Abstract
Processus de traitement de la mousse de bitume comprenant du bitume, de l'eau et un minéral consistant à soumettre un premier mélange de la mousse de bitume et du diluant ajouté à une première force de séparation par gravité afin d'obtenir un premier écoulement de surface et un premier écoulement de fond, à soumettre un deuxième mélange du premier écoulement de fond et du diluant ajouté à une deuxième force de séparation par gravité afin d'obtenir un deuxième écoulement de surface et un deuxième écoulement de fond, et à soumettre un troisième mélange du deuxième écoulement de fond et du diluant ajouté à une troisième force de séparation par gravité afin d'obtenir un troisième écoulement de surface et un troisième écoulement de fond, où le premier écoulement de surface est un diluat du bitume. Le processus peut en outre consister à soumettre un quatrième mélange du premier écoulement de surface et du diluant ajouté à une quatrième force de séparation par gravité afin d'obtenir un quatrième écoulement de surface et un quatrième écoulement de fond, de telle manière que le quatrième écoulement de surface soit le diluat du bitume.
