Abstract

See full text

A process and apparatus for producing a gas at a pre-set delivery pressure are described. Using the process, hydrates and a liquid are introduced to a vessel to at least partially fill the vessel. The liquid must have a freezing point lower than the hydrate dissolution temperature to avoid freezing of the liquid when it comes into contact with the hydrates. The vessel is sealed against release of gas from the vessel before dissolving at least a portion of the hydrates to produce liberated gas and free water. When the operating pressure of the vessel is at or above the pre-set delivery pressure, the liberated gas is released at the pre-set delivery pressure and may be subjected to further conditioning before delivery to an end user.
