Please, can anyone help me by letting me know of ANY technologies, whether it be existing, new or simply basic research, which are involved in the extraction of heavy crude oils from reservoirs?
Please, any help will be greatly appreciated no matter how frivolous.
Thanks, people.
Thanks. Sorry for the whole thread thing. I'm new to this thing, so I'm not good at using it properly yet. I just thought that you probably would not look at the old threads after having answered to them, regardless of the increase in number of replies. Will continue in existing threads in the...
You know what? Lemme break it down to you as best as I can without giving away too much confidential information. See if I can give you a slightly better picture of what is going on.
Naphtha, the proposed carrier fluid, will be passed to a heat exchanger where it will be heated to about...
Thanks for your reply. The heat derived is to be used in lowering the viscosity of the main process subject. CaO has been elected in the hope that it would form product Ca(OH)2 which hopefully should neutralise, in situ, any acid impurities likely to be produced as the reaction progresses.

Hello.
You're just so helpful, I think I'm going to just stick with forwarding my queries straight to you! Thanks a lot.
I just have one thing to ask: You proposed using nitrogen gas. However, we feel it's too cold, especially as the solid is being used in a reaction to produce heat in situ in...
Hello People!
Please, I need help with this: Which solvent can be used to handle CaO in order to prevent it from reacting with water? I think it is some sort of oil, but I am not too sure. Please bear in mind that this is to be used on a large scale and so it would help if it were rather cheap...
kenvlach, the application is confidential, but I can tell you that I wish to generate an enormous amount of heat, albeit via as cheap a reaction as possible. Thank you for your reply, as it further helps me in my investigation. Any ideas you may have along these lines would be equally helpful...
Please, can anyone give me the actual value of the amount of heat given off (in KJ/mol) when Sodium Hydride reacts with water? And the stoichiometry of the reaction?
Could I, please, get some help with how naphthenic acid can be neutralised? It has been proposed in my study that calcium hydroxide could be used to achieve this. Is this feasible? If so, what is the stoichiometry of the reaction and how cost effective is it?
I am working on a study, and I would like to know more about the reactions of naphthenic acid. It has been proposed to neutralise it using calcium hydroxide. Is this feasible? If so, what is the stoichiometry of the reaction? How efficient is this?
