To meet the demand for petrochemical industry, heavier sources such as heavy oil and bitumen are being utilized. Bitumens, a complex hydrocarbon made up of a long chain of molecules, are found in oil sand. It is estimated that 830 billion barrels of oil are located in the oil sand in Alberta, Canada. This paper will review briefly (1) the basic concept of oil sand, bitumen, and heavy oil, (2) methods how to extract oil from oil sand, (3) methods how to upgrade to synthetic crude oil, and (4) economic evaluation of technology. Key words: Oil Sand, Bitumen, Heavy Oil, Upgrading, Synthetic Crude Oil 1. jm (oil sand) im?[1] mp ool Œ (bitumen), (quartz sand), rš(clay), p p r p q o l p pp, 75~85%p v(, rš, ), 3~5%p 1~18%p Œ p p lr p. mp p Moh s 7.4 r p [1]. mp p e p, Œ p Fig. 1l m p o l p l(encapsulated), d p. qll q l p Œ p r, l rr p, rp p n l r l p l rr (refinery) v p e k. p Œ p vll 1~18% o q l p, 6% p Œ p o mp } l r p s, 12%p p Œ p o mp r p p k r p. } mp 2 Šl 1 (159 )p oo To whom correspondence should be addressed. chulwee@krict.re.kr (SCO, synthetic crude oil) p. p Œ p }ll r p ˆ p ( ml p r 1 cp, p r 3,000 cp, Š Š ƒ~p r 50,000 cp kp Œ p r 5,000,000 cp r ) API p 8~14 o ( p n k 10 o )p, rp ˆ 83.1%, 10.1%, 1.17%, v 0.56%, 5.14% pn p ˆ,,, ~, p p lr pl, ˆ p p rp n p p vp.
