Abstract

The invention discloses a zwitterion-contained copolymer compounded natural gas hydrate inhibitor. According to the compounded natural gas hydrate inhibitor, the monomers including vinyl-epsilon-caprolactam, vinyl pyrrolidone and methylacrylic acid sulfo-acid betaine are initiated to be copolymerized into a random copolymer by adopting a free radical polymerization method, and then the random copolymer and a thermodynamic inhibitor are compounded to inhibit nucleating and growth of a natural gas hydrate. The zwitterion-contained copolymer serves as a kinetic inhibitor and simultaneously showsthe performance of the thermodynamic inhibitor. The zwitterion-contained copolymer is used after being compounded with the alcohol thermodynamic inhibitor, and the using amount of alcohol can be decreased while growth of the hydrate is better inhibited. According to the compounded natural gas hydrate inhibitor, materials are easy to obtain, a method is simple and convenient, conditions are controllable, the prepared compounded natural gas hydrate inhibitor has the good effects that forming and growth of the natural gas hydrate are inhibited.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a copolymer containing a zwitterionic monomer as a natural gas hydrate inhibitor, compounded with a thermodynamic inhibitor, and applied in the field of natural gas transportation. Background technique [0002] Natural gas hydrate is easy to form in the environment of low temperature and high pressure, and forms blockage in the transportation pipeline, which may have adverse effects on human production and life. In order to delay or hinder the nucleation and growth of gas hydrate, people usually add a large amount of thermodynamic inhibitors (THIs) or a small amount of kinetic inhibitors (KHIs) to the transportation pipeline. [0003] Frequently used thermodynamic suppression such as methanol, ethylene glycol, and NaCl can reduce the subcooling required for hydrate formation and increase the pressure required for hydrate formation, thereby delaying the formation of natural gas hydrates. Methanol is used as the Thermodynamic in...
