Synopsis: This book discusses the role of amino acids as alternative green additives in the geoenergy and related carbon sequestration industry. It focuses on the role of amino acids in clay swelling inhibition, drilling fluid technology, flow assurance, enhanced oil recovery, gas treatment, geo-carbon separation and sequestration. Amino acids' toxicity, biodegradability, and their properties' effect on managing the various geoenergy operational chemical-related mechanisms are also discussed.Furthermore, the main challenges involved in the use of amino acids in the geoenergy industries are discussed. Discusses mechanisms of relevant amino acids and their possible commercialization in the oil and gas industry Addresses properties of amino acids that promises their use in green oil and gas chemistry Provides knowledge of the use of amino acids in several aspects of the geoenergy industry Clarifies the benefits and drawbacks of using amino acids in the oil and gas industry Provides real-world case studies on the use of amino acids in the oil and gas industry This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in chemical and petroleum engineering, and geology.
