Sample management and chemical characterization of the Paraho/Sohio/US Navy crude and refined shale oil suite

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5149943
The role of the EPA/DOE Fossil Fuels Research Materials Facility in this study is to actively support and coordinate the health effects investigations of this oil shale development by acting as a central point for acquisition, cataloging, storage, and distribution of referenceable materials for study. In addition, selected materials are chemically fractionated for bioassay and are characterized in additional detail beyond that of routine stability monitoring. Finally, the Facility is acting as an information transfer agent to insure that the results of the investigations are made available to the oil shale industry and the funding agencies. This paper is concerned with the sample management and characterization aspect of the Facility's role in this study.
