Abstract

- Conversion of bitumen in a supercritical water flow at 400-700 °C, 30 MPa is studied.
- A maximum yield of oils is obtained at 400-500 °C.
- Participation of H2O molecules in redox reactions results in the high yields of H2, CH4, and CO2.
- Deasphalting and desulfurization of bitumen occur at SCW conversion.
