Oil shale technology and evironmental aspects

Conference · · Nat. AICHE Summer Mtg.; ()
OSTI ID:5873912
Oil shale processes are a combination of mining, retorting, and upgrading facilities. This work outlines the processing steps and some design considerations required in an oil shale facility. A brief overview of above ground and in situ retorts is presented; 6 retorts are described. The development aspects which the oil shale industry is addressing to protect the environment are presented.
