Read MoreThe CO 2 concentration released by oil shale began to accelerate at 200 °C, and reached a peak value of 140,400 ppm at 510 °C. During this period, there were large concentration fluctuations, and then the CO 2 concentration decreased rapidly. Dry distillation has advanced the temperature at which the CO 2 concentration of oil shale …
Read MoreThe oil shale particles on the sieve surface are crushed (PEW400 × 600) and fed into the buffer bin together with the screened oil shale particles. Oil shale in the buffer bin is fed into the compound dry separator (FGX-10) via a vibrating feeder and beneficiated under certain density in the autogenous medium bed.
Read MoreThe USGS Energy Resources Program has studied oil shale resources of the United States, with a significant effort on the Eocene Green River Formation of Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming. This formation contains the largest oil shale deposits in the world. Oil shale, despite the name, does not actually contain oil, but is a precursor of oil that is …

It has a purple hue and is somewhat shiny on higher graphic settings, with a brushed appearance as seen here as a Surface Node. Oil Shale is found in the Desert by digging down at about 20 blocks, where the stone layer begins. It …
Read MoreThe crushed oil shale is mixed with the particles less than 6 mm. Then they are delivered to the surge bunker and fed to the compound dry separator. Oil shale particles are loosely stratified by the synergistic effects of vibration and airflow in the separator bed. The light oil shale particles in the upper layer are discharged from the …

Read MoreThe migration of the external moisture of the moist fine grained oil shale particles in the compound dry separator were systematically investigated, and the separation tests of 6–0 mm fine grain oil shale was carried out by the separator when A, f, Uv and T were 3.2 mm, 54 Hz, 2.45 m/s, 18 s, respectively.
Read MoreIn the short space of 10 years following the turn of the millennium, shale gas completely transformed the global energy market. This new natural gas resource, extracted in more than 30 sedimentary basins across the continental USA and others worldwide, accounted for about 1% of gas production in the USA in 2000, 10% in 2011, and may …

Read More1. Introduction. Oil shale is a highly ash-rich sedimentary rock enriched with combustible organic matter [1], [2].The majority of the organic matter in oil shale is kerogen [3], [4], which is insoluble in common organic solvents [5], [6].The kerogen component is about 3% to 15% in oil shale, and consist of complex organic compound in high …

Read MoreThe technology for in-situ conversion of oil shale is based on hydraulic fracturing, whereby the fractured oil shale is subjected to heating through methods such as hot steam injection, electricity, combustion, and radiation (Liu, 2019).At elevated temperatures, the kerogen within the oil shale undergoes pyrolysis, resulting in the …
Read MoreThe term oil shale is often described as a misnomer, in that the organic component is primarily kerogen, not oil and the mineral matrix is not necessarily clay mineral-rich, but can include a variety of different phases (Miknis and McKay 1983).Oil shales are essentially a type of petroleum source rock, the key differences being that: (1) …
