Written on July 1, 2010 at 9:01 pm, by Dr. Mahmood Moshfeghian
Many materials may be added to water to depress the hydrate temperature. For many practical reasons, a thermodynamic hydrate inhibitor (THI) such as an alcohol or one of the glycols is injected, usually methanol, diethylene glycol (DEG) or monoethylene glycol (MEG). All may be recovered and recirculated, but the economics of methanol recovery may notContinue Reading
