Description
Polyglycerol-containing compound hydrate thermodynamic inhibitor and application thereof Technical Field The application relates to a hydrate inhibitor and application thereof, in particular to a compound hydrate thermodynamic inhibitor containing polyglycerol and application thereof. Background When methane is transported by a transport pipeline, hydrate is generated, the generation process is represented as a guest molecule entering water molecules on a molecular level, a cage structure is formed under the action of hydrogen bonds, and a similar ice substance is formed macroscopically, wherein common guest molecules include carbon dioxide, methane and the like. In a low-temperature and high-pressure environment, the hydrate is extremely easy to generate, and in order to prevent the formation and blockage of the natural gas hydrate in the pipeline from bringing safety risks and economic losses to the production and transportation system, the hydrate needs to be subjected to inhibition treatment. Currently, the water-repellent compounds for pipes are mainly heated, decompressed, dehydrated and chemically treated. Where chemical methods typically use chemicals to inhibit hydrate formation or slow hydrate polymerization, they do not interfere with the normal flow of the pipe in use. The injection of thermodynamic inhibitors such as methanol and monoethylene glycol is the most mature and common method for preventing hydrate formation in pipelines by transferring the hydrate stability zone to high pressure and low temperature zones, but the thermodynamic inhibitors are used in large amounts, easily causing environmental pollution, and are generally used in amounts of about 20 to 60wt% (refer to papers :Lim W V ,Metaxas J P ,Stanwix L P , et al.Gas hydrate formation probability and growth rate as a function of kinetic hydrate inhibitor (KHI) concentration[J].Chemical Engineering Journal,2020,388:124177-124177). Treating the pipe hydrates by physical methods such as heating, depressurizing, etc., increases the risk of pipe breakage. Conventional hydrate-inhibiting chemicals include thermodynamic inhibitors (THIs), kinetic inhibitors (KHIs) and anti-Agglomeration Agents (AAs). Wherein THIs can transfer the hydrate stability zone to a high-pressure low-temperature zone to inhibit the formation of hydrate, thereby preventing the blockage caused by the hydrate in the pipeline. However, the use of conventional THIs in large amounts can adversely affect the environment. The concentration requirements of KHIs and AAs, although relatively low, are difficult to exert inhibitory effects under high pressure subcooling conditions. For the above reasons, it is necessary to study a compound thermodynamic inhibitor which combines the characteristics of environmental friendliness and high supercooling resistance. Disclosure of Invention The application aims to provide a polyglycerol-containing compound hydrate thermodynamic inhibitor which has the characteristics of environmental friendliness and high supercooling resistance, and on the basis of the aim, the application also aims to provide application of the polyglycerol-containing compound hydrate thermodynamic inhibitor.
