What is "combustible ice"? Gas hydrates, formed under high pressure in the permafrost or cold seabed over a long period of time, often appearing as translucent or opaque ice, can be burned at normal temperature and pressure, thus given the nickname "combustible ice." Sustainability of humanity: Methane hydrate is another type of natural gas treasure among the strategies to mitigate the global climate change caused by the greenhouse effect and is also related to the important factors of continental plate slope stability and energy security.

What is "combustible ice"? Gas hydrates, formed under high pressure in the permafrost or cold seabed over a long period of time, often appearing as translucent or opaque ice, can be burned at normal temperature and pressure, thus given the nickname "combustible ice." Sustainability of humanity: Methane hydrate is another type of natural gas treasure among the strategies to mitigate the global climate change caused by the greenhouse effect and is also related to the important factors of continental plate slope stability and energy security. Challenge of science and engineering: As different characteristics of the gas hydrates in the sediments, today's existing technology must be significantly broken through to be able to successfully develop these resources. Global overview: The milestones of the development of gas hydrate resources around the world are reviewed, such as the United States, Japan, Canada, China, India, and Taiwan. Energy of the future: One cubic meter of combustible ice contains about 164 cubic meters of natural gas. The potential of natural gas energy recoverable from global methane hydrate formations is two times the fossil fuel energy available to the world.
