PURPOSE: A methane mining system of a methane hydrate layer and a vessel including the same are provided to mine methane by supplying carbon dioxide in a solid state and heated seawater to a methane hydrate layer. CONSTITUTION: A methane mining system of a methane hydrate layer comprises a solid carbon dioxide feeder (11), a solid carbon dioxide inlet (12), a seawater heater (21), a seawater inlet (22), a methane gas absorption pipe (32), and a methane collector (31). The solid carbon dioxide and the seawater inlet supply carbon dioxide in a solid state and heated seawater to a methane hydrate layer. The methane gas absorption pipe absorbs methane gas generated by substituting the carbon dioxide for the methane of the methane hydrate layer. The methane collector collects the methane gas by being connected to the methane gas absorption pipe. [Reference numerals] (AA) Other than methane gas |
