The stability of a natural gas hydrate during storage at atmospheric pressure and below-freezing temperatures was studied in the laboratory. The gas hydrate was produced in a stirred vessel at 2- to 6-MPa pressure and temperatures from 0 to 20-degrees-C. The hydrate was refrigerated and stored in deep freezers at -5, -10, and -18-degrees-C for up to 10 days. The natural gas hydrate remained stable when kept frozen at atmospheric pressure.

PHASE-RELATIONS IN THE SYSTEM CE2O3-CE2SI2O7 IN THE TEMPERATURE-RANGE 1150-DEGREES TO 1970-DEGREES-C IN REDUCING AND INERT ATMOSPHERES
TAS, AC; AKINC, M (Wiley, 1994-11-01)
The high-temperature phase relations in the system Ce2O3-Ce2Si2O7 have been studied in the temperature range 1150 degrees-1970 degrees C in inert and reducing atmospheres by conventional quenching and differential thermal analysis. Three eutectic reactions were found to occur at 1664 degrees C and 27 mol% SiO2 between Ce2O3 and Ce2SiO5, at 1870 degrees C and 54 mol% SiO2 between Ce2SiO5 and Ce-4.67(SiO4)(3)O, and at 1762 degrees C and 65 mol% SiO2 between Ce-4.67(SiO4)(3)O and Ce2Si2O7. Microstructural char...
PREDICTION OF BED MATERIAL ACTIVITY FROM CHANGES IN CARBON-DIOXIDE CONCENTRATION FOLLOWING COAL PARTICLE INJECTION IN THE FLUIDIZED-BED REACTOR
VURAL, H (Elsevier BV, 1994-01-01)
An electrically heated laboratory scale fluidized bed reactor was used for measurement of carbon dioxide concentrations from the devolatilization of bituminous coal under conditions pertinent to a large scale atmospheric pressure fluidized bed combustor (AFBC). Feeding a few particles into the bed, which contained 1 or 2 g of char, produced an increase in CO2 concentration. The quantity of CO2 released from the fluidized bed was found to be a function of fluidizing solid material, as well as the bed tempera...
Self-consistent treatment of gas heating in modeling of a coaxial DBD in atmospheric pressure CO2
Zhou, Chen; Yuan, Chengxun; Kudryavtsev, Anatoly; Yasar Katircioglu, T.; Rafatov, İsmail; Yao, Jingfeng (2023-01-01)
This work is devoted to the numerical study of characteristics of dielectric barrier discharge maintained in a coaxial reactor in atmospheric pressure CO2. The numerical model is based on the drift-diffusion theory of gas discharges, and takes into account the gas heating in a self-consistent manner. The effect of incorporating gas heating into the discharge properties, specifically, on CO2 decomposition, is investigated for wide range of amplitude and frequency of the applied voltage. Calculations revealed...
High-speed jet flows over spillway aerators
Kokpinar, MA; Göğüş, Mustafa (2002-12-01)
The characteristics of high-speed air-entrained jet flow over a spillway aerator were investigated using experimental data. Three different ramp designs (as well as the case of no ramp) were tested in a channel where the bed slope was adjusted to 0, 0.17, and 0.57, respectively. The effects of aerator geometry and flow condition on the air-entrainment process within the water jet and on the pressure fluctuations in the impact region are the main focus of the investigation. An extensive data analysis was per...
Kinetic study of methane hydrate formation with the use of a surface baffle
Longinos, Sotirios Nik; Longinou, Dimitra-Dionisia; Celebi, Erdem; Toktarbay, Zhexenbek; Parlaktuna, Mahmut (2021-09-01)
The kinetics of methane gas hydrate formation was obtained by different dual and dual mixed impeller experiments with surface baffle at 42.5 bars pressure and 2 degrees C temperature. The outcomes indicated that induction time is lower in radial flow experiments compared to mixed flow experiments due to better gas liquid contact, uniform shear stress and good pumping capacity compared to mixed flow ones with values less 15 min. Radial flow experiments showed higher values in hydrate yield although the durat...
