Refining Technology
The development team successfully demonstrated a hydrophobic
cement-matrix composite through the incorporation of
0.2 wt% asphaltenes into Taiwan cement Type 1 with standard
sand and water ( " asphalted mortar " ). The advantage of the hydrophobic
cement-matrix composite is that the cement, and
by extension the concrete, becomes inherently water-resistant.
Furthermore, inherently water-resistant cement-matrix composite
is mold-preventative. In addition to causing structural
damage, molds may cause serious chronic human health issues
and negatively impact the aesthetics of buildings.
For illustrative purposes, water was applied to the surface
of cured asphalted mortar. FIG. 2 shows water droplets that remained
on the surface of the asphalted mortar and a close-up
view of a droplet, indicating the hydrophobic characteristics
of asphalted mortar. In contrast, when water was applied to a
cured mortar control group that utilized unmodified Taiwan
cement Type 1, the water was immediately absorbed and percolated
through the mortar sample.
The newly formulated asphalted mortar was subsequently
subjected to the CNS 3763-2009 test method for waterproof
agent of cement for concrete construction (TABLE 3). The results
showed that the properties of the asphalted mortar were
in compliance with CNS 3763-2009 requirements, indicating
that asphaltenes are appropriate cement waterproofing agents.
Existing waterproofing techniques by which coating materials
are adhered to the surface of concrete are susceptive to wear
and tear and weathering, and require periodic maintenance.
The utilization of asphaltenes as cement additives presents a
practical, long-term solution to enhance, supplement or even
replace existing waterproofing techniques, while capturing carbon
produced from petroleum streams.
Despite the long and established history of the petroleum
industry, scientific and technological advancements continue
to unlock valuable opportunities for stakeholders. In an actively
decarbonizing society, the role of new technology will be
increasingly significant as the industry seeks to balance profitability
with social and environmental objectives.

Turn Up Your Process Heater Performance with
New, Connected Combustion Insights
Eric Gebhard
Sales Manager
OnPoint, A Koch Engineered
Solutions Company
Fired heaters represent an area of high risk for operating companies. Global monitoring of
combustion variables is essential for maintaining basic operations and a minimum level of
safety. In this webinar we will discuss a new platform which transforms the way operators
monitor and optimize their fi red heaters for improvements in emissions, safety, reliability,
and profi tability.
Top tier refi ners and chemical producers are experimenting with and implementing
analytics and machine learning tools promising to boost throughput and effi ciencies while
reducing downtimes. The issue is that while many of these solutions can help expose
problems, they don't advise how to correct them. OnPoint's EMBER™ software is unique in
that it uses analytics and machine learning in combination with fi rst-principle models from
industry leading subject matter experts to provide real-time actionable recommendations
to optimize your process heater combustion performance.
