In this research, NixFe3-xO4 material and NixFe3-xO4/zeolite nanocomposites have been synthesized using microwave-assisted coprecipitation method. These materials were then applied as catalyst for reducing viscosity of heavy oil in aquathermolysis. Raw materials used in this method were NiCl2.6H2O,...
