Canadian Crude Quality Technical Association - Project - Bitumen Dewatering & Volumetric Shrinkage (CLOSED)
Bitumen Dewatering & Volumetric Shrinkage (CLOSED) |
This project is developing the data to extend the API 12.3 shrinkage tables beyond the existing limits. It will test shrinkage factors for mixing a variety of diluents/condensates with bitumens ranging from 960 kg/m3 up to 1030 kg/m3. The data will be used to extend the existing correlations in API 12.3 The project is also examining alternatives for cleaning water and solids from bitumens to allow accurate measurement of bitumen density. | | |
