Ferrocene addition for suppression of hydrogen sulfide formation during thermal recovery of oil sand bitumen

Pyrolysis of Oil Sand Bitumen Using a Fixed-Bed Reactor: Process Modeling and Compositional Analysis

“…Notable observations showed that methane was the most dominant gas produced during the pyrolysis of oil sand bitumen, with Mile 2 bitumen exhibiting the highest methane yield (68.90%) and Orisunbare bitumen exhibiting the least methane yield (62.15%) among the bitumen samples. The high volume of methane gas generated during the pyrolysis of the Nigerian oil sand bitumen is consistent with the report of another study where methane gas was identified as the major gas component of Athabasca oil sand bitumen and Indonesian oil sand bitumen , after pyrolysis. Carbon (IV) oxide was next in product yield with 27.44, 23.90, and 31.47% for Agbabu, Mile 2, and Orisunbare bitumen, respectively.…”

“…Carbon (IV) oxide was next in product yield with 27.44, 23.90, and 31.47% for Agbabu, Mile 2, and Orisunbare bitumen, respectively. Similarly, the predominance of the non-hydrocarbon CO 2 gas is consistent with the literature . Ethane and propane were hydrocarbon gases that were produced in notable quantities while the other gases (oxygen, hexane, hydrogen sulfide, pentane, heptane, ammonia, octane, and isobutane) were produced in relatively low quantities.…”

Development of cost-effective and long-lasting integrated technology for H2S control from sludge in wastewater treatment plants

“…Besides treating the sludge in WWTPs, these integrated methods can also be used for the control of H 2 S in other environments, namely anaerobic sulfate-rich wastewaters and oil wells and reservoirs, where the H 2 S is generated from the biological sulfate reduction process mediated by SRB. 15,33…”

Characterization of Products from Chloroform-Extracted Triassic Chang 7 Oil Shale Generated by Semiopen Pyrolysis

“…The process of generating and expelling hydrocarbon in the geological historical period takes millions of years; however, this process in in situ conversion is measured in years. According to the principle of time–temperature compensation, a thermal simulation experiment is usually performed at a high temperature to complete the decomposition process of shale in a few days or minutes. , Previous hydrocarbon generation thermal simulation experiments were mainly conducted on marine type I, marine type II, and continental type III organic matter. − Few studies have used lacustrine type II organic matter of shale as the research object of the thermal simulation experiment of hydrocarbon generation. Recently, the research of China’s terrestrial middle-low maturity shale oil has made great progress. − The Chang 7 shale is the most potential and representative for in situ conversion of shale oil in China. , The Chang 7 shale is described as containing type II kerogen and a mixture of type I and III kerogens.…”

“…Pressure cannot be normal under the conditions of in situ conversion. Shale is in a state between an open and closed system during the process of hydrocarbon generation. , The open system cannot apply pressure, and the closed system cannot realize the process of hydrocarbon expulsion. Both of them are not suitable for studying the mechanism of expelled, retained, and total generated oils produced by the Chang 7 shale under in situ conversion conditions.…”
