PRESSURIZED FLUIDIZED-BED HYDRORETORTING OF RAW AND BENEFICIATED EASTERN OIL SHALES

[摘要] Bench-scale tests were conducted with raw and beneficiated shales in an advanced multi-purpose research reactor. Raw Alabama shale and raw and beneficiated Indiana shales were retorted at 515-degrees-C using hydrogen pressures of 4 and 7 MPa. Shale feed rates were 15 to 34 kg h-1. High oil yields and carbon conversions were achieved in all tests. Oil yield from Alabama shale hydroretorted at 7 MPa was 200% of Fischer assay. Raw and beneficiated Indiana shales hydroretorted at 7 MPa produced oil yields of 170 and 195% of Fischer assay respectively. Total carbon conversions were > 70% for all tests conducted at 7 MPa.
