Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of natural gas hydrate development, in particular to a natural gas hydrate synthesis and exploitation simulation experiment system and an experiment method. Background technique
[0002] Natural gas hydrate is a naturally occurring compound with a cage-type microstructure, and its molecular formula has been confirmed as CH 4 Β·8H 2 O, that is, a methane molecule is surrounded by a cage structure formed by 8 water molecules. "Combustible ice" is its common name, because of its ice-like appearance and structure, and it can burn when exposed to fire. "Combustible ice" is an efficient and clean energy source with a high calorific value. Its combustion produces dozens of times more energy than ordinary fossil fuels of the same quality.
[0003] According to estimates by scientists, the total global resources of combustible ice are about 10 trillion tons of oil equivalent, which can be used by humans for 64,000 years. Onl...
