Abstract
Water is an important resource for human life. The lack of clean water in the world now becomes more serious. As a result, seawater desalination to produce fresh water is becoming indispensable. In recent years, hydrate-based desalination is a potential solution for the drinking water shortage issue. Recently, Cyclopentane (CP) is used as a hydrate former for desalination process via crystallization at low temperature and atmospheric pressure. The objective of this study is to provide the new kinetic data of CP hydrates in the presence of sodium chloride with a concentration of 3.5 wt.%. The experimental data for CP hydrates in the presence of sodium chloride are obtained in a batch reactor system with a setup temperature range of -2.5 to -0.5 oC and at atmospheric pressure. The effects of temperature, agitation speed and amount of CP on kinetics of CP hydrate formation are also performed.
