USE OF A PARTICULAR CARBOXYLIC AMINO ACID IN ORDER TO LIMIT THE FORMATION AND/OR AGGLOMERATION OF GAS HYDRATES

The invention relates to the use of one or more carboxylic amino acids of formula (I), as well as the salts thereof, in order to limit, or even prevent, the formation and/or agglomeration of gas hydrates. The invention also relates to a method for limiting, or even preventing, the formation and/or agglomeration of gas hydrates, using such carboxylic amino acids. La presente invención trata de un uso de uno o varios aminoácidos carboxílicos de fórmula (I), así como sus sales: (I) para limitar, incluso impedir la formación y/o la aglomeración de hidratos de gas. La presente invención se refiere igualmente a un proceso para limitar, incluso impedir la formación y/o la aglomeración de hidratos de gas, implementando tales aminoácidos carboxílicos.
