Gas hydrate dissociation off Svalbard induced by isostatic rebound rather than global warming
Methane seepage from the upper continental slopes of Western Svalbard has previously been attributed to gas hydrate dissociation induced by anthropogenic warming of ambient bottom waters.

Structural basis for the transformation pathways of the sodium naproxen anhydrate–hydrate system
Crystal structures are presented for two dihydrate polymorphs (DH-I and DH-II) of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug sodium (S)-naproxen. The structure of DH-I is determined from twinned single crystals obtained by solution crystallization.

Research progress of promoters and promoting mechanisms for hydrate-based gas separation
Unconventional natural gas is a type of high-quality clean energy, which often contains some gases as impurities that cause reductions in its combustion heat value and utilization efficiency. Therefore, developing gas separation technologies to remove or

Mechanical Creep Instability of Nanocrystalline Methane Hydrates [PDF]
Mechanical creep behaviors of natural gas hydrates (NGHs) are of importance for understanding mechanical instability of gas hydrate-bearing sediments on Earth. Limited by the experimental challenges, intrinsic creep mechanisms of nanocrystalline methane hydrates remain largely unknown yet at molecular scale. Herein, using large-scale molecular dynamics

Synergistic Effect of Glycol Ethers with a Kinetic Inhibitor (Poly(VP-VCap)) for Sweet Natural Gas Hydrate Formation: (Concentration Effect of Glycol Ethers) [PDF]
Formation of natural gas hydrate is a serious problem in the gas and oil industry because it can plug pipelines and destroy the equipment. This study aimes to evaluate the concentration effect of glycol ethers on their synergism with a commercial kinetic

The Thermodynamic and Kinetic Effects of Sodium Lignin Sulfonate on Ethylene Hydrate Formation
Hydrate-based technologies (HBTs) have high potential in many fields. The industrial application of HBTs is limited by the low conversion rate of the water into hydrate (RWH), and sodium lignin sulfonate (SLS) has the potential to solve the above problem.

The Atomic-Level Structure of Cementitious Calcium Silicate Hydrate
Efforts to tune the bulk physical properties of concrete are hindered by a lack of knowledge related to the atomic-level structure and growth of calcium silicate hydrate phases, which form about 50–60% by volume of cement paste.

Characterization of fungal carbonyl sulfide hydrolase belonging to clade D β‐carbonic anhydrase
Here, we performed a functional analysis of the fungal enzymes belonging to clade D of the β‐class carbonic anhydrase family (β‐D‐CA). The β‐D‐CAs in the basidiomycete Gloeophyllum trabeum and the ascomycete Trichoderma harzianum showed very low activity in the hydration of CO2 but exhibited high activity in the hydrolysis of carbonyl sulfide (COS ...
