Oil is produced extracted using different methods depending on geology and location. After recovering the oil it is sent to refineries to create refined products we use every day such as gasoline. The first efforts to tap the oil sands resource began in the mid 20th century using hot water to separate bitumen from sand. Since then the process has evolved into the sophisticated methods we use to extract oil

A system for extracting bitumen from oil sands includes an extractor tank having a reaction chamber. An input port is provided at the upper end of the extractor tank for the purpose of introducing oil sand into the reaction chamber. A liquid extractant is heated and then pumped under pressure into the reaction chamber through a plurality of jet inlets to suspend the oil sand in the
