Description

Method for forming hydrate by clay medium
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of hydrates, in particular to a method for forming hydrates by clay media.
Background
The gas hydrate is a compound composed of water molecules and gas molecules under high-pressure and low-temperature conditions. Under the conditions of proper low temperature and high pressure, water molecules form cage structures with different shapes and sizes through hydrogen bonding, and different kinds of gas molecules are trapped in the cage structures to form gas hydrates. Most of the component gases of natural gas can form hydrates including methane, carbon dioxide, hydrogen, and other gases of similar molecular size.
The natural gas hydrate is widely distributed in nature and has huge reserves, and is mainly distributed in ocean or fresh water lake sedimentary layers with the depth of more than 300m and permafrost layers. Research suggests that 20.7% of land and 90% of the ocean floor satisfy the temperature and pressure conditions required for natural gas hydrate formation, and the amount of carbon accumulated in global natural gas hydrates is estimated to be about twice as large as the total carbon reserve in traditional fossil energy sources (coal, oil, natural gas, oil shale, etc.). To date, at least 116 natural gas hydrate occurrence areas have been discovered globally, including land areas 38 (permafrost areas) and sea areas 78. Abundant methane hydrate reserves are distributed in China. In 2008, natural gas hydrate sample is found in permafrost region of Qilian mountain in Qinghai province; and in 2013, in the east sea area of the Zhujiang mouth basin in the coastal Guangdong, a high-purity natural gas hydrate sample is obtained by drilling in 6-9 months.
In order to scientifically utilize the energy with huge reserves, researchers at home and abroad carry out a great deal of research in laboratories aiming at various physical properties of the natural gas hydrate. Under natural conditions, natural gas hydrate mainly exists in various sediments, and pure hydrate exists in a large block form, and accounts for less than 6% of all hydrate resources. Therefore, the current research adopts the first formation of hydrate in various porous media, and then uses the synthesized sample to perform various researches.
In a real marine environment, the natural gas hydrate does not exist in quartz sand and silt media with large particles and good water permeability and air permeability. The survey results show that more than 90% of hydrates in the marine environment are present in clay or silty clay with fine particles, dense internal structure and very low permeability. However, since the internal particle structure of clay is very compact, external gas cannot enter the clay to form hydrate under conventional experimental conditions, and the in-situ formation of natural gas hydrate in the clay medium is a worldwide problem at present.

The application provides a method for forming a hydrate by a clay medium, which can solve the problem that external gas cannot enter clay to form the hydrate in the prior art.
The embodiment of the invention provides a method for forming a hydrate by clay medium, which comprises the following steps:
providing a hydrate forming reactor and a clay sample, and placing the clay sample with a preset water content in the hydrate forming reactor;

providing a cold source and a water source, wherein the cold source acts on the top of the clay sample to enable the clay sample to be frozen from the top to the bottom of the clay sample, and the water source provides water for the clay sample to form a plurality of layered fractional ice on the clay sample;
providing high-pressure gas, closing the hydrate forming reactor, stopping water supply from a water source, and filling the high-pressure gas into the hydrate forming reactor;
and providing a heat source, wherein the heat source acts on the bottom of the clay sample to melt the layered segregation ice formed by the clay sample from the bottom of the clay sample to the top of the clay sample.

In addition, before the process, layered segregation ice formed inside the clay sample is fully and stratically loosened in the horizontal direction on the inside of the clay sample, and a large number of large-size pore channels and transverse separation spaces are formed in the horizontal direction on the inside of the clay sample; therefore, in a closed hydrate forming reactor and in a high-pressure environment, in the process of melting layered segregation ice in the clay sample layer by layer from the bottom to the top of the clay sample, once the solid ice is melted, the solid ice immediately changes into a hydrate and starts to grow; meanwhile, the heat source acts on the bottom of the clay sample to heat the clay sample, so that liquid water at the bottom of the clay sample is driven to the melting frontal surface with lower temperature, a water source required by the growth process is provided for the formed hydrate, and the hydrate continuously grows.
