✦ Synopsis
The leaching behavior of two different residual oils is investigated with 24 organic solvents including alkanes, aromatics, esters, ethers, ketones, alcohols and nitrogen compounds. A 2g portion of sample oil is shaken with 20 ml of the organic solvent. The leaching of the organic matrix of the oil is determined by weighing the dissolved organic matrix after removal of solvent. The leaching of vanadium, iron and nickel was determined by flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry after ashing of the dissolved fraction. The leaching of those metals depends strongly on the solvent used; for example, vanadium is almost completely leached into toluene, but only slightly into methanol. The leaching of iron is poor compared with that of vanadium or nickel. In most solvents, leaching of those metal-containing species is poorer than that of organic material. Exceptionally, NJ-dimethylformamide is more efficient in leaching vanadium species than organic material.
