SISTEMA E METODO PER PRODURRE GAS IDRATO

A system for producing gas hydrate starting from a flow of unpurified water, for example waste water or saline water, in particular sea water. The system comprises a multiphase multistage pump which receives at a main inlet, which is at the first stage of the pump, the flow of unpurified water and at a secondary inlet, which is at an intermediate stage of the pump, a substance in gas state to form the hydrate of. The pump is configured to increase the pressure of fluids and deliver pressurized fluids to a reactor which is configured to generate gas hydrate starting from the pressurized fluids. The reactor is configured to deliver fluid comprising gas hydrate, unreacted substance and/or water to a separator which has at least two outlets: a first (main) outlet which outputs gas hydrate and a second (secondary) outlet which is fluidly coupled to the secondary inlet and which outputs unreacted substance and/or water. An innovative system as described above can be implemented in different plants and can be used to produce purified water and/or purified gas or for energy storage in the form of gas hydrate particles.
