Abstract:
Pyrolysis of a New Brunswick oil shale has been studied in a 12.8cm diameter spouted bed reactor. The aim of the project was to study the effect of pyrolysis temperature, shale particle size, feed rate and bed material on oil yield. Gas and spent shale yields were also determined. Shale of different particle size ranging from 0.5mm to 4mm was studied using an electrically heated reactor containing sand or spent shale which was spouted with nitrogen or nitrogen/carbon dioxide mixtures. For a given particle size and feed rate, there is a maximum in oil yield with temperature. For particles of 1
