Developing new chemical–rheological models and chemical–durability indices of bitumen [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Significant correlation among chemical properties, rheological characteristics and durability of bitumen is very important in evaluating and modifying bitumen. However, a number of previous studies found inconsistent correlation.

Carbon‐Supported Dual‐Nickel Atom Catalysts With Stabilized Ni─N3 Active Sites for Efficient CO2 Electroreduction

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
Dual‐nickel atom catalysts (Ni‐DACs) are developed to stabilize unsaturated Ni─N3 atomic sites by constructing N3Ni─NiN3 dual‐atom structures from coal. Benefiting from the modulated electronic structure that optimizes intermediate adsorption, Ni‐DACs outperform Ni‐SACs in CO2 electroreduction, achieving a max FECO of 98.6% at −0.8 V vs RHE and a TOF ...

Learning hydrocracking reaction dynamics via neural ODEs: A data‐driven, gradient‐interpretable lumped modelling framework

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates the application of neural ordinary differential equations (neural ODEs) for learning hydrocracking reaction kinetics directly from data, achieving robust predictions under noise and sparsity while preserving mechanistic interpretability through gradient‐based analysis of temperature‐ and concentration‐dependent reaction rates ...

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

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
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,

Role of Caustic Addition in Bitumen-Clay Interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Coating of bitumen by clays, known as slime coating, is detrimental to bitumen recovery from oil sands using the warm slurry extn. process. Sodium hydroxide (caustic) is added to the extn.
