Supercritical fluid extraction of bitumen free solids separated from Athabasca oil sand feed and hot water process tailings pond sludge

Journal Article Kotlyar, L.S. ; Sparks, B.D. ; Woods, J.R. ; ... - Fuel Science and Technology International; (USA)

The presence of strongly bound organic matter (SOM), in association with certain solids fractions, causes serious problems in the processability of Athabasca oil sands as well as in the settling and compaction of hot water process tailing pond sludge. It has been demonstrated that a substantial amount of this SOM can be separated from oil sands feed and sludge solids, after removal of bitumen by toluene, using a supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) method. The extracted material is soluble in common organic solvents which allows a direct comparison, between the SOM separated from oil sands and sludges, from the point ofmore »« less

Fundamentals of mechanical upgrading of Athabasca oil sands: mechanisms of sand and bitumen separation. [Plate mill]

Journal Article McKay, A.M. ; Phillips, C.R. - Sep. Sci. Technol.; (United States)

Sand and bitumen were separated mechanically from Athabasca oil sands using cold water in a plate mill. Sand extraction was found to be a function of the product of rotational frequency, oil sands charge weight, and the inverse fourth power of the distance between the rotating plate and the bottom of the mill. Ranges of testing were 20 to 150 rpm, 10 to 100 g, and 1.3 to 27 mm for rotational frequency, oil sand charge, and clearance, respectively. Sand extractions were primarily the result of particle-vessel collisions resulting in brittle failure of the bitumen layer. Extractions reached a limitmore »« less

Operating cost parameters in solvent extraction of bitumen from oil sand mineral deposits

Journal Article Kenchington, J.M. ; Phillips, C.R. - Energy Sources (N.Y.); (United States)

Present processing technology for mined oil sands is based on the hot water extraction process in the only operating plants to date (processing the Athabasca oil sands in Canada). Alternative technologies are of interest, particularly in view of the environmental problems associated with the aqueous effluents of the existing process. As an example of such alternative processes, a solvent extraction flow sheet for the recovery of bitumen from Athabasca oil sands is developed and used as a basis for an economic sensitivity analysis of operating costs and a comparison of the relative significance of process parameters, such as solvent type,more »« less
