| Popis: | Oil shale from the Kerosene Creek Member of the Stuart oil shale deposit was successfully dried from 20.1 to 3% free moisture, as required using an existing countercurrent rotary dryer. Both the flue gas and product solids streams were monitored for hydrocarbon loss, and no loss was detected. Throughputs of 27 tonnes h − 1 were achieved and negligible size degradation was observed. This paper describes operating conditions and provides valuable scaleup information. |
