Abstract (en)

[origin: WO8504893A1] The method and associated apparatus for recovering fractions from hydrocarbon material, comprising the steps of generating electromagnetic energy generally in the frequency range of 300 megahertz to about 300 gigahertz, in accordance with the lossiness of the material, transmitting the generated electromagnetic energy to the hydrocarbon material, directing the transmitted electromagnetic energy to a plurality of hydrocarbon material locations, exposing the hydrocarbon material at the selected locations to the electromagnetic energy for a sufficient period of time to sequentially separate the hydrocarbon material into fractions, and removing the resulting fractions.
