The study of methane hydrate growth kinetics by NMR method

Abstract

The nuclear magnetic resonance method conducted researches of longterm kinetics of growth of methane of hydrate on limit of the section gas - liquid (water). The amount of the formed methane of hydrate was registered according to the analysis of a signal of recession of a free induction. To methane to hydrate that part of a signal which was characterized by small time of a cross relaxation belonged. The analysis of kinetic curves of growth of thickness of a film of methane of hydrate on limit of the section gas-liquid showed that they aren't described within the assumption of normal diffusion of molecules of methane through a film of methane of hydrate. The detailed analysis of dependence of a share of a signal of methane of hydrate from time allows to suggest about abnormal diffusive process.
