Abstract EN
Asphaltene precipitation is one of the most common problems in both oil recovery and refinery processes.
Its deposition causes many problems mainly because of the fuzzy nature of asphaltene and the large number of parameters affecting precipitation.
Unfortunately there is not a predictive technique for screening it.
Refractive index (RI) was used as a stability test for asphaltene which makes a quantitative judgment for asphaltene stability.
In our study, we first represent a novel correlation between SARA fractions and density and then demonstrate the relation between density and RI; second we developed a relation for SARA and RI, by utilizing RI to investigate the stability of asphaltene.
