Fast kinetics of gas hydrate growth, high storage capacity, high stability of hydrates formed,
and no foam formation in the gas recovery stage are key factors in commercializing methane …

High toxicity and huge foaming are two severe challenges for gas storage strategies based
on promoting the gas hydrate formation using surfactants. The present study used castor oil …

Surfactants are considered the most influential promoters for accelerating the formation of
gas hydrates in gas storage applications. However, their promotion mechanism remains …

The application of gas hydrate as a significant source of energy, which substantially contains
methane, has recently attracted the consideration of many researchers. One of the essential …

In recent decades, both rising energy demand and increasing population have led to a
significant increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2). Natural gas, the primary source of …

Although anionic surfactants are considered the most efficient kinetic gas hydrate promoters
for gas storage applications, gas recovery and reuse of surfactants are difficult due to high …

The storage and transportation of natural gas in the form of gas hydrates have the
advantages of being safer and more environmentally friendly. However, the slow formation …

Natural gas hydrates (NGHs) are solid non-stoichiometric compounds often regarded as a
next generation energy source. Successful commercialization of NGH is curtailed by lack of …

Improving the hydrate formation rate as well as gas storage capacity is significant for gas
hydrate technology applications. Porous woodshavings with different liquid–solid ratios …

Solidified natural gas (SNG) has been viewed as a promising method for the storage and
