Oil shale and coal research FY 1980

OSTI ID:5748020

The program is concerned with the environmental consequences of shale oil production: air, solid waste, and water pollution. The program is concerned with the characterization, transport, fate, and control of organic, organometallic, and inorganic compounds synthesized or released during retorting. A number of previously unrecognized or little understood environmental concerns have been identified, such as in-situ leaching, air emission of toxic trace elements, and aqueous effluent disposal. This document contains 18 individual summaries of various research topics, arranged under the following headings: characterization studies, partitioning studies, retort abandonment, wastewater treatment studies, and coal research (water). Separate abstracts were prepared for 17 of these papers; the remaining paper was previously processed for the data base. (DLC)
