Abstract

When methane hydrate is artificially formed, the amount of consumed gas becomes low. In addition, there is no reproducibility at the repetition experiments of the same conditions. Therefore, for the practical purpose in the application, the present investigation focuses on the rapid production and reproducibility. The results show that subcooling condition of methane hydrate must be above 8K in order to form hydrate rapidly, and the hydrate formation is a stochastic phenomenon
