Model molecules mimicking asphaltenes
J Sjöblom, S Simon, Z Xu - Advances in colloid and interface science, 2015 - Elsevier
Asphalthenes are typically defined as the fraction of petroleum insoluble in n-alkanes
(typically heptane, but also hexane or pentane) but soluble in toluene. This fraction causes …

Effect of nanoparticles/nanofluids on the rheology of heavy crude oil and its mobility on porous media at reservoir conditions
In this work, we evaluate the effect of nanoparticles and nanofluids as viscosity reducers for
heavy crude oil (HO). The effect of alumina, silica and acidic silica nanoparticles was …

Nanoparticles for inhibition of asphaltenes damage: adsorption study and displacement test on porous media
The deposition of asphaltenes is one of the most difficult problems to overcome in oil
production and processing. The presence of asphaltenes in crude oil, and consequently, the …

Experimental and theoretical study of viscosity reduction in heavy crude oils by addition of nanoparticles
Heavy and extra-heavy oils generally exhibit high viscosity, which is detrimental to their
production, transport, and refining. The oil and gas industry has thoroughly investigated the …

Fractionation of asphaltenes in understanding their role in petroleum emulsion stability and fouling
SARA fractionation separates crude oil into fractions of saturates (S), aromatics (A), resins
(R), and asphaltenes (A) based on the differences in their polarizability and polarity. Defined …

Adsorption of asphaltenes from toluene on mineral surface
AW Marczewski, M Szymula - Colloids and Surfaces A: Physicochemical …, 2002 - Elsevier
Undesirable adsorption of asphaltenes on rock minerals was studied. Asphaltenes are an
important component of crude oil, being also natural surfactant stabilising water/crude oil …
