Integrated environmental control technology approach to oil shale commercialization
A literature search was conducted to evaluate information about the chemistry, behavior, and distribution of environmentally hazardous water contaminants produced during extraction (above and below ground) and upgrading of shale oil, and to assess research in oil shale environmental control technology. This report details the literature pertinent to environmental control technology research. Air quality, water quality, potential surface disruption, and potential problem areas are assessed, research needs are identified, and where applicable, environmental control technologies and future research areas are indicated.
