Fall 2016
Asphaltenes are the heaviest component in crude oil and bitumen. The molecular interactions and interfacial behaviours of asphaltenes are closely related to many challenging issues in oil production, which are believed to play an important role in stabilizing water-in-oil (W/O) and oil-in-water...

Probing the Interaction Mechanisms among Asphaltenes, Fine Solids, Water-Oil Emulsions and Pipeline Surfaces in Oil Sands Production
DownloadSpring 2020
Fouling problem has been one of the most challenging problems in oil industries. Asphaltenes, fine solids, and water-oil emulsions have been regarded as the major components in the fouling phenomena during oil production. Investigating the interactions between foulants (e.g., asphaltenes, fine...
