Book excerpt: The Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Arkansas, in association with Diversified Petroleum Recovery, Inc. (DPR) of Little Rock, Arkansas, has been developing a solvent extraction process for the recovery of bitumen from tar sands for the past five years. The unique feature of the process is that the bitumen is recovered from the solvent by contacting with a co-solvent, which causes the bitumen to precipitate. The overall purpose of this project is to study both the technical and economic feasibility of applying this technology for recovery of bitumen from tar sands by (1) investigating the socioeconmic factors which affect (a) plant siting and (b) the market value of recovered bitumen; (2) operating a process demonstration unit at the rate of 1 lb/hr recovered bitumen while producing clean sand and recyclable solvents; and (3) determine the economic conditions which will make a bitumen recovery project economical. DPR has analyzed the historical trends of domestic production, consumption, discoveries and reserves of crude oil. They have started an investigation of the volatility in the price of crude oil and of gasoline prices and of the differential between gasoline and crude oil. DPR continues to analyze the geographical movement and demand for asphalt products. Utah does not appear economically attractive as a site for a bitumen from tar sands asphalt plant. Oklahoma sites are now being studied. This report also contains the quarterly progress report from a University of Nevada study to determine bitumen composition, oxygen uptake rates, and viscosities of Alabama and Utah bitumens. Both reports have been indexed separately for inclusion on the data base.

This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of the projects is to conclude basic research on fatty acid solvent extraction for bitumens from southern tar sands. This report consist of the following four parts: (1) Design and economic analysis of a process for producing bitumen from tar sand by toluene extraction and solvent evaporation; (2) Documentation of and simulation of the operation of a 1 lb/hr process demonstration unit which produced bitumen from tar sand by toluene extraction and cosolvent-induced precipitation of bitumen; (3) Design and economic analysis of a process for producing bitumen from tar sand by toluene extraction and cosolvent-induced precipitation of bitumen; and (4) Experimental investigation of a staged purge column for purging the toluene vapors from spent tar sand as it exits the sand flash dryer in the bitumen-from-tar-sand processes.
