| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Methane hydrate is expected as alternative energy resource, and the microwave irradiation is considered effective accelerating decomposition during production. This study has investigated the characteristics of methane hydrate formation and decomposition with experimentally forming massive and sand pore filling hydrates by using R-11, clarified decomposition characteristics of the massive hydrate and sand pore filling hydrate with microwave irradiation, and evaluated its contribution to enhance decomposition efficiency for sand pore filling hydrate in a subsurface natural condition. An exothermic reaction is observed at the time of decomposition, and the formation and decomposition efficiency for sand pore filling hydrate are higher than those of massive hydrate. Lower frequency of microwave is more effective than higher frequency in decomposition efficiency, and is effective for pore filling hydrate of sandy layers in such as Nankai Trough with 60-80% hydrate saturation in pore space.
