Craig N. Eatough, Kent Hatfield, Steven Eatough Combustion Resources, Inc. Provo, Utah 30 th Oil Shale Symposium Colorado School of Mines, Golden CO October, 2010 Process Clean, Shale Oil Surface (C-SOS) Process Pilot Plant

Motor fuels can be made from oil shale with Minimal release of CO 2 to the atmosphere when using the C-SOS process Minimal water use in processing Hydrogen for energy and upgrading

Combustion Resources, Inc. facilities in Provo, Utah, USA

Demonstrate kiln operation with oil shale Demonstrate recovery section Perform parametric study for optimization Recover shale oil fractions for upgrading testing Obtain operational data for scale-up and to refine economic analysis Demonstrate process in long-term run

Perform initial check-out tests Complete parametric test plan –Shale feed rate –Kiln temperature –Kiln speed –Particle size –Sweep gas rate Analyze oil fractions for upgrading Run plant for extended period

150 tons from White River mine stockpile near Bonanza, UT Acquired through BLM and OSEC Obtained, crushed to -3/8” and shipped by Sage Geotech

ParameterValueUnits Carbon19.45wt % Hydrogen2.08wt % Nitrogen0.49wt % Oxygen15.4wt % Sulfur0.13wt % Moisture0.65wt % Heating Value2831Btu/lb Oil (Fisher Assay)29Gal/ton Oil Density0.9g/cc White River Mine Test Shale Analysis

Oil Shale Particle Size Distribution

Performed 3 check-out tests (3 tpd) Variation in kiln set point temperature Collected full system operational data using Opto 22 control system Collected different oil fractions Collected and analyzed spent shale

Collected oil from different column fractions plus product gas

Ultimate Goal: convert oil fractions to motor-ready fuels Hydrotreating testing to be performed by independent lab Collected fractions treated separately Trial catalysts being selected Current discussions with 2 catalyst suppliers

C-SOS pilot-scale facility is complete Pilot-scale check-out tests are underway with very early, preliminary data Parametric testing is planned Upgrading testing will follow Results to aid in scale-up and refining economic analysis
