... predictions may be obtained for any light solvent if the above information is supplemented with even relatively inexpensive laboratory data taken with a lower-volatility solvent such as toluene. oil sand bitumen steam-solvent combination solvent concentration initial slope carbon dioxide viscosity...

... at higher temperatures. The proposed methodology to correlate k -value data was applied on the experimental data of k -value of methane, propane, butane and carbon dioxide. Figure 2 shows the k -value of methane in Athabasca bitumen versus inverse of absolute temperature. This figure shows a linear...

... The aldehyde formed subsequently, after rearrangement of the unsaturated alcohol, then yields carbon monoxide, which, by way of the water gas shift reaction (WGSR) forms hydrogen and carbon dioxide. CO + H 2 O ↔ CO 2 + H 2 The reaction sequence seems...

.../water displacements experiments. A developed fully implicit three-phase simulator mimics three-phase displacement experiments in the form of gas (carbon dioxide and methane) injection into a consolidated Berea core saturated with heavy oil (1174cP at 28°C) and water. Three-phase relative permeability...

... with rocket engine. As is shown in figure 1 , fuel (diesel or nature gas) and compressed air is injected into combustion chamber where fuel combusts and water is heated and vaporizes. After combustion of fuel, flue gas, containing carbon dioxide and nitrogen, mixes with steam at the outlet of combustion...

... Svrcek and Mehrotra (1982 ) modified the experimental setup of Jacobs (1980 ) for viscosity measurements, to enable sampling of the saturated bitumen to determine the solubility of carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrogen in the saturated bitumen samples. The experimental solubility, viscosity...

..." of the mixture. Fluid Specific Parameters The fluid specific parameters of the EF model for pure solvents including ethane, propane, n- butane, n-pentane. n-heptane and carbon dioxide were taken from Yarranton and Satyro (2009) and Motahhari et al. (2011a), respectively and are listed in Table 1...

... simulations in order to more accurately represent the physics of gas behavior inside the SAGD chamber. Methane, carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulphide are considered. It is observed from the numerical simulation results that the production of a gas in SAGD is directly proportional to the solubility of that gas...
