Effect of The natural Green Materials on Methane Hydrate Formation Kinetics

The kinetic effect of resin (terpene) and ajinomoto (monosodium glutamate) for methane hydrate formation was reported. The induction time of 0.2wt% natural green materials was measured in a sapphire hydrate reactor at 12°C at 9.5MPa. The induction time of all materials were found to be less than pur...

Summary:The kinetic effect of resin (terpene) and ajinomoto (monosodium glutamate) for methane hydrate formation was reported. The induction time of 0.2wt% natural green materials was measured in a sapphire hydrate reactor at 12°C at 9.5MPa. The induction time of all materials were found to be less than pure water. In the presence of resin induction time decreased 20% more than pure water and the initial rate of hydrate formation was enhanced. Resin enhanced the rate of methane hydrate formation 17% more than pure water. However, compared to SDS the rate of hydrate formation by both natural materials was less. Moreover, natural materials consumed more methane during hydrate formation than pure water. In addition, resin promote methane hydrate formation and could act as suitable kinetic promoter for the natural gas separation, transportation and storage.
