"Quantification of CO2 Replacement in Methane Gas Hydrates: A Molecular" by Shashika Gajanayake, Ranjith Pathegama Gamage et al.
Extraction of methane from natural gas hydrates whilst storing CO2 via gas replacement is a promising approach for reducing anthropogenic CO2 emissions during energy generation. In this study, molecular dynamic simulations were performed to identify the influence of temperature, pressure, and the initial CO2 concentration of sweep gas on the gas replacement characteristics. Simulations were performed under selected pressure and temperature conditions using five different initial CO2 concentrations. The simulation results clearly portray the replacement phenomena where methane molecules are rel...
