VERFAHREN ZUR HEMMUNG VON VERSTOPFUNG VON RÖHREN DURCH GASHYDRATE

摘要

A method for inhibiting hydrate formation in a hydrocarbon flow by adding an amount of a dendrimeric compound effective to inhibit formation of hydrates at conduit temperatures and pressures, and flowing the mixture containing the dendrimeric compound and any hydrates through the conduit. Preferably, a hyperbranched polyester amide is used as hydrate formation inhibitor compound.
