In-situ combustion is a thermal recovery method applicable to heavy oil locations. The thermal energy released by partial burning ofthe crude oil is significant in the displacement of the remaining oil. During an underground combustion process, exothermic oxidation reactions involving oxygen and hyd
The effects of catalyst particle size on the hydrocracking reactions of Athabasca bitumen were studied in the presence ofCoO-MoO,/Al,O, catalyst. Six different catalyst particle sizes, namely 3.2,1.7, 1.18,0.6,0.3 and co.15 mm were employed in the hydrocracking reactions. Reducing the catalyst size
