A Chinese refinery found its own imidazoline-type corrosion inhibitor to exhibit superior properties in laboratory and commercial testing. Tests in a crude-tower overhead system showed inhibition efficiency to be 96%. The paper discusses corrosion inhibitors used in the past, the composition of the new inhibitor, corrosion tests, commercial trials, and economics.
