Elliott-Suresh-Donohue (ESD) equation of state (EOS) which is based on thermodynamic perturbation theory and uses the Wertheim association contribution to account for association interactions, is applied to predict hydrate formation conditions in the presence and absence of thermodynamic inhibitors. The ESD EOS is coupled with the van der Waals-Platteuw model. Methane, ethane, propane, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, n-butane and isobutane are considered as gas components and methanol, ethanol, and mono-ethylene glycol (MEG) are thermodynamic inhibitors considered to be present in the aqueous phase. Different cases of single gas and gas mixtures in pure water and in a solution of water and an inhibitor are considered. To achieve more accurate results, binary interaction coefficients are adjusted as a linear function of temperature. Generally, with regard to the results obtained in various cases, it is shown that the application of the ESD EOS in predicting hydrate formation conditions leads to accurate and acceptable results.
