TLDR
In this paper, the authors compared the properties of hydrates and ice with those of natural gas and showed the effect of thermodynamic inhibitors on the formation of hydrate formation and dissolution process.Abstract:

Thermal and visual time-series at a seafloor gas hydrate deposit on the Gulf of Mexico slope
TL;DR: In this article, a monitoring array comprising a time-lapse camera and in-situ temperature probes was deployed at a hydrocarbon seep known as Bush Hill, where gas hydrates deposits are exposed at the seafloor in a water depth of 570 m.

Stochastic nature of carbon dioxide hydrate induction times in Na-montmorillonite and marine sediment suspensions
TL;DR: In this article, the authors identified stochastic nature of CO2 hydrate induction times in Na-montmorillonite (Na-MMT) and marine sediment suspensions, and investigated the induction time patterns at different hydrate forming conditions.

Inhibition effects of thermally degraded MEG on hydrate formation for gas systems
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the hydrate inhibition performance of mono-ethylene glycol (MEG) after it was thermally exposed to high temperatures and found that the degradation products from these samples were then analysed by third party laboratories using two techniques: ion chromatography (IC) and high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectroscopy (HPLC-MS).

Shunsuke Horii,Ryo Ohmura +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a continuous separation of CO2 from a model fuel gas was performed for H2+CO2+H2O and H2 + CO2+Tetra-n-butylammonium bromide (TBAB) systems with TBAB mass fractions of 0, 0.05, and 0.10, respectively.
