Molecular dynamics simulation studies were employed to investigate the microscopic behaviors of CH4 and CO2 molecules in slit-nanopores (SNPs) with various surfaces and different compositions. Three kinds of SNPs were constructed by a pair-wise combination of graphene, silica, and the calcite surface. The grand canonical Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics simulation methods were used to investigate the adsorption and self-diffusion of the gases in the nanopores. It is found that in all three cases, the CH4 molecules prefer to adsorb onto the graphene surface, whereas the CO2 molecules prefer to adsorb onto the calcite surface. The adsorption intensity of gases adsorbed onto various surfaces, the adsorption distances, along with the details of adsorption orientations of CH4 and CO2 molecules on various surfaces are calculated. The surface characteristics, such as surface roughness and charge distribution, are analyzed to help understand the microscopic adsorption behaviors of the gases on the specific surface. It was found that competitive adsorptions of CO2 over CH4 broadly occurred, especially in the SNPs containing calcite, because of the strong adsorption interactions between the CO2 molecules and the calcite surface. This work provides the microbehaviors of CH4 and CO2 in SNPs with various surfaces in different compositions to provide useful guidance for better understanding about the microstate of gases in complex nanoporous shale formation and to give out useful guidance for enhancing shale gas recovery by injecting CO2.

表面成分对狭缝纳米孔中CH 4和CO 2微行为的影响:模拟探索

利用分子动力学模拟研究来研究CH 4和CO 2分子在具有不同表面和不同成分的狭缝纳米孔(SNP)中的微观行为。通过石墨烯,二氧化硅和方解石表面的成对组合来构造三种SNP。采用经典的蒙特卡洛方法和分子动力学模拟方法研究了纳米孔中气体的吸附和自扩散。发现在所有三种情况下,CH 4分子都倾向于吸附在石墨烯表面上,而CO 2则倾向于吸附在石墨烯表面上。分子更喜欢吸附在方解石表面上。计算了吸附在各种表面上的气体的吸附强度,吸附距离以及CH 4和CO 2分子在各种表面上的吸附取向的细节。分析表面特性,例如表面粗糙度和电荷分布,以帮助了解特定表面上气体的微观吸附行为。已经发现,由于CO 2分子与方解石表面之间的强吸附相互作用,特别是在含方解石的SNP中,广泛发生了CO 2在CH 4上的竞争性吸附。这项工作提供了CH 4的微行为具有不同组成的不同表面的SNP中的CO2和CO 2,为更好地了解复杂的纳米多孔页岩形成中的气体微观状态提供了有用的指导,并为通过注入CO 2增强页岩气的采收率提供了有用的指导。
