A Study on the Adsorption and Catalytic Oxidation of Asphaltene onto Nanoparticles [PDF]
Journal of Petroleum Science and Technology, 2017 The use of nanoparticles, including metal oxide surfaces, as asphaltene adsorbents is a potential method of removing and/or upgrading asphaltenes. The adsorption of two asphaltene types, extracted from two types of Iranian crude oil, onto nanoparticles ...
