Nucleation of Methane Hydrate in Water-In-Oil Emulsions: Role of the Phase Boundary

摘要: The processes of nucleation the methane hydrate have been studied for water emulsions (50% (w/w)) in decane, toluene, oil, and their mixtures. experimental data obtained by polythermal technique under pressures 12–13 MPa; each experiments has carried out with a freshly prepared sample emulsion. used to derive survival curves samples describing dependence probability Nu/N0 on temperature T, where Nu is number lacking overcooling particular T N0 total samples. observed constitute two families similar nature: (1) decane toluene (2) oil mixtures or toluene. We suggest that results are explained adsorption some components present systems (surfactant heavy oil) at interface between organic phases ...
