Abstract
Gas hydrates, also known as clathrates are naturally occurring icelike solids in which guest molecules like methane,chlorine, carbon dioxide,<br>nitrogen etc. are entrapped inside host (Water) molecule.It is estimated that 1 m3 of natural gas hydrate can accommodate around<br>164.3 m3 of methane gas.
