A search into a viable method for natural gas conversion to methanol becomes imperative not only to save the soul of the ever-changing climate but also to bring an end to wastage of valuable resources by converting hitherto wasted natural gas to wealth. Currently the technologies of conversion of natural gas to methanol could be categorized into the conventional and the innovative technologies. The conventional technology is sub-divided into the indirect method also called the Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis (FTS) method and the direct method. The major commercial technology currently in use for </span>production of methanol<span> from methane is the FTS method which involves basically two steps which are the steam reforming<span> and the syngas<span> hydrogenation steps. The FTS method is highly energy intensive and this is a factor responsible for its low energetic efficiency. The direct conversion of methane to methanol is a one-step partial oxidation and lower temperature method having higher energetic efficiency advantage over the FTS method. The direct method occurs at temperature range of 380–470 °C and pressure range of 1–5 MPa while the FTS occurs at temperature range of 700–1100 °C and atmospheric pressure. Both methods are carried out under effect of metallic oxide catalysts such as Mo, V, Cr, Bi, Cu, Zn, etc. The innovative methods which include electrochemical, solar and plasma irradiation methods can be described as an approach to either of the two conventional methods in an innovative way while the biological method is a natural process driven by methane monooxygenase (MMO) enzyme released by methanotrophic bacteria.

This study uses a new testing assembly that combines gas drainage and low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) tests to determine the water retention curves of artificially synthesized </span>clay silty<span><span> specimens. The effect of hydrate on the pore size distributions and water retention curves is analyzed via NMR transverse relaxation time curve distributions, and the mechanism of changes in the water retention curve parameters is further discussed. The results show that </span>hydrate formation<span> decreases the proportion of pores with sizes greater than 15 μm and increases the proportion of pores with sizes less than 3.5 μm in clay silty sediments. Hydrate formation increases capillary pressure and prevents available water migration. The presence of hydrate exponentially increases the normalized capillary pressure but exponentially decreases the normalized curve shape factor, yielding narrower curve distributions. The gas entry pressure and curve shape factor exhibit linear correlations with the pore size distribution parameters. The results imply that the changes in the water retention curves are strongly related to the initial pore size distributions. This study offers a deep understanding of capillary effects-related water retention characteristics and their underlying links with the pore size distributions, and demonstrates that low-field NMR has great potential for characterizing water retention curves of GHBSs.</span></span></p></div>","PeriodicalId":372,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Natural Gas Science and Engineering","volume":"108 ","pages":"Article 104833"},"PeriodicalIF":4.965,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"3137333","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
