Project general information Title: Clathrate hydrates for CCUS Acronym: KLATHRON Financing organism: The Executive Unit for the Financing of Higher Education, Research, Development, and Innovation (UEFISCDI) – Ministry of National Education (MEN) Project type: P4 – Fundamental and Frontier Research – Exploratory Research Projects (PCE) Project Code: PN-III-P4-PCE-2021-0717 KLATHRON project aims to contribute to the realization of advanced green processing and to create innovative multidisciplinary research in the field of clathrate hydrates combining the key concepts of energy and environmental sustainability. Clathrate hydrates have potential applications in various domains (sea water desalination, waste water treatment, natural gas transport and storage, hydrogen storage, materials for the storage of energy and environmental-related gases, gas mixture separation applications, refrigeration and air conditioning applications, photovoltaic applications, exploitation of potential sources of natural gas from permafrost and marine sediments, space, cryo-conservation of biological specimens, etc.) and particularly for carbon dioxide (CO2) capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS), where the interest is scientific, technological, and economic.
