Bhattacharya, Sujit, Arora, Nitin, Ng, Samson, Chong, Jeng Y., Kresta, Suzanne M., Machado, Marcio B.
Mixing conditions were explored as a possible avenue for improvement of demulsifier performance in solvent diluted bitumen de-watering process. The effects of demulsifier bulk concentration, demulsifier injection concentration and mixing energy on water and solids removal from the oil phase were...

The impact of mixing on diluted bitumen de-watering is studied in two stages using a fractional factorial design of experiments. The first stage evaluates the relative effects of bulk demulsifier dosage, local maximum energy dissipation, and mixing time. The second stage of experiments evaluates...
