Abstract: A composition and method for the control of corrosion and foam in acrylonitrile plants is disclosed. The composition generally consists of a polypropylene glycol, a glyoxalidine salt of a carboxylic acid and an ethylene glycol monoalkylether. The composition when fed into absorbers, strippers, and quench towers of acrylonitrile plants provides excellent corrosion inhibiting and anti-foam properties.
