| Gas hydrates, or clathrate hydrates, are crystalline solids resembling ice, in which small (guest) molecules, typically gases, are trapped inside cavities formed by hydrogen-bonded water (host) molecules. They form and remain stable under low temperatures – often well below ambient conditions – and high pressures ranging from a few bar to hundreds of bar, depending on the guest molecule. Their presence is ubiquitous on Earth, in deep-marine sediments and in permafrost regions, as well as in outer space, on planets or comets. In addition to water, they can be synthesized with organic species as host molecules, resulting in milder stability conditions: these are referred to as semi-clathrate hydrates. Clathrate and semi-clathrate hydrates are being... |

| In recent years, interest for clathrate hydrates has increased, motivated both by their fascinating physiochemical and thermophysical properties and their industrial and practical promises in various areas of application. Following the 2017 publication of Volume 1, which focused on fundamental aspects, modeling and characterization methods, this volume gathers a series of contributions addressing the natural occurrence of clathrate hydrates in sediments on Earth, with implications for the methane cycle, geohazards and energy resources, and then a few promising industrial applications. This volume is intended for scientists, PhD students and engineers who wish to start working on clathrate hydrates and/or want to acquire general knowledge in this area. It... |
