Abstract
Condor oil shale, its demineralised kerogen and kerogen/kaolinite mixtures were flash pyrolysed (400–600°C; 60s) or pyrolysed in a tube furnace (25–600°C; 3°C min −1) and the 1-pristene/2-pristene ratio (1P/2P) in the pyrolysates was determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. 1P was the primary pyrolysis product and 2P was derived from it by mineral-catalysed isomerisation, with the 1P/2P ratio depending upon the residence time of the vapour in the catalyst bed. Previously unreported pristene isomers were detected.
