Oil-shale deposits at El-lajjun, a rich oil-shale area south of Jordan, were extracted with organic solvents. The amount of extracted oil depends on the operating conditions and parameters which affect the process. The effects of particle size, extraction time, extraction temperature, mixing rate, solvent-to-oil-shale ratio, and type of solvent were investigated.
