INVESTIGATION ON THE TECHNOLOGY OF COAL-BED METHANE STORAGE AND TRANSPORT USING GAS HYDRATES

Gas hydrate for natural gas storage and transport is safe and economic.The technology of gas hydrate for coal-bed methane storage and transport has particular advantage.The technology of continuous natural gas hydrate production in a stirred system and semi-continuous natural gas hydrate production in a quiescent system was discussed.A method of continuous coal bed methane hydrate production was given in this work,based on the comparison of the two methods of gas hydrate production.The research contents of hydrate for coal-bed methane storage and transport were pointed out at the last part in this work.
