“…The Bartlesvil le Energy Research Center (BERC) has been involved in fossi I fuel characterization studies for many years with such prOiects as the American Petroleum Institute (API) Research Proiect 60 for the characterization of heavy ends of petroleum. Recent studies have involved adaptation of the API RP 60 methods to the characterization of synthetic crude oi Is made from coal (6,14,24,30) and --shale oil (29) as wei I as continued work on the heavy ends of petroleum 05). The four coal syncrudes characterized in our recent studies were produced by three different processes.…”

In a continuing series of characterizaition studies, the Bartlesville Energy Research Center characterized two distil lates and a residue fraction derived from a Colstrip coal liquid produced by the Conoco Coal Development Co. molten zinc chloride catalytic liquefaction process. Procedures, established in earlier work on the heavy ends of petroleum, r were slidhtly modified and applied to these materials. The techniques include several applications of chromatography and instrument61 analyses. Although only 40 percent of the original coal liquid was submitted for analyses, the results were unique in that the portion of the coal liquid analyzed contained a significantly higher amount of monoaromatics as compared to other liquids characterized by use of these procedures.

The available data on the physical and chemical characteristics of crude and hydrotreated shale oil and for shale‐derived naphtha, jet fuel, diesel fuel and residual fuel are reviewed and compared with similar data for analogous petroleum products. The databases for shale oil and petroleum are very diverse and have been generated by numerous investigators using a range of analytical procedures and test samples of various origins, including different raw material sources, processing scales and operating conditions. For both petroleum and shale oil, the detailed compositional data primarily relate to lighter “cuts.” Similar data for heavier cuts generally have not been obtained because of the very complex and variable nature of these products and the questionable utility of the results from the standpoint of refinery applications, and because properties of the individual compounds (especially from the standpoint of biological activity) may not be directly additive. Based on the data reviewed and the consideration of raw material chemistry and nature of the refining operation, it appears that the differences between shale oil and petroleum products are generally a matter of degree rather than kind, with the degree of similarity increasing with the extent of refining.
