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.

DOI: 10.3390/molecules28031512
Abstract: The previous biodiesel purification by Solvent-Aided Crystallization (SAC) using 1-butanol as assisting agent and parameters for SAC were optimized such as coolant temperature, cooling time and stirring speed. Meanwhile, 2-Methyltetrahydrofuran (2-MeTHF) was selected as an… read more here.
