Overview

Analyzing wax deposition and rheological changes in cold transportation of waxy shale oil, suggesting conditions for safe flow.

Key Points

  • The kinetic model predicts a maximum wax deposition rate of 0.23 mm/d, indicating the formation of wax in cold conditions.
  • Waxy shale oil forms needle-shaped microcrystalline wax with dimensions under 2 μm during cold transport, affecting flow safety.
  • Shear forces can disrupt congealed oil stability, improving its rheological properties for safer transportation.
  • Decreasing the initial temperature of cold transport reduces the yield stress of congealed oil, suggesting more efficient movement.
