    Abstract: A method for processing a bitumen froth comprising bitumen, water and solids including fine solids for reducing the solids concentration in diluted bitumen is provided comprising diluting the bitumen froth with a hydrocarbon diluent to form a dilfroth; adding a sufficient amount of a silicate to the dilfroth to cause a substantial amount of fine solids to associate with the water instead of the diluted bitumen; and allowing the diluted bitumen to separate from the water containing the substantial amount of fine solids to produce a dilbit having less than 3 percent by weight solids.

    Abstract translation: 提供一种处理包含沥青,水和固体的沥青泡沫的方法,包括用于降低稀释沥青中固体浓度的细固体,包括用烃稀释剂稀释沥青泡沫以形成稀释剂; 向稀释剂中加入足够量的硅酸盐以使大量的细小固体与水而不是稀释的沥青缔合; 并且使稀释的沥青与含有大量细固体的水分离以产生具有小于3重量%固体的稀释物。
