The one-dimensional packed-bed retort model was used to study the effect of dawsonite decomposition during hot, inert-gas in-situ retorting. A process simulation code has been written for a Staged Turbulent Bed Retorting Process. Pyrolysis of oil shale in material-balanced Fischer assays was carried out on a large number of shale samples. Fluidization of oil shale particles has been measured at room temperature. (DLC)
