Preparation and injection of grout from spent shale for stabilization of abandoned in-situ oil shale retorts
Conference
·
OSTI ID:6038601
A procedure has been developed for stabilizing abandoned in-situ oil shale retorts by means of high-temperature treatment of surface-processed shale, followed by grinding, mixing with water, and injection underground. Laboratory results indicate that abandoned in-situ retorts can be made strong enough to prevent subsidence, and sufficiently impermeable to greatly reduce groundwater flow. The underground injection also reduces the amount of spent-shale disposal on the surface.
