Recovery of fluid fuels by in-situ retorting of carbonaceous deposits |
摘要 |
In-situ retorts of elongated rectangular shape in horizontal cross section are constructed in subsurface carbonaceous deposits in a plurality of parallel rows in each of which the retorts are arranged end-to-end. The rows are separated by unbroken pillars extending upwardly from rock that is not undermined or penetrated by retorts or tunnels. The ceilings of the retorts slope upwardly at an angle of at least 40 DEG with the horizontal to an apex or crown running longitudinally of the retorts to minimize the danger of roof collapse and provide a broadened pillar through which cross drifts opening into the crown of the retort extend for supplying combustion air. The crown of the ceiling is rounded to minimize concentration of the forces imposed by the overburden.
