利用水合物实现天然气的固态输送

A New Way of Gas Transportation——Solid-state Transportation of Natural Gas in the Form of Hydrates,

介绍了天然气水合物的结构、性质及生成条件,讨论了天然气水合物作为一种高度压缩的固态天然气在输气中的应用。对天然气四种运输形式的成本进行了比较,结果表明,利用天然气水合物进行固态输送时成本最低。认为天然气的这种输送方式是输气工艺的新方向,具有广阔的应用前景。提出了利用水合物进行天然气固态输送在实现工业化过程中一些尚待解决的技术问题。

In the paper,the structure,properties and formation conditions of natural gas hydrates (NGH) are presented,and the prospects of solide-state transportation for natural gas in the form of NGH are emphatically discussed. The capital costs of four forms for natural gas transportation have been compared ,and the results have shown that the costs of an NGH chain is the lowest than that of others ,and it should be a new way of gas transportation. Some technical problems that needs to be solved in the performance of gas transportation in the form of NGH are put forward.
