The high degree of variability of oil sands ores can be attributed to a mixture of different geological end members, i.e., estuarine sand, estuarine clay, marine sand and marine clay. This study focused on the mineralogy, especially of clay minerals, and toluene insoluble organic matter, referred...

Role of kerogen on the Solvent Retention and Sedimentation of Oil Sands in Non-Aqueous Bitumen Extraction
DownloadFall 2020
One of the most problematic challenges of current hot water oil sands extraction methods is tailings ponds and the resulting environmental liability and risk. As a new method of extraction, non-aqueous extraction has the potential to replace the current hot-water extraction technology and...
