A role of humic matter and ore oxidation in rheology of oil sand slurries and in bitumen extraction
Eight oil sands ores were tested in order to quantify the levels of humic acids in these samples through the alkali extraction test originally developed to determine the oxidation of bituminous metallurgical coals. The test gives a concentration of humic acids released from ores, which in combinatio...
