Thermal characteristics of eight crude oils and their treatment with additives were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermomicroscopy, viscometer and pour point tester. Different additives were found as more effective for different type of crude oils depending on the wax content. Crude oils showed a reduced pour point after treatment with additives. Effects of different additives were also discussed by analysing the DSC curves and thermomicroscopy result.

Thermal behavior and kinetics of crude oils at low heating rates by differential scanning calorimeter Kök, Mustafa Verşan (2012-04-01) The objective of this research was to investigate thermal behavior and kinetics of different origin crude oils in limestone matrix by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) at low heating rates. In DSC experiments, three distinct reaction regions were identified in all of the crude oil + limestone mixtures known as low temperature oxidation (LTO), fuel deposition (FD) and high temperature oxidation (HTO) respectively. Kinetic analysis of the crude oil samples was determined by different models known as AST...
DSC and rheometry investigations of crude oils Kök, Mustafa Verşan; Claudy, Pierre (1999-01-01) Thermal characteristics and rheological behaviour of eight crude oils covered a wide range of fluid composition and properties were studied by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and viscometry. Wax appearance temperatures (WAT) of crude oils were determined by DSC and viscometry. Good agreement is obtained between the results. The dynamic viscosity in the Newtonian temperature range of the crude oils (above 30 degrees C) generally obeyed a simple first-order Arrhenius type of temperature dependence. Ac...
Thermal decomposition of Tatarstan Ashal'cha heavy crude oil and its SARA fractions Varfolomeev, Mikhail A.; Galukhin, Andrey; Nurgaliev, Danis K.; Kök, Mustafa Verşan (2016-12-15) In this research, heavy crude oil from Ashal'cha field, Republic of Tatarstan, and its SARA (saturate, aromatic, resin and asphaltene) fractions were analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetry (TGA) methods. The experiments were performed at three different heating rates (10, 20, 30 degrees C/min) for DSC and at single heating rate for TGA analysis, all under the air atmosphere. In DSC experiments, two main reaction regions were detected at each heating rate known as low and hi...
Thermal Analysis of Crude oil lignite mixtures by Differential Scanning Calorimetry Kök, Mustafa Verşan (Elsevier BV, 1994-04-01) Thermal characterization of lignite, crude oils and their 10 and 20% mixtures were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (d.s.c.). The calorific value of the lignite increased in mixtures depending on the crude oil type. In pyrolysis runs, temperature ranges where distillation and visbreaking occur were identified for the crude oils studied. The effect of heating rate was also studied, and higher reaction temperatures and higher heat flow rates were observed at d.s.c. peak thermograms with incre...
Thermal analysis applications in fossil fuel science - Literature survey Kök, Mustafa Verşan (2002-01-01) In this study, instances where thermal analysis techniques ( differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetry, differential thermal analysis, etc.) have been applied for fossil fuel characterisation and kinetics are reviewed. The scientific results presented clearly showed that thermal analysis is a well-established technique used in fossil fuel research area. The literature survey showed that thermal methods were important not only theoretically but also from a practical point of view.
