Organic and pyritic sulfur determination in oil shale | 1983-03-01 | H2S; Pyritic sulfur; Oil shale; Kentucky; Ohio; Colorado; Utah; Wyoming; Oil shale deposits; Sulfur | Sulfur forms in oil shale are defined according to their reduction rates to H2S in the presence of hydrogen-donor solvents. A linear increase in temperature with time is applied to a reaction system of oil shale and hydrogen-donor solvents. The different temperatures at which H2S is detected corresp... |

North-South core-based cross section through the middle to upper Green River Formation, Uinta Basin, Utah - Plate 2 | 2014 | oil shale; economic oil shale; oil shale zone; cross section; Green River Formation; well log; core log | The top of economic oil shale was picked at the top of the lower R-8 zone (top of the Big Three rich oil shale beds). This zone was selected to avoid the abundant saline minerals found in the overlaying saline zone, which often contains high-TDS water. If saline minerals (and high-TDS water) do not ... |

An evaluation of triple quadrupole ms/ms for on-line analyses of trace sulfur compounds from oil shale processing | 1985 | | In order to effectively reduce sulfur gas content from shale processing to environmentally acceptable levels, H2S, COS, S02 and CH3SH plus trace sulfur compounds must be removed. Of these, the trace sulfur compounds have not been well characterized but should be known to ppm levels In order to optim... |
