Abstrakt: Effect of the fluid type, the conditions of the thermal decomposition (thermolysis) process, and the addition of a zeolite on the degree of kerogen conversion to liquid products have been studied. It is shown that the maximum liquid products yield is achieved during thermal decomposition of kerogen in subcritical benzene in the presence of zeolite. It is established that the use of supercritical benzene as well as supercritical water extraction can increase the oil (concentrate of hydrocarbons) content in thermolysates. The presence of zeolite during the thermolysis of kerogen in each of these media leads to an increase in the content of resins and asphaltenes. The process of thermal destruction of kerogen under supercritical conditions results in an increased content of saturated hydrocarbons (SHC) in oils. Their maximum amount is a result of kerogen thermolysis in supercritical water in the presence of a zeolite. Thermolysis of kerogen in supercritical water with the presence of a zeolite should be considered the most acceptable for obtaining the largest amount of liquid products enriched with hydrocarbons.
