DEVELOPMENT OF ECOLOGICAL EFFECTIVE INHIBITOR FOR ASPHALTENE-RESIN-PARAFFIN DEPOSITS

Abstract

The deposition of asphaltenes, resins and paraffins (ASPs) is one of the important sources of oil sludge formation. The annual increase in the amount of oil sludge in the world creates an environmental problem. Therefore, the prevention of ASF deposits is an important issue from an environmental point of view. To solve this problem, an inhibitor has been developed to prevent the formation of ASPs. The proposed inhibitor reduces the pour point and viscosity of highly paraffinic oils. The developed inhibitor was investigated on NGDU oil. N.Narimanova in which the amount of paraffin exceeds 10.8%.
