Summary: In this study, cyclopentyl amine (CPA) was introduced as a potential thermodynamic promoter for methane (CH4) storage. The results showed that CPA could form hydrate without the help of gas and work as a thermodynamic promoter for CH4. Tuning phenomena were observed below a certain concentration of CPA.

Summary: Clathrate hydrate is a promising candidate for hydrogen storage, and the addition of natural gas can reduce the formation pressure and improve energy density. Through calculations and simulations, we estimated the hydrogen storage capacity of H2-CH4 binary hydrate and studied its thermodynamical and mechanical stability. The binary hydrate can maintain its structure under moderate temperature and pressure, and exhibits a self-preservation effect at -270 K, making it suitable for hydrogen storage and transport. These findings enhance our understanding of mixed hydrate as a viable hydrogen storage technology for achieving a sustainable hydrogen economy.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of different biogas compositions on clathrate hydrate formation and proposes a kinetic model for predicting the progress of biogas crystal growth. The results indicate that the concentration of dissolved gas in liquid water is a key factor in the growth rate, with H2S and SO2 molecules slightly promoting biogas hydrate formation and N2 and H2 molecules reducing the generation rate of biogas hydrate.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of three chemicals at different concentrations on gas hydrate formation, and identified the optimal choices. Furthermore, the combination of PVP and MEG in an aqueous solution was found to have a simultaneous synergistic impact on both natural gas hydrate formation induction time and the rate of gas consumption.

Summary: CO2 and CH4 hydrates are important both energetically and environmentally. Molecular dynamics simulations reveal that the growth rate of these hydrates is affected by the incorporation of guest molecules, with CO2 hydrate growing faster due to higher solubility. Additionally, higher temperatures require more molecular motion for solid growth. Our calculations show good agreement with experiments of hydrate growth along the guest-solution interface, but further work is needed to reconcile different experimental results.

Summary: This study evaluated the performance of SDS in the separation efficiency of simulated biogas. The experimental results showed that higher driving forces led to a significant increase in gas capture, dominated by the CH4 component. Hydrate growth mainly occurred in the liquid phase, and the separation factor was positively correlated with the induction time. Gas capture per unit volume of solution could be improved at higher gas-liquid ratios, while high-pressure failure behavior was observed. The defoamer had no significant effect on hydrate generation kinetics and separation efficiency.

Summary: Antifreezes such as methanol and ammonia can enhance methane storage in binary clathrate hydrates like THF and TBAB. Methanol acts as a catalyst for methane hydrate formation and induces TBAB hydrates to form an orthorhombic structure suitable for methane storage. These findings suggest that methanol could play a crucial role in hydrate-based methane storage systems.

Summary: This study investigates the kinetics and morphology of hydrate crystal growth in gas-water and gas-liquid hydrocarbon-water systems using different additives. The addition of tryptophan significantly enhances gas uptake and hydrate formation rate. In the gas-liquid hydrocarbon-water system, the presence of water-insoluble Cyclo-O hinders mass transfer between gas and bulk water phase, resulting in cloudlike hydrate formation.

Summary: Xenon (Xe) and krypton (Kr) are used in various important industries, but their separation is energy-intensive. This study shows that clathrate hydrates can be used for cost-effective Xe-Kr separation. The hydrate-based approach captures Xe selectively and requires milder temperature conditions compared to cryogenic distillation. It suggests that this method is an excellent alternative to the energy-intensive cryogenic distillation.

Summary: In this study, a promising substrate for bimetallic platinum-copper (PtCu) catalyst in the form of RGO/PANI/Pt/Cu was developed by combining polyaniline (PANI) prepared through an in-situ polymerization technique with reduced graphene oxide (RGO) nanosheets. The fabricated RGO/PANI/Pt/Cu exhibited significantly improved electrochemical performance and durability in the methanol oxidation reaction (MOR) compared to pure Pt catalyst. The electrocatalyst demonstrated appropriate catalytic activity and stability in the MOR, as confirmed by 150-scan cyclic voltammetry (CV) measurements.
