Phenomenological Modeling of Hydrate Formation and Dissociation

  • Chapter
Advances in the Study of Gas Hydrates

Conclusions

The proposed hydrate formation and dissociation models describe fairly well the behavior of the experimental data for different experimental conditions and apparatus, while providing important insights into the mechanism of the hydrate formation and dissociation processes.
