Abstract
⺠Extraction of bitumen into supercritical water attenuated coke formation. ⺠A continuous hydrothermal extraction method with subcritical water was employed. ⺠Simultaneous upgrading of bitumen and suppression of coke formation was possible. ⺠We propose that asphaltene core can work as coke precursor as well as good solvent.
