The investigations reported in this thesis were made to obtain information regarding three materials that were thought to be possible sources of aggregates for light-weight...

Project Final Report-DE-FC26-05NT15458-This innovative project seeks to link an established enhanced oil recovery (EOR) procedure: carbon dioxide (CO2) water-after-gas (WAG)...

The Kansas Class 2 project was a demonstration project in an Osagian and Meramecian (Mississippian) shallow shelf carbonate reservoir in west central Kansas. Cumulative...

Effective removal of SO{sub 2} released due to the combustion of coal is of primary concern and of vital importance in fluidized bed combustion technology. Utilization of...

Natural underground reservoirs capable of containing water, petroleum and gases include sandstones, limestones, dolomite, and fractured rocks of various types. Comprehensive...

The Crow Reservation is an under-explored area in terms of oil and gas potential. By studying an excellent reservoir horizon, the Greybull Sandstone, possible exploration leads...

The alkali hydroxides, NaOH and KOH, and the alkali oxides, NaO and KO, have been studied. Emphasis has been on the determination of bond energies and spectra for these species....

The overall purpose of this study was to evaluate the primary sulfate emissions from utility boilers burning pulverized western subbituminous coal or lignite and equipped with...

A process for utilizing anthracite culm in a fluidized bed combustion system was demonstrated by the design and construction of a prototype steam plant at Shamokin, PA, and...

We report here some work on the modeling of oil shale retorts for electromagnetic sensing techniques. The aim is to obtain useful information about the contents of the retort by...

The 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectra were obtained for nitrogen compound-type fractions from a Geokinetics shale oil distillate and a Caribou intermediately refined oil...

The operation of Occidental's Vertical Modified In-Situ Retort 6 is analyzed using data provided as part of the Phase I cooperative agreement with DOE. The analysis is divided...

This report defines and characterizes an advanced, industrial, fluidized-bed combustion concept - the internally circulating AFBC - having superior performance and cost...

The presence of hydrocarbon source rocks in Cambrian sub-Knox Group sedimentary rocks of the Appalachian Basin has been debated for years. Numerous shows of oil and gas in sub-...

An investigation of the thermal decomposition of Michigan Antrim oil shale showed that the kinetics obeyed a second-order power-model equation over the region where the kerogen...

Under contracted work with Morgantown Energy Technology Center, Clemson University, the prime contractor, and General Electric (GE) and CRSS, the subcontractors, made a...

This report summarizes technical progress over the fourth year of the ''Optical Fiber Sensor Technologies for Efficient and Economical Oil Recovery''program, funded by the...

The Mancos B Formation is a complex of intimately interbedded and interlaminated claystone, siltstone, and fine sandstone formed in a marine environment about 100 miles east of...

A comparative study between the kinetics of oil generation from Ohio and Colorado shales has been done. To facilitate comparison and to eliminate systematic errors, the same...

This report evaluates alternatives for accelerating the commercialization of synthetic fuels technology in the U.S. and recommends a program of appropriate size and scope. Also...
