Organic constituents in sour condensates from shale-oil and petroleum-crude runs at Sohio's Toledo refinery: identification and wastewater-control-technology considerations

Description: Samples of sour condensate generated from the continuous processing of both crude shale oil and petroleum crude were collected and extracted with methylene chloride. The extracts were analyzed using capillary-column gas chromatography/mass spectrometry at Argonne National Laboratory and Radian Corporation. Qualitatively, the predominant types of organic compounds present in the shale-oil sour condensate were pyridines and anilines; semiquantitatively, these compounds were present at a concentra… more

Trace elements in oil shale. Progress report, June 1, 1976--May 31, 1977

Description: A substantial number of samples of water, stream sediment, soils, plants, oil shale, spent shale, shale oil and other materials were collected for analyses. A considerable amount of effort was also involved in the development and validation of methods for preparing and analyzing these samples for trace element content. Among the results are: Cu, Li, and Zn exhibit well-defined trends in soils over the Piceance Basin, with values increasing from north to south; As, Mo, B, and Se are all elevated… more

Fracture mechanics of oil shale: some preliminary results

Description: Results of a comprehensive series of fracture toughness tests on oil shale from Anvil Points are presented. Since oil shale is layered and transversely isotropic, three-point-bend specimens representing 20 and 40 gal/ton were tested in the three principal crack orientations--divider, arrester, and short transverse. These specimens were fatigue cracked to produce a sharp natural crack in a stable manner by means of loading between fixed limits of the crack opening displacement. Crack front posit… more
