Characterization of destructured heavy oil and study of asphaltenes adsorption over solid adsorbents
The presence of asphaltenes in heavy oil is related to its high viscosity which is a major constraint in heavy oil processing and transportation. Moreover, problems associated with the deposition of asphaltenes at different stages of the heavy oil refining steps increase the cost of heavy oil proces...
