Airable partnered with LFS Chemistry to develop a soy-based scale-inhibiter for the oil & gas industry:

​​​​

  1. LFS reached out to Airable to develop a soy-based scale inhibitor.

  2. Airable screened soy-based chemistries to identify ones with the required properties:

    • Water solubility, Standard API brine solubility, and High pH stability​​

  3. Airable conducted primary characterization on promising formulations to determine:

    • Effectiveness, Temperature stability, Cation tolerance, Iron tolerance, Low toxicity, Biodegradability, Cost/performance index, and Specific formation brine tolerance

  4. Airable modified the selected formulation to match LFS’s precise characteristics.

  5. LFS evaluated the formulation, confirming that it significantly delays scale formation.

  6. Airable scaled up the product and transferred the technology to LFS for commercialization
