In the current energy market, non-traditional fuels like oil shale are becoming more economically important. Australia has >33 billion tonnes of oil shales resources with potential for >1800 million tonnes of recoverable oil. This potential multi-billion dollar industry depends upon development of an efficient technology leading to economical oil production and much cleaner organic liquid fuels. Retorting and combustion, which are core parts of oil shale conversion technology, would benefit from improved process conditions. This research proposal intends to investigate the in-situ complex oil shale thermal conversion reactions that occur during the retorting and combustion processes. Improved understanding of these complex reactions could lead to substantial economic and environmental improvements in oil shale processing.

在当前的能源市场中，油页岩等非传统燃料在经济上变得越来越重要。澳大利亚拥有超过 330 亿吨油页岩资源，可开采石油潜力超过 18 亿吨。这个潜在的价值数十亿美元的产业取决于高效技术的开发，从而实现经济的石油生产和更清洁的有机液体燃料。干馏和燃烧是油页岩转化技术的核心部分，将受益于工艺条件的改善。该研究计划旨在研究干馏和燃烧过程中发生的原位复杂油页岩热转化反应。提高对这些复杂反应的了解可能会导致油页岩加工的经济和环境得到显着改善。
