The demand for energy is growing in the world, and therefore attention has been focused on the use of possible alternative energy sources. For countries with limited access to common hydrocarbon gases, methane hydrates appear to be a potential source of energy. Under certain pressure and temperature conditions, it is also possible to produce hydrates of hydrocarbon gases under laboratory conditions. However, we are currently at a very early stage in the development of methane hydrates. The transition from scientific theory to practical extraction is currently underway. This article describes the influence of selected physical parameters on the nucleation rate of hydrocarbon gas hydrates.
