The pyrolysis of Stuart oil shale in the presence/absence of fully combusted shale (shale ash) in superheated steam or nitrogen was conducted in the range 450 to 600Β°C in a 48 mm diameter semi-continuous fluidized-bed reactor. The detrimental effect of shale ash on oil yields in a recycled shale ret
The kinetics of hydrocarbon evolution from the pyrolysis of Rundle and Nagoorin shales can be described by two simultaneous first order rate laws whose relative contributions depend on the pyrolysis temperature. At low temperatures, a relatively rapid release of low molecular weight products occurs
An experimental design was carried out to determine the influence of sample weight, final temperature, initial gas pressure, heating rate, residence time and nature of the pyrolysis atmosphere on the yield and composition of pyrolysis shale oil. The study involved discontinuous pyrolysis procedures.
