METHOD FOR INHIBITING THE PLUGGING OF CONDUITS BY GAS HYDRATES

A method for inhibiting the plugging of a conduit by gas hydrates comprises adding to a mixture of water and hydrocarbons flowing through the conduit an amount of a hydrate formation inhibitor component of formula (a), wherein two of R1-R4 are independently normal or branched alkyls having 4 or carb...

Zusammenfassung:A method for inhibiting the plugging of a conduit by gas hydrates comprises adding to a mixture of water and hydrocarbons flowing through the conduit an amount of a hydrate formation inhibitor component of formula (a), wherein two of R1-R4 are independently normal or branched alkyls having 4 or carbon atoms, two of R1-R4 are independently representing organic moieties having at least 8 carbon atoms, A represents a nitrogen or phosphorus atom, and Y represents an anion.
