摘要翻译：
本文论证了化学自由能是如何通过地质过程产生的。我们提供了一个热力学框架来评估生命是如何在离轴热液喷口系统中出现的；从熵的观点研究了RNA-粘土系统，表明系统在远离平衡态的状态下，通过无机非均相区隔化现象而稳定，能够产生对RNA自我复制有用的化学自由能。

英文摘要：
  In this paper we demonstrate how chemical free energy can be produced by a geological process. We provide a thermodynamic framework in which to assess how life emerged at the off-axis hydrothermal vent system; the RNA - clays system has been investigated from the entropic point of view, showing that the stabilization of the system in a state further away from equilibrium state, by an inorganic heterogeneous compartmetalization phenomena, is able to produce chemical free energy useful for RNA self - replication.
