231 Enthalpy relations for Eastern oil shale1987-11Enthalpy relations; eastern oil shale; oil shale; oil shale process; oil shale modeling; oil shale engineering; shale enthalpyRelations were developed that allow easy and accurate calculation of enthalpy changes during the heating, retorting, or cooling of raw, spent, or burned Eastern oil shales. The heat capacities of the mineral matter, bound water, kerogen, and char, and the heat of mineral dehydration are given by lin...
232 Environmental assessment: Tar sand in situ steam injection experiment1979-12LETC; in situ recovery of bitumen from tar sand; tar sand; bitumenThe U. S. Department of Energy - Laramie Energy Technology Center (LETC) intends to conduct a field experiment for the in situ recovery of bitumen from tar sand. The experimental site is located on a ten acre site approximately 6.5 miles West of Vernal, Utah. The operational phase of the experiment ...
233 Environmental concerns for oil sands development in Utah--serious unanswered questions2008-02-22tar sands development; tar sand; Southern Utah Wilderness Association; BLM; PEIS; EIA; tar sand recoveryOverview of environmental issues and concerns associated with potential tar sands development in Utah presented by Stephen Bloch, Conservation Director of the Southern Utah Wilderness Association.
234 Environmental impact of in-situ oil shale processing2007-10in situ processing of oil shale; in situ processing; oil shale; production of oil from kerogen; oil productionThe in situ processing of oil shale for the production of oil from the kerogen involves heating the shale slowly to moderate temperatures of between 3000 C and 4000 C. At this temperature, gaseous products that evolve from the oil shale are condensed and recovered. The pathways of creation of oil fr...
