Patent
·
OSTI ID:6157406
Crushed oil shale is segregated into a major portion of relatively large particles and a minor portion of ''fines,'' such as will pass through 1/8 -inch screen openings. The large particles are subjected to retorting in an upflowing bed in countercurrent contact with a downflowing hot eduction gas, while the fines are fed onto and controllably transported across the hot planar surface of a free-standing truncated cone of spent shale at the top of the retort.
