Bitumen on Water: Charred Hay as a PFD (Petroleum Flotation Device)
Global demand for petroleum keeps increasing while traditional supplies decline. One alternative to the use of conventional crude oils is the utilization of Canadian bitumen. Raw bitumen is a dense, viscous, semi-liquid that is diluted with lighter crude oil to permit its transport through pipelines to terminals where it can then be shipped to global markets. When spilled, it naturally weathers...
متن کاملSeparation of Bitumen from Utah Tar Sands by a Hot Water Digestion- Flotation Technique
To facilitate the efficient handling of large volumes ofinformation generated by logging exploration drill cores, acomputer data bank system (GEOBANK) has been developed tostore and retrieve the normally difficult to handle geologicinformation as well as the physical testing data. The data banksystematized the logging of drill core by first developing astandard list of a...

15 صفحه اولExperimental Assessment of a Fixed On-Shore Oscillating Water Column Device: Case Study on Oman Sea
Ocean wave is one of the renewable energy resources that these days various devices are used to extract its energy. Oscillating Water Column (OWC) installed on the shore is one of the wave energy absorption systems which has received attention due to its simple structure. Investigation of the pneumatic power is of great importance in such systems as the conversion of wave energy to pneumatic en...
