Herein, almost all amino acids hydrate-based additives are critically reviewed. The hydrate inhibition/promotion effect of each amino acid and factors that affect their performance on gas hydrate formation are discussed. Furthermore, amino acids hydrate inhibition/promotional mechanism and modelling studies are reviewed. Detailed comparison between amino acids and convention hydrate additives alongside future directions towards amino acids hydrate-based technology commercialization are also discussed. The findings presented in this work are relevant for future amino acids breakthrough research in hydrate-based technologies. © 2019 Elsevier B.V. date: 2019 publisher: Elsevier B.V. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85061336478&doi=10.1016%2fj.jngse.2019.01.020&partnerID=40&md5=ed5349e42654a753b346cdaf27aa8da5 id_number: 10.1016/j.jngse.2019.01.020 full_text_status: none publication: Journal of Natural Gas Science and Engineering volume: 64 pagerange: 52-71 refereed: TRUE issn: 18755100 citation: Bavoh, C.B. and Lal, B. and Osei, H. and Sabil, K.M. and Mukhtar, H.
