1 Process for separating high viscosity bitumen from tar sands1984-12-04separating bitumen from tar sand; high viscosity bitumen; tar sand; bitumen recovery; patentA novel process for separating high viscosity bitumen from tar sand. The process includes grinding the tar sand to obtain phase disengagement of the bitumen phase from the sand phase and thereafter using flotation techniques to obtain phase separation of the bitumen phase from the sand phase. Phase ...
2 Process for recovering products from tar sand1983-10-11physical separation process; thermal fluidized bed process; tar sands; patentA combination physical separation process and thermal fluidized bed process for recovering products from tar sands. The process includes initially separating a portion of the sand from the tar sand through a physical separation process, yielding a bitumen-rich concentrate. The bitumen-rich concentra...
3 Bitumen recovery from tar sands1984-09-11Patent; Bitumen recovery; Tar sands; Kerosene; Flotation cell; BitumenA process for recovering bitumen from tar sands wherein the tar sands are pretreated with a diluent, such as kerosene in the preferred embodiment, to lower the viscosity of the bitumen such that it is in the range of about 5 to about 20 poise at the digestion temperature. The tar sands are then dige...
