Abstract: Abstract Solvent-aided bitumen recovery processes are relatively new approaches to reduce the negative environmental impacts and production costs of steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD). Thermo-physical properties of these systems such as density, viscosity, phase partitioning… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Utilization of butane as a solvent in solvent-aided recovery of bitumen has shown to be promising. In these recovery processes, hot butane or butane and steam mixture is injected into subsurface bitumen reservoirs to… read more here.
