Evaluation of potassium formate as a potential modifier ofTEG for high performance natural gas dehydration process

Triethylene glycol (TEG) is one of the most effective sorbents for natural gas dehydration. There are many processesusing this approach but none of them can combine high performance and economical energy consumption. In thisstudy hydrocarbon–water phase behavior was investigated for different TEG co...
