    Sector HighlightsOil, Gas & Petrochemicals

    Enhancing asset integrity and flow assurance in extreme underground and refining environments.

    Industrial Advantage

    Advancing Sustainability in Oil, Gas & Petrochemicals

    The oil and gas industry demands biocides that are not only powerful but also compatible with complex fluid chemistries. Peracetic Acid provides rapid microbial control while being fully biodegradable, making it perfect for both downhole and surface operations.

    From neutralizing sulfate-reducing bacteria to oxidative desulfurization of fuels, K.D. Incorporation's PAA solutions help preserve infrastructure and improve fuel quality.

    Operational Scope

    Core Applications

    Fracking & Drilling Fluids Biocide

    Pumped downhole to neutralize Sulfate-Reducing Bacteria (SRBs) responsible for devastating Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC) and well souring. PAA heavily outperforms glutaraldehyde in cold-temperature wells and is exceptionally compatible with complex anionic friction reducers ('slickwater'). Unlike chlorine, PAA will not prematurely cross-link or break the rheology of the polymer gels.

    H₂S Scavenging & Scale Removal

    Aggressively oxidizes highly toxic 'sour gas' (hydrogen sulfide). PAA specifically targets and solubilizes iron sulfide (FeS) scale—a notorious instigator of under-deposit corrosion. PAA oxidizes insoluble FeS into highly soluble iron sulfate, instantly dissolving blockages and restoring pipeline flow rates.

    Oxidative Desulfurization (ODS)

    Converts sterically hindered, non-polar sulfur compounds into highly polar sulfones (at 50°C–80°C). This enables highly efficient liquid extraction, helping refineries produce ultra-low-sulfur diesel at purity levels exceeding 98%.
