Magnesium-Induced Rapid Nucleation of Tetrahydrofuran Hydrates

Hydrates are ice-like crystalline structures of hydrogen-bonded water molecules that trap a guest molecule. Hydrates have several applications, including carbon sequestration, gas separation, desalination, etc. A classical major challenge associated with artificial hydrate formation is the very long...

520 |a Hydrates are ice-like crystalline structures of hydrogen-bonded water molecules that trap a guest molecule. Hydrates have several applications, including carbon sequestration, gas separation, desalination, etc. A classical major challenge associated with artificial hydrate formation is the very long induction time to nucleate hydrates. This has spurred the development of multiple chemical, mechanical, and electrical strategies to promote nucleation. Presently, we discover that magnesium can significantly promote the nucleation of tetrahydrofuran (THF) hydrates. While magnesium has been recently shown (by our group) to promote the formation of carbon dioxide hydrates (gas-liquid system), this study discovers that the benefits of magnesium extend to liquid-liquid hydrate systems as well. Experiments show that magnesium reduces the induction time for THF hydrate nucleation with deionized (DI) water and saltwater by six and eight times, respectively. Magnesium-induced nucleation rate enhancements for hydrate formation with DI water and saltwater were 12 and 99 times, respectively. Importantly, we demonstrate near-instantaneous nucleation when magnesium is introduced after the hydrate-forming system reaches suitable thermodynamic conditions. We conduct statistically significant measurements of nucleation and XPS analysis to identify the underlying mechanisms responsible for nucleation. We discuss multiple phenomena at play, including chemical and mechanistic promotion pathways. The formation of hydrogen bubbles and the presence of magnesium ions in solution are seen as important to magnesium-based nucleation promotion. Importantly, very low amounts of Mg are consumed in this process unlike in traditional chemical promotion techniques. Overall, our discovery can enable on-demand nucleation of liquid-liquid hydrate systems, which is critical to the development of several applications
