210 Microstructural distribution of sulfur during the retorting and oxidation of oil shale1982-11Oil shale; Retorting; Combustion; Sulfur; Microstructural distributionWe report here the first direct observations of the mineralogical and chemical changes in oil shale caused by retorting and combustion. Electron microprobe and scanning electron microscopy techniques were used to examine a portion of the surface area of a sample in the raw shale state, the same area...
211 Mathematical modeling of modified in situ and aboveground oil shale retorting1981-01mathematical modeling; modified in situ; aboveground oil shale retorting; oil shaleA one-dimensional mathematical model has been developed for simulating the chemicophysical processes involved in the vertical retorting of a rubblized bed of oil shale. Included in the present model are those processes believed to have the most important effects in either the hot-gas retorting mode ...
212 Hot water processing of U.S. tar sands -- Water recycle and tailings disposal1984hot water processing; U.S. tar sands; water recycle; tailings disposal; bitumen recoveryTailings disposal and water recycle are vital factors for the industrial development of a hot water process for the recovery of bitumen from U.S. tar sands. Based on batch laboratory experiments, with 4 to 12 kg tar sand charge, tailings sedimentation behaviours are presented and discussed for tar s...
213 General model of oil shale pyrolysis1983-11oil shale; oil shale pyrolysis; oil shale pyrolysis model; general kinetic model; kerogen pyrolysis; liquid oil vaporization; liquid oilOur general chemical kinetic model for oil shale pyrolysis has been further developed.

214 Median residence and dispersion times for fluidization of crushed oil shale1983-03-24median residence and dispersion; fluidization of crushed oil shale; crushed oil shaleMedian residence times and dispersions for crushed oil shale flowing downward through a fluidized bed were measured as a function of particle size, nominal residence time, and fluidizing gas velocity. For fluidized beds containing narrow particle-size distribution, it was found that median residence...
