چکیده
The high cost of commercial active carbon has motivated the study of new adsorbents materials with the aim to reduce costs of the residuary waters treatment by means of adsorption process. Among then, the pyrolyzed oil shale has demonstrated adsorbents characteristic and has been studied as adsorbent material for organic and inorganic pollutants. In oil refineries, before deciding for the implantation of a new alternative, it must be assured which will be the operational limits of the proposal technology. In this context, the present work proposes the modeling and simulation of organic composites adsorption process in Brazilian oil shale with HSDM model by considering the adsorbent systems hydraulic behavior. The results indicate that is possible to use the oil shale adsorbent in the wastewater treatment containing composed organic and the accomplished simulation had good adherence to the real data.

Mineral surface control of organic carbon in black shale.
We show that 85% of variation in total organic carbon can be explained by mineral surface area in a black shale deposit from two locations in the late Cretaceous Western Interior Seaway, United States. This relation suggests that, as in modern marine sediments, adsorption of carbon compounds onto clay mineral surfaces played a fundamental role in the burial and preservation of organic carbon. O...

A mathematical model considering mass and momentum transfer was developed for simulation of ethanol dewatering via pervaporation process. The process involves removal of water from a water/ethanol liquid mixture using a dense polymeric membrane. The model domain was divided into two compartments including feed and membrane. For a description of water transport in ...

Nanometer-Scale Pore Characteristics of Lacustrine Shale, Songliao Basin, NE China
In shale, liquid hydrocarbons are accumulated mainly in nanometer-scale pores or fractures, so the pore types and PSDs (pore size distributions) play a major role in the shale oil occurrence (free or absorbed state), amount of oil, and flow features. The pore types and PSDs of marine shale have been well studied; however, research on lacustrine shale is rare, especially for shale in the oil gen...
