A systematic study on the methane hydrate formation and dissociation with aqueous tetrahydrofuran (~ 6.03 mol %) has been carried out in a stirred reactor. Experiments are conducted with initial methane pressure in the range 0.88 - 8.21 MPa. Encaging of methane molecules in vacant cages (5 super(12)...
