451 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...
452 The determination of the major elements and trace metals present in bitumen from several tar sand deposits1985-01trace metals in bitumen; tar sand deposits; tar sand; bitumen extractionThe 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...
453 The development of a bench scale metal distillation furnace (retort)1995-06-19bench scale metal distillation furnace; retort; spent reactor fuel; actinides recoveryProcesses for the recovery of actinides from spent reactor fuel being studied at Argonne National Laboratory required the design of a high-temperature vacuum furnace, the furnace has to be able to melt actinides, distill volatile metals (Zn and Mg), be operable in a nitrogen glovebox with low head r...
454 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...
455 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 ...
456 Development of baseline data and analysis of life cycle greenhouse gas emissions of petroleum-based fuels2008-11-26baseline data and analysis; life cycle greenhouse gas emissions; petroleum based fuels; alternative transportation fuel options; GHG emissions; reduce greenouse gass emissionsAlternative transportation fuel options are currently being explored or implemented across the nation to (1) reduce climate change impacts from the release of greenhouse gases (GHGs), (2) reduce our reliance on foreign sources of energy, and (3) provide an economically-stable transportation fuel sou...
457 Development of CFD-based simulation tools for in situ thermal processing of oil shale/sands2012-02CFD; in situ; in situ thermal processing; oil shale; oil sandsIn our research, we are taking the novel approach of developing and applying high performance computing, computational fluid dynamics (CFD)-based simulation tools to a modified in-situ process for production of oil from oil shale. The simulation tools being developed capture the relevant physical pr...

459 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 ...
460 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...
461 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...
462 Developments in upgrading of bitumen by hydropyrolysis1989hydropyrolysis; upgrading bitumen; gas processingHydropyrolysis, a short residence time, moderate temperature process, has been under development at the University of Utah for more than a decade. Hydropyrolysis has been shown to produce 90+% liquid product yields from feedstocks containing more than 50% nonvolatile materials. The process results i...
463 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...
