Study on the application and mechanism of enhanced methane recovery from hydrate
Energy is a key element for human survival and development. The current dominant primary energy sources worldwide are natural gas, oil, and coal, the supply of which is dwindling and causing environmental problems. Highly efficient and clean energy sources are of great importance for sustainable dev...

Energy is a key element for human survival and development. The current dominant primary energy sources worldwide are natural gas, oil, and coal, the supply of which is dwindling and causing environmental problems. Highly efficient and clean energy sources are of great importance for sustainable development. Natural gas hydrates, the main component of which is methane, have received growing attention in the global energy system due to their abundance in nature and CO 2 neutrality, if properly extracted with CO 2 injection, compared to conventional fossil fuels. Although discovered in 1883, extensive research was only initiated during the last 50 years by scientists from the micro to macro scales. Major gas hydrates exploitation methods include chemical injection, thermal stimulation, pressure reduction, and CO 2 replacement. Each method has advantages and disadvantages, but the depressurization and CO 2 replacement methods show relative superiority compared to the others. The combination of depressurization and CO 2 replacement shows a higher recovery rate and efficiency. At the present research stage, the replacement gas employed in the laboratory studies varies from pure CO2 (either in liquid or gaseous form) to simulated flue gas (a CO 2 and N 2 gas mixture).
