The US DOE is funding a 600 barrel per day oil shale demonstration plant in southern Indiana. A marketing study has been carried out to consider where to market the 643 bpd of shale oil and the 105 tons per day of 96 percent sulfuric acid. The study did not consider possible uses for minor by-products or spent shales. This paper discusses the product characteristics, potential markets, potential buyers, and transportation. 1 figure, 5 tables.
