As an unconventional petroleum and gas resource, petroliferous shale pyrolysis can obtain
oil-retaining property-shale fuel similar to crude oil that can replace natural gas …

The recoverable resource of shale gas is 25 trillion cubic meter, 33% of which is stored in
transitional shales in China. This work investigates the effects of organic and inorganic …

For exploring and optimizing the oil shale fluidized bed retort with fine oil-shale ash as a
solid heat carrier, retorting experiments of oil shale and fine oil-shale ash mixtures were …

The effect of mineral matter content on the activation energy of oil shale pyrolysis has been
studied. Kerogen was isolated from raw oil shale by sequential HCl and HCl/HF digestion …

A novel method using multilateral wells to perform oil shale in-situ conversion process is
proposed in this paper. This method constructs radial branches in upper and lower oil shale …

Oil shale samples from Huadian were retorted in a stainless-steel cylindrical retort under
argon atmosphere to determine retorting temperature effect on the product yield and …

Oil shale in-situ conversion is an effective and promising exploitation method. The most
concerned problem of oil shale in-situ conversion is how to exploit maximum oil and gas by …

Eight different three-parallel distributed activation energy model (DAEM) reaction model
processes, which were used to describe the pyrolysis of eight lignocellulosic biomass …

In our work, a series of experiments on pyrolysis of the large particle oil shale (6–15 mm)
were carried out in a self-made retorting pyrolyzer, in order to obtain the optimal final …

There are significant resources of oil shale in the western United States, which if exploited in
an environmentally responsible manner would provide secure access to transportation fuels …
