On solar thermal processing and retorting of oil shale | 1988-05 | The general concept and a recent paper on solar oil shale retorting are critically reviewed. It is concluded that a recent paper by Berber and Fletcher (Energy 13. 13, 1988) contains erroneously high oil yields and provides no new valid information related to solar oil shale process design or econom... | |

Oil shale retorting in dense phase hot-solid recycle systems | 1988-06 | Oil shale processing remains primitive despite more that a century of study and development. To expand the industry in China, and to develop an industry in the U.S.A., more efficient, environmentally acceptable oil shale retorting schemes are required. Rapid pyrolysis, solid-recycle retorts offer hi... | |
