Asphaltenes that have been phosphochlorinated and then post-reacted with one or more of the aforementioned alcohols are characterized as being compatible with Bunker "C" oil or Bunker "C" oil blended with Light Recycle Gas Oil.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Asphaltenes are components of the bitumen in petroleum, petroleum products, and other bituminous materials which are soluble in carbon disulfide but insoluble in paraffin naphtha. The physical and chemical characteristics of asphaltenes have been the subject of considerable investigation for at least a century. The asphaltene molecule appears to carry a core of approximately five stacked flat sheets of condensed aromatic rings, one above the other giving an overall height of 16-20 angstroms. The average sheet diameter appears to be about 8.5 to 15 angstroms. The molecular weight of petroleum asphaltenes ranges from about 1,000 to 10,000.

Shale oil asphaltenes appear to have a lower molecular weight.

Qualitative and semiquantitative detection of asphaltenes and bituminous liquids, e.g. petroleum and petroleum derived liquids, is conventionally carried out by observing the precipitation of asphaltenes by naphtha addition.

The presence of asphaltenes in bituminous liquid, e.g. petroleum crude, refinery streams, and other natural and processed bituminous liquids, is well known as are the problems resolving from the presence and precipitation of the asphaltenes. In petroleum production, for example, it has long been known that asphaltenes may, under some circumstances, precipitate to form a sludge which plugs up the oil bearing formation and prevents the recovery of additional petroleum. Sludge in such compositions is known to form in petroleum bearing formations, on valves, pump impellers, in conduits, and in other bituminous liquid handling equipment.

Generally, it is regarded as an advantage to keep the asphaltenes in a stable suspension in the bituminous liquid until well into the refining process. This not only increases the ultimate yield but prevents or reduces maintenance problems and also improves productivity from bituminous liquid bearing formations.

Our method for improving the compatibility of asphaltenes in Bunker "C" oil and Bunker "C" oil blends entails bulk phosphochlorination of the asphaltene followed by bulk of the phosphochlorinated-asphaltene intermediate. This invention constitutes a method for stabilizing asphaltenes in petroleum, shale oil, refinery streams, and other bituminous liquids. This two step process is outlined below:

Step 1

Phosphochlorination of Asphaltene

Asphaltene is initially dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (THF) and phosphochlorinated using phosphorous trichloride.

Asphaltene dissolution in THF permits extensive and homogeneous asphaltene phosphochlorination.

Phosphochlorination using PC13 is shown below in Equation 1 (Eq.1). ##STR6##

Step 2

Alkoxylation of Phosphochlorinated Asphaltene

Phosphochlorinated asphaltenes react readily with oligomeric polyethers and alcohols generating phospho-alkoxylated asphaltenes. Post-reaction of phosphochlorinated asphaltene with an oligomeric polyether diol is shown below in Equation 2 (Eq. 2). ##STR7##

The present compatibilization differs from other methods since the phosphochlorination and alkoxylation are homogenuously distributed throughout the asphaltene. Other methods that have attempted to compatibilize asphaltenes are more aptly characterized as homogeneous surface modifications containing surface active agents.

Additional experiments were also performed in order to underscore the need to chemically modify the asphaltene in order to improve their compatibility in bituminous liquids. More specifically, the rationale that was used in the following Examples is outlined below:

a) Blends of I wt. % and 2 wt. % unmodified asphaltenes in Bunker "C" oil and Bunder "C" oil containing Light Recycle Recycle Gas Oil were assayed as baseline data. These test results appear below in Table I.

b) Blends of 1 wt. % to 2 wt. % phospho-alkoxylated asphaltenes and Bunker "C" oil and Bunker "C" oil containing Light Recycle Gas Oil were prepared and evaluated for enhanced compatibility. These tests reflect the effect of the bulk chemical modification of the asphaltene. These test results appear below in Tables II, III, IV, and V.

c) Blends of physical mixtures of unmodified asphaltenes and alkyl- or aromatic phosphites in bituminous liquids were evaluated for compatibility. These tests are designed to measure the effect on compatibilization alkyl- or aromatic phosphite mixtures have on unmodified asphaltenes. These test results appear below in Table VI.

d) Bituminous liquids were phospho-alkoxylated and then blended with unmodified asphaltenes. These tests were designed to measure the effect on compatibilization of unmodified asphaltenes with phospho-alkoxylated bituminous liquids. These test results appear below in Table VII.

e) Alkyl- and aromatic phosphite surface active agents were incorporated onto the asphaltene surface and compatibility assayed for enhanced asphaltene compatibilization. These tests were designed to measure the effect surface active agents have upon asphaltene compatibilization in bituminous liquids. These test results appear below in Table VIII.

In the Examples, the terms used for various materials are trade names of products (such as "PPG-" and "PolyBd") manufactured and sold, respectively, by Texaco Chemical Company of Houston, Tex. and Arco, Inc. of Philadelphia, Pa. and defined as follows:

PPG-400 is a poly propylene glycol having a molecular weight of 400;

2) PPG-1000 is a poly propylene glycol having a molecular weight of 1000;

3) PPG-2000 is a poly propylene glycol having a molecular weight of 2000; and

4) Poly BD diol (Mn=2000 amu) is a poly butadiene diol having a molecular weight of 2000.

The mixture was permitted to react under these conditions from 1 to 75 hours. Phosphochlorinated asphaltenes when then isolated by removing unreacted PCl.sub.3 and THF through atmospheric or vacuum distillation. This intermediate was stored under anhydrous conditions pending subsequent reaction.

EXAMPLE XIX

Phosphoalkoxylations prepared in Bunker "C" oil utilized material stoichiometry outlined above in Examples 1 and 2. Unmodified asphaltenes were dissolved in THF and added to Bunker "C" phosphoalkoxylated material; THF was removed by heating gently this mixture under atmospheric pressure.

The novel reaction products of this invention were evaluated according to the Spot Test as outlined in the ASTM D 2781 test method. In the spot test, Bunker "C" oil or Bunker "C" blend containing Light Recycle Gas Oil and the modified or unmodified asphaltene are heated to 150.degree. C. for a specified time and the sample removed and agitated for a specified duration. One drop of the mixture is placed onto a sheet of filter paper using a glass rod. The filter paper is baked in the oven and oil diffuses radically from the point of addition to give a uniform brown circle. Any asphaltenes which have precipitated during this process appear as a ring of darker material. The sample is rated using integers on a scale of one though five, the higher numbers indicating that precipitation has occurred.

As the forgoing data indicate, amidation of bulk phosphochlorinated asphaltenes causes dramatic compatibilization in Bunker "C" oil and Bunker "C" oil blends containing Light Recycle Gas Oil. Less dramatic results are obtained by the incorporation of surface active agents onto asphaltenes. Finally, little emulsifying effect was observed by blending unmodified asphaltenes with Bunker "C" oil and oil blends containing amidated trichlorophosphorous.
