Enhanced accumulation of bitumen residue in a highly concentrated tailings flow by microbubbles from in-situ catalytic decomposition of hydrogen peroxide
Kaiyu Zhou, Somasekhara Goud Sontti, Joe Zhou +1
The massive volume of oil sands tailings has been one of the most challenging environmental issues. In this work, we experimentally explore a simple and effective approach to bitum…
Effects of Coal Particles on Microbubble-Enhanced Bitumen Separation in the Concentrated Slurry Flow of Oil Sands Tailings
Yiyi Huo, Mohammadhossein Golchin, Kaiyu Zhou +3
Our study investigates the segregation of bitumen residues within the transport pipeline before disposal in the presence of coal particles in carriers and microbubbles. Coal partic…
Computational fluid dynamics investigation of bitumen residues in oil sands tailings transport in an industrial horizontal pipe
Somasekhara Goud Sontti, Mohsen Sadeghi, Kaiyu Zhou +2
Bitumen residues in the oil sand tailings can be a threat to the environment that separating them from tailings before disposal is crucial. However, low bitumen concentration in th…
