Design, Synthesis, Characterization of a new pH-Responsive Copolymer and its Application in Oil Sands Tailings Treatment
DownloadSpring 2015
This research aims at treating mature fine tailings (MFT) with a novel pH-responsive copolymer poly (N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate-co-acrylamide-co-acrylic acid) p(DMAEMA-co-AM-co-AA). Compared with conventional polyacrylamide (PAM), the conformation and property of this novel copolymer can...

DESULFURIZATION OF OXIDIZED BITUMEN USING MICROORGANISMS THROUGH PROCESS-BASED DIRECTED EVOLUTION
DownloadSpring 2014
Many Rhodococcus species are capable of utilizing the 4S biodesulfurization pathway to convert dibenzothiophene (DBT) to 2-hydroxybiphenyl (2-HBP) and sulfite, the latter of which is partially incorporated into cell biomass. The first steps of the 4S pathway involve the oxidation of DBT into...

The tendency of asphaltenes to aggregate in crude oil is observed at SATP and is enhanced at elevated temperatures. At these conditions, asphaltenes aggregation is a problem as it will ultimately lead to mesophase formation, a precursor of coke, known for causing plugging and fouling of...

One of heavy oils upgrading processes is hydroconversion. As it is a complex process involving many chemical reactions, the mathematical model of hydroconversion process often has more kinetic parameters than can be estimated from the data. In this thesis, a model for hydroconversion processing...
