Modeling Growth Kinetics of Methane Hydrate in Stirred Tank Batch Reactors
Hydrate formation could be looked upon as multicomponent and multiphase reaction which is heavily dependent on mass transfer and heat transfer limitations even under favorable thermodynamic conditions. Gas uptake measurement is one of the easiest ways to understand the kinetics of hydrate growth. In...

Hydrate formation could be looked upon as multicomponent and multiphase reaction which is heavily dependent on mass transfer and heat transfer limitations even under favorable thermodynamic conditions.
