115 Colorful Gilson did more than promote gilsonite1996-03The following article from The Times-Independent in Moab pays tribute to the man for whom Gilsonite is named. Utah's American Gilsonite Company traces its roots to Sam Gilson.
116 Combustion of municipal solid wastes with oil shale in a circulating fluidized bed1996-06-30The authors of this report have invented an integrated process for the treatment of municipal solid waste (MSW). In this process, after recycling steps to save usable materials such as aluminum, other metals, and glass have been completed, the resulting refusederived fuel (RDF) is co-combusted with ...
117 Comparing 10 methods for solution verification and linking to model validation2005-03-25Grid convergence; V&V process; Solution Verification; Discretized continuum; Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory; Computational analyses; Discretization; Continuum process; Finite elemental analysesGrid convergence is often assumed as a given during computational analyses involving discretization of an assumed continuum process. In practical use of finite difference and finite element analyses, perfect grid convergence is rarely achieved or assured, and this fact must be addressed to make stat...
118 Comparison of kinetic analysis of source rocks and kerogen concentrates1994-05-10Shales and kerogen concentrates from the Green River, Rundel, Ohio, Kimmeridge, and Phosphoria formations were examined by Pyromat II micropyrolysis and kinetic parameters were determined by the shift-in-Tm a x , discrete distribution, modified Friedman, and modified Coats-Redfern methods. Overall, ...
119 Comparison of laboratory and field steamfloods in tar sandIn situ recovery technologies for tar sand and heavy oil are simulated at the Western Research Institute to prepare for pilot tests and commercial operations. Wide ranges of process parameters are tested in one-dimensional reactor tubes in which the tar sand or heavy oil is uniformly reconstituted t...
120 Comparison of methods for measuring kerogen pyrolysis rates and fitting kinetic parameters1987-03-23We determine rates of product evolution during pyrolysis of several petroleum source rocks and isolated kerogens by nonisothermal techniques, including Rock Eval pyrolysis and pyrolysis-MS/MS. The resulting data are analyzed by nonlinear regression and simpler correlation techniques in terms of disc...
121 Composition and origin of the Uinta Basin bitumens1963-01The names of the three formations of interest, from oldest to youngest, the Wasatch, Green River, and Uinta, have been used largely as facies terms to differentiate sediments which were believed to be of different age but actually were deposited simultaneously. The Wasatch is predominantly fluviatil...
122 Concentration of eastern oil shales by froth flotation1983Concentration of Eastern oil shale has been accomplished by size reduction and froth flotation techniques. The efficiency of kerogen recovery depends on the extent of size reduction (1iberation) as well as frother and promoter additions. Certain grinding aids sucli as sodium silicate and fuel oil ha...
123 Conjunctive surface and groundwater management in Utah: Implications for oil shale and oil sands development2011-12-31Unconventional fuel development; Conjunctive water use; Surface water; Groundwater; Utah; Utah water law; Oil shale; Oil sandsUnconventional fuel development will require scarce water resources. In an environment characterized by scarcity, and where most water resources are fully allocated, prospective development will require minimizing water use and seeking to use water resources in the most efficient manner. Conjunctive...
124 Control strategies for abandoned in situ oil shale retorts1979-04In situ oil shale retorting may result in a number of environmental impacts including degradation of local surface and groundwaters, low resource recovery and subsidence. The target of present oil shale commercialization activities is the Mahogany zone in Colorado's Piceance Creek Basin. The princip...
125 Conversion of hydrocarbon gases to liquid in the fluidized bed retort1987-06-12A free radical steady-state mechanism has been developed to explain qualitative and quantitative aspects of the generation of hydrocarbon gases in the solid-recycle fluidized bed retort. The mechanism relies on what is known about butane cracking. The 1- and 2-butyl free radicals have been studied a...
