Active Methanotrophs and Their Response to Temperature in Marine Environments: An Experimental Study
Aerobic methane (CH4) oxidation plays a significant role in marine CH4 consumption. Temperature changes resulting from, for example, global warming, have been suggested to be able to influence methanotrophic communities and their CH4 oxidation capacity ...

Natural Gas Hydrates: Possible Environmental Issues [PDF]
During the past 50 years, there has been a growing awareness of environmental issues related to energy technologies and natural resource utilization. A growing global population demands augmenting amounts of energy and goods without big discovery of conventional resources (apart from Zohr and Glafkos offshore fields in Mediterranean Sea, Egypt, and ...

Laboratory Study on Hydrate Production Using a Slow, Multistage Depressurization Strategy
Optimization of the depressurization pathways plays a crucial role in avoiding potential geohazards while increasing hydrate production efficiency. In this study, methane hydrate was formed in a flexible plastic vessel and then gas production processes ...

Numerical simulation on deposition evolution of natural gas hydrate in pipeline
The traditional Euler-Euler fluid model is to predict the flow and deposition of two phases by approximating the hydrate particles as a fluid phase, but does not consider the effect of particle formation caused by phase change in the flow process. Herein,

This paper reports on gas clathrates (commonly called hydrates), which are crystalline compounds that occur when water form a cage-like structure around smaller guest molecules. Gas hydrates of interest to the natural gas hydrocarbon industry are composed of water and eight molecules: methane, ethane, propane, isobutane, normal butane, nitrogen, carbon

Gas Hydrate Storage of Natural Gas [PDF]
Environmental and economic benefits could accrue from a safe, above-ground, natural-gas storage process allowing electric power plants to utilize natural gas for peak load demands; numerous other applications of a gas storage process exist. A laboratory study conducted in 1999 to determine the feasibility of a gas-hydrates storage process looked ...

Investigation into the Formation and Adhesion of Cyclopentane Hydrates on Mechanically Robust Vapor-Deposited Polymeric Coatings [PDF]
Blockage of pipelines by formation and accumulation of clathrate hydrates of natural gases (also called gas hydrates) can compromise project safety and economics in oil and gas operations, particularly at high pressures and low temperatures such as those
