METHOD FOR TAKING OUT HYDRATE SLURRY

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for taking out hydrate slurry capable of highly efficiently and smoothly taking out the hydrate slurry. SOLUTION: In a method to take out hydrate slurry from a storage tank to store in a state that a water solution and hydrate slurry are separated in stratification; (1) a partition wall to divide the storage tank into a tank 1 and a tank 2 is situated, and the hydrate slurry is caused to flow in the tank 1 from the tank 2 through a communication part situated in the partition wall and the hydrate slurry is taken out from the tank 1; (2) a slurry storage container is situated adjacently to the storage tank and the hydrate slurry floating and separated in the storage tank is caused to flow over to the slurry storage container and the hydrate slurry is taken out from the slurry storage container; (3) the hydrate slurry is taken out from a hydrate slurry discharge pipe having a plurality of suction hole formed in the internal part of the storage tank; and (4) a plate-form body is situated on the liquid surface of the hydrate slurry in the storage tank for the hydrate slurry.
