Experimental study of emissions from the combustion of methane-isopropanol and methane-propane hydrates.

This work is devoted to an experimental study of the concentrations of gaseous emissions generated during the combustion of methane-isopropanol and methane-propane hydrates, as well as the dissociation rate at various temperatures in a muffle furnace. An increase in temperature from 700 to 1100 °C led to an increase in the rate of dissociation of double gas hydrates during combustion by 1.4–1.6 times. Increasing the temperature of the muffle furnace led to both a decrease in CO and H2 emissions and an increase in NOX and CO2 during the combustion of gas hydrates. The average concentrations of H2 and CO without combustion for methane-isopropanol is higher than for the methane-propane hydrate, and the average concentrations of NOX and CO2 differ depending on the temperature of the furnace.
