Production of asphalt from activated crude oil residues
Preparation is one method of increasing the efficiency, of crude oil feedstock refining processes. In this stage, the feedstock can be activated by regulating the balance of intermolecular interaction,forces within a crude oil disperse system by different methods: external fields (electric, magnetic); mechanical; using different kinds of additives, primarily those with surface-active properties.
