Abstract
⺠Bitumen was partially oxidized in supercritical water for selective CO formation. ⺠The bitumen - supercritical water - air system consisted of two phases. ⺠The CO selectivity increased and the amount of total gas tended to decrease with increasing water/oil ratio. ⺠The increase in air pressure increased the amount of CO and CO2 and decreased the CO selectivity. ⺠Temperature, water/oil ratio and air pressure were important factors to govern partial oxidation of bitumen.
