Abstract

La présente invention porte sur un procédé de séparation de bitume à partir de sable bitumineux à l'aide d'énergie sonique. En particulier, l'invention porte sur un procédé de récupération de bitume à partir d'un procédé d'extraction de sable bitumineux par sonication d'une bouillie de bitume-eau de façon à ce que la viscosité de la bouillie soit réduite. La sonication peut être appliquée à une bouillie dans un séparateur, ce qui résulte en une séparation accrue du bitume à partir de la fraction de matières solides.
