Thermal Treatment of Bitumen Froth at 400 °C: Impact of Water and Minerals on Bitumen Properties and Reaction Chemistry
DownloadFall 2024
The production of oilsands bitumen from mining operations requires its recovery from the mineral matter through a hot water extraction process, which generates a bitumen froth comprising about 60 wt% bitumen, 30 wt% water, and 10 wt% mineral solids. The challenging separation of water and solids...

Thermally Sprayed Coatings as Resistive Heating Systems for Wind Turbine Blades and Airfoils
DownloadSpring 2023
Accumulation of ice on the surface of wind turbine blades and aircraft wings in cold environments causes serious issues such as decrease in performance and efficiency. Ice accretion alters the geometrical profile and aerodynamic performance of the surface and increases the weight of the original...
