Application of nanoparticles for asphaltenes adsorption and oxidation: A critical review of challenges and recent progress

, 2020
Nanoparticles (NPs) have been recently recognized as effective asphaltenes adsorbents and deposition deterrents. The objective of this work is to provide a critical review and highlight the limitations of literature findings on NP use for asphaltenes ...

Asphaltenes: Separations, structural analysis and applications

Journal of Energy Chemistry, 2019
Asphaltenes, complex aromatic compounds from various carbonaceous sources, could be obtained by solvent dissolution, filtration and adsorption. It was difficult to clarify the molecular structures and chemical properties of asphaltene due to its ...

Polar asphaltenes facilitate the flow improving performance of polyethylene-vinyl acetate

, 2020
Herein, four asphaltenes in distinguished polarities were first fractionated from heavy crude oil by the solvent-precipitation method (that is, C5I asphaltenes) and characterized, and the effects of asphaltenes on the polyethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) PPD'

Asphaltene Cake Properties

Energy & Fuels, 2008
One of the major problems encountered during the exploitation of the oil reservoir is the deposition of asphaltene in the porous rock near the wellbore. The crude oil asphaltene considerably reduces the rock permeability and, consequently, the oil production.

The Asphaltenes

Annual Review of Analytical Chemistry, 2011
Asphaltenes, the most aromatic of the heaviest components of crude oil, are critical to all aspects of petroleum utilization, including reservoir characterization, production, transportation, refining, upgrading, paving, and coating materials. The asphaltenes, which are solid, have or impart crucial and often deleterious attributes in fluids such as ...

Synergistic effect of asphaltenes and octadecyl acrylate-maleic anhydride copolymers modified by aromatic pendants on the flow behavior of model waxy oils

, 2020
Asphaltenes in waxy crude oils greatly influence the performance of polymeric pour point depressants (PPDs), and the relevant mechanism needs to be further discovered. In this article, polyoctadecylacrylate (POA), polyoctadecyl-acrylate-maleic anhydride (

Synergetic effect of resins and asphaltenes on water/oil interfacial properties and emulsion stability

Fuel, 2019
It is widely concerned that the adsorbed natural surface-active components at the interface between crude oil and produced water form a protective layer to prevent emulsion from instability.

Novel Fe3O4 based superhydrophilic core-shell microspheres for breaking asphaltenes-stabilized water-in-oil emulsion

Chemical Engineering Journal, 2019
Stabilization and destabilization of emulsions play an important role in a wide range of engineering and environmental processes (e.g., oil-water separation, waste water treatment).

NMR Spectroscopy Analysis of Asphaltenes

Energy & Fuels, 2019
In crude oil production and processing, asphaltene aggregation followed by precipitation is a major problem for the oil industry as it causes deactivation of catalysts, blocking pipelines, and deposition on the internal surface of the reservoirs, etc ...

Resins and Asphaltenes of Light and Heavy Oils: Their Composition and Structure

Energy & Fuels, 2019
The complex of physicochemical methods of analysis (elemental analysis, cryoscopy in benzene, IR and ¹H NMR spectroscopies, structural group analysis, gas chromatography–mass spectrometry, and selective chemical cleavage of sulfide and ether bonds) is ...
