Evaluation on the Effect of Inhibitor Ratio to the Wax Deposition of Local Malaysian Crude
It is important to understand the fundamental nature of petroleum wax formation since this problem is still a challenging issue in the crude oils industry. The application of a wax inhibitor was introduced in this study to reduce the wax. Poly (ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) (EVA) and diethanolmines (D...
