Phase Equilibrium and Formation Behavior of the CO2−TBPB Semiclathrate Hydrate for Cold Storage Applications Xiaolin Wang* and Mike Dennis Research School of Engineering, The Australian National University, Canberra 2601, Australia ABSTRACT: Cold thermal storage is primarily used for demand management on electricity grids due to air conditioner use. The CO2 hydrate has been widely studied as a cold storage medium for its proper phase equilibrium temperature range and large latent heat. This study presents experimental work on the phase equilibrium behavior of the CO2 hydrate under applicable pressures (
