Dependences of SMA mixture and its bituminous binder properties on bitumen batching system, mixing time and temperature on asphalt mixing plant

Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2013
Bitumen holds the aggregate in hot mix asphalt (HMA). Without asphalt binder, HMA would simply be crushed stone or gravel. A bitumen batching system (BBS) is comprised of bitumen storage, transportation, weighing and discharge equipment in an asphalt ...

Dynamic accelerated solvent extraction for faster oil sands oil, water, and solids determination and solids cleaning

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 4, Page 2020-2032, April 2026.
25 g of oil sands extracted by dynamic accelerated solvent extraction, yielding 177 mL of bitumen–toluene extract and clean dried solids in approximately 12 min. Abstract Determining the oil, water, and solids (OWS) contents of oil sand is essential to many aspects of the oil sands industry including mine planning, optimization of extraction processes,

Investigation of microalgal tolerance and growth in simulated tailings pond water containing naphthenic acids

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 4, Page 1877-1888, April 2026.
Abstract Oil sands tailings ponds, such as those in northeastern Alberta, present environmental challenges due to slow sedimentation, water entrapment, and toxic naphthenic acids (NAs), which hinder water reclamation. This study assessed the tolerance and biodegradation potential of Chlorella vulgaris (C.

Supercritical water deasphalting and desulphurization of heavy fuel oil with comprehensive molecular‐level analysis and techno‐economic analysis

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 4, Page 1727-1742, April 2026.
Supercritical water deasphalting. Abstract The removal of sulphur from heavy fuel oil (HFO) is essential to address environmental concerns and comply with the stringent regulations imposed by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) in 2020. Previously, the acceptable limit for sulphur was 3.5 wt.%, but it was recently changed to 0.5 wt.%.

Geochemical and Seismic Constraints on the Role of Mud Diapirs in Petroleum Migration and Accumulation in the Recôncavo Basin, NE Brazil

Journal of Petroleum Geology, Volume 49, Issue 2, Page 433-447, April 2026.
ABSTRACT In the Recôncavo Basin, Northeast of Brazil, mud diapirs have been reported for decades, but their role within the basin's petroleum system remains poorly constrained. Here, we combine 2D seismic interpretation, field observations, and organic geochemical analyses of rocks and oil seeps to investigate the relationship between diapirism and ...

The Material and Textual Value of Manuscript and Print Binding Waste☆

Renaissance Studies, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 166-189, April 2026.
Abstract In 2019, the Foundation of Christ's Hospital at Lincoln made a bequest of early printed books to the Bodleian Library. The collection is rich in sixteenth‐century tooled bindings, many of which preserve manuscript and printed waste in the form of pastedowns, endleaves and endleaf guards.
