Abstract

Un système et un procédé dextraction pour lextraction de bitume à partir dune suspension de bitume, de solides et deau. Le système comprend une installation de séparation à cyclone pour séparer la suspension en un flux de composants solides et en un flux de mousse de bitume avec le flux de mousse de bitume comprenant de leau et des solides fins. Le flux de mousse de bitume est ensuite transféré à une installation de concentration de la mousse pour séparer le flux de mousse de bitume en un flux final de mousse enrichie en bitume et en un flux deau et de solides fins. Le flux final de mousse enrichie en bitume est approprié pour un autre traitement. Le système de la présente invention est de préférence mobile de sorte que linstallation dextraction par cyclone et linstallation de concentration de mousse peuvent se déplacer avec le front de taille à un site dextraction de sables bitumineux. Toutefois, il est également envisagé que le système puisse être mis à niveau pour des installations fixes de traitement existantes pour améliorer lefficacité dexploitation de telles installations fixes.
