was conducted to accurately determine the amount of adsorption of CH4 by GAC. To carry out the experiments, the volumetric method was used up to 4 MPa at c...
