Storage and transportation of greenhouse gases such as methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) are of current interest and converting them into hydrates a priori is a workable option. Bottlenecks such as sluggish and inefficient hydrate conversions can be defeated with the help of suitable porous materials. However, reusability of the porous material is a crucial issue. The present study reports the sustainability of low density silica (SiO2), as matrix material, for a number of freezing thawing cycles without significant loss in hydrate fractions. The experiments on CH4 and CO2 hydrates were conducted respectively at 7.3-7.6 MPa and 3.6-3.8 MPa; in the temperature range of 270-300 K. The faster formation kinetics (t(90) < 2 h, where t(90) is the time taken for 90% of total hydrate conversion) and the overall hydrate conversions (similar to 75%) are attractive features. Thus, the hydrate system consisting of SiO2 - H2O - CH4/CO2 is suitable for gas storage and transportation applications; and possesses features such as rapid and high convertibility to hydrate and also high recyclability.
