If a high-pressure pump discharges fuel in an injection waiting period from injection setting to injection start, fuel pressure to occur at injection start time is estimated and a fuel pressure correction coefficient is calculated based on the estimated fuel pressure. The sequential addressing circuit comprises at least one sequential shift register including at least one logic gate and at least one word flag cell for each of the word lines. Another method disclosed includes upgrading the oil in the substrate to improve one or more of the properties of the recovered oil relative to the oil in the substrate, such as, lower aromatics content, lower sulfur content, lower functional group content, higher saturates, higher viscosity, higher viscosity index, and any combination thereof.
