Gas Hydrate Equilibrium Measurement of Methane + Carbon Dioxide + Tetrahydrofuran+ Water System at High CO₂ Concentrations

AbstractApplication of gas hydrate in separation of carbon dioxide (CO2) form nitrogen in Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) chain is recently studied by many researchers. Tetrahydrofuran (THF) is suggested as promoter for this process. The same process can be suggested for separation of CO2 from methane (CH4) for gas treatment and sweetening, especially for high CO2 content mixtures such as landfill gas. The first step in development of such process is understanding of the phase boundary of this mixture at different pressure-temperature condition and gas/liquid composition. In this work, gas hydrate phase boundary of CH4, CO2, THF and water at different pressure from 4.5 to 8.1 MPa is experimentally measured. CO2 mole fraction in gas phase is fixed at 0.7 and THF concentration in the liquid phase set at 0.03 mole fraction. Results show that presence of THF in the mixtures shift the phase boundary to the lower pressure / higher temperature condition. This effect is favorable for industrial applications

Investigation of the task oriented dual function inhibitors in gas hydrate inhibition: A review

Recent advances in gas hydrate research mainly focus on dual function gas hydrate inhibitors (DF-GHIs). DF-GHIs exhibit dual behavior of shifting the hydrate dissociation curve to lower temperatures and higher pressures as well as hindering or delaying the nucleation. The main focus of this review is to discuss all the possible factors that can induce dual functionality in gas hydrate inhibitors (GHIs). In this regard, this review summarizes the latest developments, classification, evaluation techniques and experimental findings of GHIs. The experimental data of different research groups is critically analyzed and systematically evaluated in terms of average depression temperature (ΔŦ) and relative inhibition power (RIP). The ΔŦ and RIP is calculated from existing experimental data. The studies in this field will give more knowledge at both academic and industrial level for the development of economical, efficient and biodegradable DF-GHIs

Impact of gas phase composition on gas hydrate process for carbon dioxide capturing from gaseous mixtures

Hydrate based technology is a promising new process for separation of Carbon dioxide from different gas mixtures. The process is claimed to be less energy intensive, green and low technology. In this article effect of composition on the efficiency of such process is discussed. CSMGem software is used for analysis. Results shows that gas phase composition have important impact on the efficiency of process.</jats:p
