Abstract: A system for forming gas hydrates includes a reactor adapted to receive a hydrate-forming fluid and a reaction fluid and react the hydrate-forming and reaction fluids within a reverse micellar solution to form gas hydrate particles; and a gas hydrate removal system coupled to the reactor, the gas hydrate removal system adapted to receive the gas hydrate particles within the reverse micellar solution and transport the gas hydrate particles away from the reactor. The gas hydrate removal system is adapted to transport gas hydrate particles away from the reactor concurrently with the formation of gas hydrate particles within the reactor.

Abstract: Provided is a joint which can be easily detached from and attached to pipes, in which a flange joint is connected air-tightly at a connection portion of medium-size or large-size pipes, without using bolts. In the pipe joint, flanges are formed at both ends of connection tubes for respective pipes, connection units are fitted with the flanges, to then make the flanges and the connection units easily connected using a connector, respectively, in order to prevent the flanges from seceding from the connection units, respectively, a protrusion and an O-ring groove are formed at the end of one connection tube to thus make an O-ring fitted into the O-ring groove, and a concave portion is formed on the inner circumference of the other connection tube, to thereby closely contact the O-ring at the state where the protrusion closely contacts the groove, to thus maintain air-tightness.
