NMR Fingerprinting

Source: National Centre for Upgrading Technology
NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) spectroscopy is an analytical technique that can quantitatively evaluate the carbon functional group composition (referred to as the NMR fingerprint) of complex mixtures such as heavy oil and bitumen
Features:
  • Potential applications include assessment of the quality of product generated using new process technologies
  • Determination of the net chemistry occuring during processing
  • Measurement of residual solvent contamination in oil after extraction
NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) spectroscopy is an analytical technique that can quantitatively evaluate the carbon functional group composition (referred to as the NMR fingerprint) of complex mixtures such as heavy oil and bitumen. Unlike gas chromatographic techniques, NMR can be used to analyze whole crudes and total liquid products, including residue and asphaltenes.
