The induction time of 0.2wt natural green materials was measured in a sapphire hydrate reactor at 12°C at 9.5MPa. The induction time of all materials were found to be less than pure water. In the presence of resin induction time decreased 20 more than pure water and the initial rate of hydrate formation was enhanced. Resin enhanced the rate of methane hydrate formation 17 more than pure water. However, compared to SDS the rate of hydrate formation by both natural materials was less. Moreover, natural materials consumed more methane during hydrate formation than pure water. In addition, resin promote methane hydrate formation and could act as suitable kinetic promoter for the natural gas separation, transportation and storage. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd. publisher: Institute of Physics Publishing date: 2018 type: Conference or Workshop Item type: PeerReviewed identifier: Yaqub, S. and Lal, B. and Mellon, N.B. and Sufian, S.B.
