In recent years, development of other forms of hydrate inhibitors have been developed, like Kinetic Hydrate Inhibitors (which by far slow the rate of hydrate formation) and anti-agglomerates, which do not prevent hydrates forming, but do prevent them sticking together to block equipment.
En anos recentes, desenvolvéronse outros tipos de inhibidores de hidratos, como os inhibidores de hidratos cinéticos (que diminúen moito a velocidade de formación de hidratos) e os antiaglomerantes, que non impiden a formación de hidratos, pero impiden que se unan uns a outros e bloqueen o equipamento.
