Microsecond simulations have been performed to investigate CH4 hydrate formation from gas/water two-phase systems between silica and graphite surfaces, respectively. The hydrophilic silica and hydrophobic graphite surfaces exhibit substantially different effects on CH4 hydrate formation. The graphite surface adsorbs CH4 molecules to form a nanobubble with a flat or negative curvature, resulting in a low aqueous CH4 concentration, and hydrate nucleation does not occur during 2.5 mu s simulation. Moreover, an ordered interfacial water bilayer forms between the nanobubble and graphite surface thus preventing their direct contact. In contrast, the hydroxylated-silica surface prefers to be hydrated by water, with a cylindrical nanobubble formed in the solution, leading to a high aqueous CH4 concentration and hydrate nucleation in the bulk region; during hydrate growth, the nanobubble is gradually covered by hydrate solid and separated from the water phase, hence slowing growth. The silanol groups on the silica surface can form strong hydrogen bonds with water, and hydrate cages need to match the arrangements of silanols to form more hydrogen bonds. At the end of the simulation, the hydrate solid is separated from the silica surface by liquid water, with only several cages forming hydrogen bonds with the silica surface, mainly due to the low CH4 aqueous concentrations near the surface. To further explore hydrate formation between graphite surfaces, CH4/water homogeneous solution systems are also simulated. CH4 molecules in the solution are adsorbed onto graphite and hydrate nucleation occurs in the bulk region. During hydrate growth, the adsorbed CH4 molecules are gradually converted into hydrate solid. It is found that the hydrate-like ordering of interfacial water induced by graphite promotes the contact between hydrate solid and graphite. We reveal that the ability of silanol groups on silica to form strong hydrogen bonds to stabilize incipient hydrate solid, as well as the ability of graphite to adsorb CH4 molecules and induce hydrate-like ordering of the interfacial water, are the key factors to affect CH4 hydrate formation between silica and graphite surfaces.
