Abstract
Solvent-aided dilution processes are often employed to recover bitumen by reducing its viscosity. In this study, methanol, toluene, and xylene were investigated as potential hydrocarbon solvents fo...
期刊介绍:
The international journal of Petroleum Science and Technology publishes original, high-quality peer-reviewed research and review articles that explore:
-The fundamental science of fluid-fluid and rock-fluids interactions and multi-phase interfacial and transport phenomena through porous media related to advanced petroleum recovery processes,
-The application of novel concepts and processes for enhancing recovery of subsurface energy resources in a carbon-sensitive manner,
-Case studies of scaling up the laboratory research findings to field pilots and field-wide applications.
-Other salient technological challenges facing the petroleum industry.
