Introduction

Research in energy-related chemistry increasingly requires the integration of molecular-scale characterization with measurements of macroscopic phase behavior. Coal–water interactions and gas-hydrate systems are examples in which intermolecular interactions, sorption, diffusion, nucleation, and thermodynamic conditions influence observable material properties. Smirnov’s recent publications address several of these interconnected questions, providing experimental observations and model-based interpretations of processes relevant to carbonaceous materials and gas-hydrate systems.
