The production of natural gas via injection of fossil-fuel derived CO2 into submarine gas hydrate reservoirs can be an example of tapping a hydrocarbon energy source in a CO2-neutral manner. However, the industrial application of this method is technically challenging. Thus, prior to feasibility testing in the field, multi-scale laboratory experiments and adapted reaction-modeling are needed. To this end, high-pressure flow-through reactors of 15 and 2000 mL sample volume were constructed and tested. Process parameters (P, T, Q, fluid composition) are defined by a fluid supply and conditioning unit to enable simulation of natural fluid-flow scenarios for a broad range of sedimentary settings. Additional Raman- and NMR-spectroscopy aid in identifying the most efficient pathway for CH4 extraction from hydrates via CO2 injection on both microscopic and macroscopic level. In this study we present experimental set-up and design of the highpressure flow-through reactors as well as CH4 yields from H4-hydrate decomposition experiments using CO2-rich brines and pure liquefied CO2.
