Process for the extraction of hydrocarbons from oil sands and oil shale |
摘要 |
Process for the extraction of hydrocarbons contained in oil sands and oil shale comprising feeding said oil sands or oil shale to a suitable apparatus in which they are heated, directly and/or by means of a suitable vector fluid, making use of solar energy collected by means of optical concentration systems. |

1. A process for extracting hydrocarbons contained in oil sand, the process comprising:
feeding an oil sand into a heating apparatus; and heating the oil sand within the heating apparatus, wherein the heating apparatus comprises an extraction column, wherein energy for the heating is provided directly, indirectly through a vector fluid, or both, from solar energy collected by at least one optical concentration system to form a hot vector fluid; wherein the hot vector fluid acts an extracting fluid; and wherein said extracting fluid is in a supercritical phase and the extraction can be effected by modifying the temperature and pressure conditions to achieve subcritical conditions. |
