ENHANCEMENT OF KINETIC INHIBITOR (PVP) WITH ADDITION OF POLYETHYLENE OXIDE (PEO)

Plugging of pipelines and processing equipment has severe economical consequences and poses safety concerns. It is therefore of great interest to prevent the formation of gas hydrates. There are a variety of methods of hydrate prevention which are classified either as thermodynamic or kinetic inh...
