formation kinetics of structure h gas hydrate
Authors
abstract
this paper investigates the kinetics of structure h (sh) formation kinetics above and below the structure i (si) formation equilibrium curve at temperatures of between 2â°c and 6â°c. methane was used as a help gas and methylcyclohexane (mch) was used as sh former. it was concluded that in the points above the si formation equilibrium curve, at the first, the si forms, and then converts to sh because of the low solubility of mch in water. in the points under the si equilibrium curve, at the first sh forms after a long induction time. the study also show the effect of the addition of hydroxymethylcellulose (in three concentrations of 0.05, 0.1 and 0.15 wt%) on sh hydrate formation kinetics. with this additive, it was observed that the rate of sh formation increases.

Formation Kinetics of Structure H Gas Hydrate
This paper investigates the kinetics of structure H (sH) formation kinetics above and below the structure I (sI) formation equilibrium curve at temperatures of between 2°C and 6°C. Methane was used as a help gas and methylcyclohexane (MCH) was used as sH former. It was concluded that in the points above the sI formation equilibrium curve, at the first, the sI forms, and then converts to sH be...

Gas hydrate growth kinetics was studied at a pressure of 90 bars to investigate the effect of temperature, initial water content, stirring rate, and reactor size in stirred semi-batch autoclave reactors. The mixing energy during hydrate growth was estimated by logging the power consumed. The theoretical model by Garcia-Ochoa and Gomez for estimation of the mass transfer parameters in stirred ta...
full textInvestigation of the Hydrate Formation Equilibrium Conditions of Natural Gas
One of the main problems in oil recovery via the gas injection is the formation of hydrates in thelines. In order to prevent the formation of hydrate in these lines, which leads to the blockage andsometimes explosion, at first, the equilibrium formation conditions must be determined and then toprevent its formation by changing the thermodynamic conditions or by adding the inhibitors. In thisres...
full textMeasurement of Mass Transfer Coefficients of Natural Gas Mixture during Gas Hydrate Formation
In this study, mass transfer coefficients (MTC’s) of natural gas components during hydrate formation are reported. This work is based on the assumption that the transport of gas molecules from gas phase to aqueous phase is dominant among other resistances. Several experiments were conducted on a mixture of natural gas at different pressures and temperatures and the consumed gas was monitored an...
full textPrediction of Gas Hydrate Formation using HYSYS Software (TECHNICAL NOTE)
Gas hydrates attracted worldwide attention due to their potential as huge energy resource in the recent decades. Effective parameters which influence the formation of hydrates are high pressure, low temperature and water presence. HYSYS software is one of the major simulators which are widely used in the chemical and thermodynamic processes. This research was conducted to simulate gas hydrate f...
