Abstract
In this paper, we present two different approaches to represent/predict the gas hydrate phase equilibria for the carbon dioxide, methane, or ethane + pure water system in the presence of various types of porous media with different pore sizes. The studied porous media include silica gel, mesoporous silica, and porous silica glass. First, a correlation is presented, which estimates the hydrate suppression temperature due to the pore effects from the ice point depression (IPD). In the second place, several mathematical models are proposed using the least squares support vector machine (LSSVM) algorithm for the determination of the dissociation pressures of the corresponding systems. The results indicate that although the applied correlation based on the (IPD) leads to obtaining reliable results for the gas hydrate systems in the presence of porous silica glass media, the developed LSSVM models seem to be more general due to their predictive capability over all of the investigated systems.
