The design of a reduced diameter Pebble Bed Modular Reactor for reactor pressure vessel transport by railcar
… only accessible by railway, such as those in the Canadian Oil Sands at which the PBMR would be utilized for oil extraction processes. Therefore, a study was conducted to determine the feasibility of a Pebble Bed Modular Reactor design operating at 250 MWth with a core restricted to fitting inside …

Solid-liquid-liquid Wettability and its role on Targeted Emulsified Solvent Injection (TESI)
… the third largest world reserves of crude oil, mostly in the forms of heavy oil or bitumen in the oil sands. However, 80% are too deep to be mined, requiring in-situ extraction methods. This work involved the design of a chemical enhanced oil recovery (EOR) approach, referred to as Targeted …
