Solar power generation is an important energy resource in most countries. It plays an important role in meeting energy demand, improving energy structure and reducing environmental pollution. The main carrier of solar power generation is solar panels, but the utilization efficiency of most...

Hydrate technology has a bright future in the development of high quality production and life for human being. However, the slow hydrate formation rate and low gas consumption are the biggest two obstacles to the commercial application of the technology. In this study, the macro experimental...

This study investigates empirically what the major factors are which have driven Wenzhou’s informal credit market and how much that market is responsive to monetary policies and the formal banking conditions nationwide. The main findings are: (i) the informal credit lending rates are...

A complete set of scaling criteria for gas hydrate reservoir of five-spot well system case is derived from the 3D governing equations, involving the mass balance equation, the energy balance equation, the kinetic model, the endothermic model and the phase equilibrium model. In the scaling...

Using CO2–CH4 (carbon dioxide–methane) replacement to produce CH4 from NGH (natural gas hydrate) is not only a new CH4 production technology but also a direct way to disposal CO2 by CO2 hydrates. Although there are many studies focusing on the mechanism of CH4 replacement in hydrates by CO2,...

The hydrate-based CO2 (carbon dioxide) separation and capture from CO2/H2 (hydrogen) gas mixtures with the different CO2 concentrations is investigated in 0.29 mol% TBAB (tetra-n-butyl ammonium bromide) solution. Raman spectroscopic analysis is employed to determine the compositions of the...
