INFLUENCE OF A SYNERGIST ON THE DISSOCIATION OF HYDRATES FORMED IN THE PRESENCE OF THE KINETIC INHIBITOR POLY VINYL CAPROLACTAM

Gulbrandsen, Ann Cecilie, Svartaas, Thor Martin 07 1900 (has links)
Laboratory tests have been performed using a stirred cell where SI and SII gas hydrates have been formed under the presence of the kinetic inhibitor Poly Vinyl Caprolactam (PVCap) and INHIBEX. The latter is a mixture containing 50wt% PVCap 2k and 50wt% butyl glycol. The effect of PVCap is enhanced by the presence of butyl glycol; the latter acts as a synergist for the former. Dissociation temperatures were obtained and compared for hydrates formed 1) in presence of PVCap and 2) in presence of INHIBEX. The effect of INHIBEX concentration on the temperature of dissociation was also investigated. Systems containing INHIBEX dissociated at lower temperatures than the corresponding systems with only PVCap present. Furthermore, 3000 ppm INHIBEX mixtures were found to have higher dissociation temperatures than 1500 ppm INHIBEX mixtures.
