183 Determination of the major elements and trace metals present in bitumen from several tar sand deposits1985-01The results of the analyses of 14 tar sand samples for the concentration of major elements and trace metals are presented. Ten samples were obtained from the Uinta Basin of Utah, three from the southeastern part of Utah, and one from New Mexico. In general, the major element composition of the bitum...
184 Development of an eastern shale oil residue as an asphalt additive: Subtask 2.51997-08-11eastern shale oil residue; asphalt additive; western shale oil-derived asphalt additive; oxidative age hardening; shale oil chemistryAn evaluation of eastern shale oil as an asphalt additive to reduce oxidative age hardening and moisture susceptibility is being conducted. An eastern shale oil residue having a viscosity of 1.30 Pa.s at 60° C (140°F) was blended with three different petroleum-derived asphalts that are known to be...
185 Development of an inclined liquid fluidized bed for tar sand processing1989-12An inclined liquid fluidized-bed reactor (ILFBR) system has been developed and successfully operated for 24 hours. Modifications to the previously tested ILFBR systems include incorporation of a oil fluidizing zone in the front of the fluid bed, an increase in the angle of the fluid bed to -12 (the ...
186 Development of the IIT Research Institute RF heating process for in situ oil shale/tar sand fuel extraction--an overview1981-04The history and current status of development of IITRI's RF process for in situ oil shale/tar sand fuel extraction is described . A brief description of the salient features of IITRI's RF process is given, together with a review of past laboratory development activities. Activities with in IITRI's ...
187 Development of Utah tar sands--a status report1977The hydrocarbon resource locked in Utah's tar sands has been estimated to be in excess of 25 billion barrels. Tar sands, known variously as oil sands, bituminous sandstone, or oil-impregnated sandstone, cannot be recovered by conventional primary or secondary petroleum recovery techniques because of...
188 Developments in low NOx incineration technologiesThe overall combustion industry continues to design and develop new low NOx and ultra-low NOx technologies across many applications. In general incineration design and requirements have lagged other technologies like process heaters and boiler burners. This is due to many factors but there is new fo...
189 Diagenetic and burial history of the Lower Permian White Rim Sandstone in the Tar Sand Triangle, Paradox Basin, southeastern Utah1995Subsurface petrologic study and burial history reconstruction of the Lower Permian White Rim Sandstone in the Tar Sand triangle on the western edge of the Paradox Basin in southeastern Utah suggest that oil migrated into White Rim reservoirs after significant burial during the early Tertiary. Primar...
190 Dilution centrifuging of bitumen froth from the hot water process for tar sand1983-05-17Patent; Dilution centrifuging; Bitumen froth; Tar sand; Naphtha-diluted bitumen frothIn the known operation wherein naphtha-diluted bitumen froth is pumped from a scroll-type centrifugal separator to a disc-type centrifugal separator, an improved pumping system is provided. The system comprises at least two centrifugal pumps in series, each operating preferably at an impellor tip sp...
191 Dimensions, exterior surfaces, volumes, densities and shape factors for particles of crushed Colorado oil shale in two narrow sieve fractions (Abstract)1981-09-29Colorado oil shale; oil shale; narrow sieve fractions; large-scale oil extraction; factors of oil-shale particles; oil shale particlesLarge-scale extraction of oil from Colorado oil shale will require that the rock be fragmented for heat processing, whether the retorting be done above or below ground level. Understanding of fluid friction, heat transfer and mass transfer in beds of shale particles requires that we be able to char...
192 Directory of State of Utah statistics 19711971-09The Directory of State of Utah Statistics has been developed in response to the need for a fairly comprehensive guide to statistical information published by the State. The Directory is intended to fulfill two objectives. The first and major objective is to make available to policy makers, planners ...
193 Domestic tar sands and potential recovery methods--a review1969-12The purpose of this paper is to review and evaluate present knowledge of United States tar sands including physical properties, occurrence, reserves, and recovery methods.
