1 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 ...
2 Evaluation of the potential end use of oils produced by the ROPE® process from California tar sand1989-12ROPE process oils; California tar sand; tar sand; oil productsThe oil products from Process Development Unit (PDU) run SPR--111 were evaluated for potential end use. This particular run was a fiveday test using Arroyo Grande tar sand from California as the feed to the PDU. The distillate from knockout #2 was hydrotreated to produce a series of process intermed...
3 Processing of Arroyo Grande tar sand using the Recycle Oil Pyrolysis and Extraction (ROPE®) process1989-12WRI; DOE; Recycle Oil Pyrolysis and Extraction; ROPE; retorting tar sand; topical reportWestern Research Institute (WRI), in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), is developing the Recycle Oil Pyrolysis and Extraction (ROPE® ) process for recovering oil from tar sand and for coprocessing heavy crude oil with tar sand. The ROPE® concept consists of two pyrolysis steps:...
4 State of Utah economic & demographic projections 19901989-12This is the updated projection of "baseline" or the "most likely" economic and demographic conditions through the year 2010 for the State of Utah, its multi-county planning districts (MCDs) and its counties. Rapidly changing economic and demographic circumstances in recent years have exacerbated the...
5 Western oil shale conversion using ROPE® process1989-12WRI; recycle oil pyrolysis and extraction; ROPE; liquid hydrocarbon products recovery; oil shale; tar sand; oil recoveryWestern Research Institute (WRI) is continuing to develop the Recycle Oil Pyrolysis and Extraction (ROPE®) process to recover liquid hydrocarbon products from oil shale, tar sand, and other solid hydrocarbonaceous materials. The process consists of three major stepss (1) pyrolyzing the hydrocarbona...
