Hi all,
Refineries use many chemicals such as (corrosion inhibitors, scale inhibitors, neutralizers, filmers ... etc) in the utilities sections (water treatment, steam production ... etc) and process units.
We receive many commercial offers when we prepare tenders for supply of such chemicals, as we don't follow a procedure of approved suppliers, we tend to make lab evaluation for different offered chemicals, but we don't have lab tests for all chemicals. Also we can't field test untrusted chemicals.
Can you share your experience in the best methods to evaluate such chemicals by recommending lab tests or experiments (even if prepared by yourselves)to compare the performance of offered chemicals. I'm having a particular problem in evaluating corrosion inhibitors in hydrocarbon systems (crude overhead) .
Thank you.
