1 Asphaltene rejection from bitumens via supercritical fluid extraction1993asphaltene rejection; bitumen; supercritical fluid extraction; SFE; asphaltene contentSupercritical fluid extraction (SFE) of bitumen was carried out in a continuous extractor using propane as the solvent at several temperatures and pressures. The asphaltene contents of the residual fractions in the extractor were compared to the asphaltene content of the original bitumen. Asphaltene...
2 Shale oil value enhancement research - Quarterly report: June 1 - August 31, 19931993shale oil; value enhancement; shale oil-derived productsAll tasks are on schedule, or ahead of schedule. Particular progress has been made in identifying industrial entities, commodities and specialty products of target interest for shale oil-derived products. There is clearly a major emphasis worldwide on new chemicals and shale oil-derived structures a...
3 Shale oil value enhancement research - Quarterly report: October 1 - December 31, 19931993Shale oil; value enhancement; molecular types of shale oilThe first year of this effort was focussed on the following broad objectives: -Analyze the molecular types present in shale oil (as a function of molecular weight distribution ); - Determine the behavior of these molecular types in liquid-liquid extraction; -Develop the analytical tools needed to sy...
4 Shale oil value enhancement research - Quarterly report: October 1 - December 31, 19931993shale oil; value enhancement; raw shale oil; market shale oil projectA major push was made to identify the hydrocarbon and heteroatom types present in raw shale oil. A comprehensive, qualitative picture of the <400°C material has been obtained. In addition to the expected types, e.g., pyridines, pyrroles, indoles and phenols, the presence of aliphatic carboxylic aci...
