Rapid Hydrate Formation, A Process for Transport and Storage of Natural Gas

Taylor C.E., Brown T., Unione A., U.S. Department of Energy, US

Experimental results from the Na¬tional Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) show that rapid and continu¬ous formation of methane hydrate, as well as other gas-derived hydrates is achievable. The goal of this technology is to pro¬vide a [...]

Bioenergy production from wastes and wastewaters in China

Fang H.H.P., The University of Hong Kong, HK

China is investing billions of US dollars annually on renewable energy production. China is leading the world not only in wind and solar energy production, but also in harnessing bioenergy from wastes and wastewater. The [...]

Belosludov R.V., Belosludov V.R., Mizuseki H., Subbotin O.S., Belosludov R.V., Belosludov V.R., Kawazoe Y., Institute for Materials Research, Tohoku University, JP

The possible formation of hydrogen hydrate, a class of inclusion compounds consisting of water and hydrogen as host and guest molecules, respectively, with different structures by adding various guest molecules suggests the practical feasibility of [...]

Expermental Study of CH4/H2 Mixtures in Internal Combustion Engines

Kahraman N., Albayrak Çeper B., Akansu S.O., Bayrak M., Erciyes University, TR

In this study, an experimental study on the performance of a spark ignition engine fuelled with CH4/ H2 mixtures (90%CH4 +10%H2 and80%CH4 +20%H2)was performed at different engine speed and different injection timing coefficient (ITC). This [...]
