More Information
Summary:A gas hydrate production apparatus capable of reacting a raw gas with a raw water to thereby form a slurry gas hydrate and capable of removing water from the slurry gas hydrate by means of a gravitational dewatering unit. This gravitational dewatering unit is one including a cylindrical first tower body; a cylindrical dewatering part disposed on top of the first tower body; a water receiving part disposed outside the dewatering part; and a cylindrical second tower body disposed on top of the dewatering part, wherein the cross-sectional area of the second tower body is continuously or intermittently increased upward from the bottom. L'invention concerne un appareil de production d'hydrate gazeux permettant de mettre en réaction un gaz brut avec de l'eau non traitée pour former un hydrate gazeux boueux, et permettant d'extraire l'eau de l'hydrate gazeux boueux au moyen d'une unité d'extraction d'eau gravitationnelle. L'unité d'extraction d'eau gravitationnelle comprend une première tour cylindrique, un dispositif d'extraction d'eau cylindrique disposé sur la première tour, un dispositif de réception d'eau disposé à l'extérieur du dispositif d'extraction d'eau, et une seconde tour disposée sur le dispositif d'extraction d'eau, la zone transversale de la seconde tour augmentant de manière continue ou intermittente vers le haut à partir de la base.
