ABSTRACT: Natural gas hydrate has tremendous gas storage capacity; natural gas
hydrate can be used to store and transport energy. The current problem faced is
how to improve the hydrate formation rate and storage capacity, and form
continuously. Compared to the pure water and SDBS solution, the ionic solution
[HMIPS]OTs made by the team was the excellent additive and ensured the best reaction
concentration range. Specific effects of different additives on hydrate
formation were summarized; hydrate formation mechanism of additives was
expounded. Considering the investment cost, operation cost, simple and stable
operation of different surfactants, it is thought that the study of different
additives mechanisms and developing the new efficient additive have the important
value.
