Abstract
A method is for heating a petroleum ore and may include providing a mixture of about 10% to about 99% by volume of the petroleum ore and about 1% to about 50% by volume of a composition. The composition may have isoimpedance magnetodielectric material susceptor particles. The isoimpedance magnetodielectric material susceptor particles may have an electrical conductivity greater than 1×107 S/m at 20° C. The method may include applying RF energy to the mixture at a power and frequency sufficient to heat the isoimpedance magnetodielectric material susceptor particles, and continuing to apply the RF energy for a sufficient time to allow the isoimpedance magnetodielectric material susceptor particles to heat the mixture to an average temperature greater than about 212° F. (100° C.)
