Abstract:The amount of energy
in natural gas hydrates is thought
to be equivalent
to twice that of all other fossil fuels combined. However, economic
and safe energy recovery has remained a challenge till now. To develop
a novel method of breaking the hydrogen bonds (HBs) surrounding the
trapped gas molecules, we investigated the vibrational spectra of
the HBs of gas hydrates with structure types II and H. Two models
of 576-atom propane–methane sII hydrate and 294-atom neohexane–methane
sH hydrate were built. A first-p… Show more
