Abstract
Clathrate hydrates are ice-like inclusion compounds which form at high pressures (P) and low temperatures (T) with non-polar guest molecules surrounded by hydrogen-bonded water cages. Hydrates are applicable to wide ranges of industrial and scientific environments comprising modeling of climate change, CO2 sequestration, hydrocarbon extraction, natural gas and hydrogen storage, refrigeration and separation technologies, planetary surface chemistry, and marine biology. Clathrate hydrates created from small gas molecules are normally denoted as gas hydrates and are influenced by the type of gas molecule and the thermodynamic circumstances to adopt various configurations (Sloan and Koh, 2008).
