Abstract
Inorganic substances and most organic compounds are typically excluded from crystalline hydrate structures. In this study, the phenomenon and mechanism of organic exclusions during hydrate formation were investigated using MD simulations and in-situ observations with an MRI experimental apparatus. The results showed that the organic macromolecules could not be trapped in the hydrate structure and formed a concentration gradient of dissolved organic substances from the growth front of the CO2 hydrate into the aqueous solution. This study demonstrates the hydrate-based technology would be a promising method for organic wastewater treatment.
