234 Atomistic modeling of oil shale kerogen and asphaltenes2010-04-28Kerogen is a mixture of organic chemical compounds that make up a portion of the organic matter in sedimentary rocks. It is insoluble in normal organic solvents because of the large molecular weight (upwards of several thousand Daltons). When heated in the Earth's crust (oil window ca. 60 ° - 120 �...
235 Atomistic modeling of oil shale kerogens and asphaltene along with their interactions with the inorganic mineral matrix2011-04atomistic modeling; oil shale kerogens and asphaltene; inorganic mineral matrixThe goal of this project is to obtain and validate three dimensional atomistic models for the organic matter in both oil shales and oil sands. In the case of oil shales the modeling was completed for kerogen, the insoluble portion of the organic matter; for oil sands it was for asphaltenes, a class ...

241 Attrition and abrasion models for oil shale process modeling1991-10-25As oil shale is processed, line particles, much smaller than the original shale are created. This process is called attrition or more accurately abrasion. In this paper, models of abrasion are presented for oil shale being processed in several unit operations. Two of these unit operations, a fluidiz...
