Use of a solvent in the oxidative desulfurization of bitumen via autoxidation; effects on viscosity and oxidation
DownloadSpring 2014
This work describes the effect that including a solvent in the reaction media of the autoxidation of Cold Lake bitumen has on the viscosity and also on the oxidation degree reached. The comparison of viscosity was performed both in the basis of equal residence time and equal oxygen conversion...

Fall 2012
The kinetics of vapor phase cracking of bitumen derived heavy gas oil and the quality of liquid products were investigated at temperatures of 600-700 °C. Fixed and condensed gases were analyzed by gas chromatography. The quality of liquid products was characterized using simulated distillation,...

Wave Speed Measurements of Grosmont Formation Carbonates: Implications for Time-Lapse Seismic Monitoring
DownloadFall 2019
The Grosmont Formation is a Devonian-aged carbonate platform complex that is estimated to hold over 64.5 billion m3 (406 billion bbl) of bitumen in place, accounting for a significant portion of Canada’s total hydrocarbon reserves. Despite this, the Grosmont formation has largely been undeveloped...

The addition of coarse particles to a flocculating fine particle slurry increases the Bingham yield stress of the resulting mixture, which can drastically alter the laminar-to-turbulent transition velocity. The objective of this study is to quantify the effect of coarse particle size and volume...
