This work investigated different acid catalysts and olefinic alkylating agents for the alkylation of an industrial asphaltenes feed. The working hypothesis was that alkylation would change the solubility parameter and increase the H/C ratio of ...

Stability and demulsification of emulsions stabilized by asphaltenes or resins
Experimental data are presented to show the influence of asphaltenes and resins on the stability and demulsification of emulsions. It was found that emulsion stability was related to the concentrations of the asphaltene and resin in the crude oil, and ...

A dual‐phase flash Joule heating strategy converts pre‐pyrolyzed biomass into structurally tunable carbon materials from waste feedstocks. By decoupling current‐driven thermodynamic input and duration‐dependent kinetic relaxation, the process maps the transition from amorphous carbon to few‐layer turbostratic graphene and turbostratic nanographite ...

International audienceAsphaltenes are the polar macromolecules with complex structures in oils, usually existing as aggregates. Inside the macromolecular structures of asphaltenes, some other fractions can be adsorbed/occluded, and the occluded compounds

Characterisation of an algerian asphaltene by 1H and 13C CPMAS NMR, DEPT and ESI mass spectroscopy
Quantitative liquid 1H and solid 13C CPMAS NMR spectroscopy were used in combination with qualitative DEPT (Distortionless Enhancement by Polarization Transfer) and liquid 13C NMR to investigate the molecular structural parameters of an Algerian ...

Hydrogen donor‐assisted visbreaking of Canadian oil sands bitumen
Abstract High‐viscosity Canadian oil sands bitumen requires processing for efficient transportation and refining. Partial upgrading technologies, primarily based on thermal processing, can effectively reduce, or even eliminate, the use of costly diluent, increase bitumen quality and market value, potentially decrease greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and

Demulsifying agent simplified model for offshore oil wells
Abstract This article addresses key challenges in offshore petroleum production caused by multiphase flow instabilities, such as slug flow and emulsion formation. Traditionally, severe slugging is mitigated by increasing wellhead backpressure through partial choke valve closure. In this context, a simplified dynamic model—the fast offshore wells model (

Asphaltenes are shown to be amphoteric, containing acidic and basic species that can ionize at low and high pH respectively when they come in contact with water.
