Solid-state 13C n.m.r. (CP/MAS-13C n.m.r.) spectroscopy provides a direct method for estimating potential oil yields of oil shale formations. Relative aliphatic resonance areas correlate linearly with oil yield and provide a method for oil yield estimation that obviates the need to determine weight

β¦ Synopsis
Shale oil recovered from Fischer assays of fresh and artificially weathered oil shales have been compared using 'H and 1 3C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and elemental analyses. Rundle, Julia Creek and Green River shales were exposed to air at 100Β°C for 60 weeks to simulate either geological weathering, or oxidation during drying or stockpiling prior to retorting. As a result of oxidation, the oils became more aromatic, with higher oxygen contents and shorter average aliphatic chain lengths. Variations in the distribution of phenols, acids and ketones, as well as heterocyclic compounds containing nitrogen and sulphur, have been detected.

elevating control of emitter heating current ranging at least from 6 to 12 mA was found to be essential. In conclusion, a combination of emitter heating current control and the accumulation of ions on a photographic plate or through a computer will be indispensable in the measurement of mixtures. Th
A sample of kerogen from Aleksinac oil shale was examined by high-resolution solid-state Iac n.m.r. spectroscopy. The presence and relative proportions of kerogen structural units were estimated using a combination of NQS and Tlpc methods with a peak-synthesis technique applied to the 13C CP-MAS spe
As part of a study to evaluate the potential of shale oils for lubricating oil production, samples from the Rundle and Stuart oil shale deposits in Australia have been processed to produce a range of products which were then characterized by 'Hand 13C high resolution nuclear magnetic resonance (n.m.
