Natural gas hydrates from different types and concentrations of surfactant solutions were produced and dissociated in a high-pressure cell. The Clausius-Clapeyron equation was utilized to derive the enthalpy related to the phase transition of the gas component from dissociation data. The results indicated that the phase change enthalpy of the nonionic surfactant solution hydrate is higher compared to that of pure-water and anionic surfactant solution hydrates. Experimental results also show that surfactants do not influence the thermodynamic dissociation point.

Promotion effect of polymers and surfactants on hydrate formation rate Karaaslan, U; Parlaktuna, Mahmut (2002-11-01) The promotion effect of two polymers and three surfactants on methane hydrate formation was investigated in a high-pressure system. For all of the tested chemicals, 1 wt % aqueous solutions were prepared and methane hydrate was formed in those media to detect their effect on hydrate formation rate. It was determined that Igepal-520 is the most effective promoter on methane hydrate formation rate with respect to a reference test carried out by using only pure water.
Characterization and kinetics of light crude oil combustion in the presence of metallic salts Kök, Mustafa Verşan (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2004-05-01) In this research, a reaction cell, thermogravimetry (TG), and differential thermal analysis (DTA) were used to characterize the light crude oil combustion and kinetics in the presence of copper(I) chloride (CuCl) and magnesium chloride (MgCl2·6H2O). In TG-DTA experiments with magnesium chloride, three reaction regions were identified, known as distillation, low-temperature oxidation (LTO), and high-temperature oxidation (HTO). In the case of copper(I) chloride, two main transitional stages are observed with...
On the Structure Sensitivity of CO Oxidation on Alumina Supported Pd-Pt Bimetallic Catalysts Kaya, Sarp; Erunal, Ebru; Shaltaf, Riad; Ellialtıoğlu, Süleyman Şinasi; Üner, Deniz (2009-01-01) CO oxidation reaction was studied over monometallic and bimetallic palladium-platinum catalysts at 25:75, 50:50, and 75:25 Pd:Pt atomic fractions co-impregnated over a gamma-Al2O3 support. The size of the metal particles, measured by modified hydrogen chemisorption, increased as the Pd fractions in the catalyst increased. The surface compositions and site metal distributions of the catalysts determined from Monte Carlo simulations indicated that Pd atoms segregated to the surface: at low Pd levels, Pd occup...
Surfactants as hydrate promoters? Karaaslan, U; Parlaktuna, Mahmut (2000-09-01) Natural gas hydrates from different types and concentrations of surfactant solutions were produced in a high-pressure cell. An anionic, a cationic, and a nonionic surfactant were used to prepare different concentration of surfactant solutions from deionized water. Although the thermodynamics of hydrate formation from a gas mixture is not affected with the existence of surfactants in the environment, there is an appreciable effect of type and concentration of surfactant on hydrate formation rate. The hydrate...
The effect of experimental conditions on natural gas hydrate formation Longinos, Sotirios; Parlaktuna, Mahmut; Department of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering (2020) Natural gas hydrates (NGH) are proposed as gas storage and transportation media owing to their high gas content and long-term stability of hydrate crystal structure at common refrigeration temperatures and atmospheric pressure. Technically feasible, cost efficient hydrate production is one of the crucial items of the whole chain of storage and transportation of gas by means of NGH technology. This study investigated the effects of types of impellers and baffles, and the use of promoters on natural gas hydra...
