Visbreaker and straight-run bitumens with the same commercial characteristics were produced in a refinery from four topping residues, in order to study the influence of the visbreaking process on the behaviour of bitumens. Besides the conventional standard tests, road tests and differential scanning

Jet reactors are characterized by their compactness, high shear and high interfacial areas per unit volume. Atomization of the liquid feed and/or turbulent gas-liquid mass transfer forms the basis of the Jet reactor technology. A mathematical model of visbreaking of Athabasca bitumen in such a react
A simple and quick test method was developed to distinguish thermally cracked materials, especially visbreaker residues and bitumens, from untracked products, such as straight-run distillation bitumens and residues. The method is based on the reactivity of thermal residues and bitumens with phosphor
Oxidation of a bitumen with air or oxygen in the presence of a diluent significantly increases the asphaltene content and noticeably reduces the asphaltene solubility. It is suggested that one of the main factors influencing the solubility of the asphaltenes, aside from possible polymerization of as
