Abstract
The compactness of the oil shale reservoir and the complexity of the pore structure lead to the secondary reaction of kerogen in the process of hydrocarbon expulsion, which reduces the effective recovery of shale oil. In this paper, supercritical carbon dioxide was used as a heat carrier and a displacement medium. In a self-designed fluidized bed experimental system for pressure-controlled pyrolysis of oil shale, the experiments of oil shale pyrolysis under standard atmospheric pressure and 7.8-8.0 MPa pressure in nitrogen and carbon dioxide atmospheres were completed. The extraction efficiency of supercritical carbon dioxide at low temperature is obvious, but with the increase of temperature, the effect of extraction on pyrolysis is lower than that of temperature. Under a nitrogen atmosphere, the secondary reaction of shale oil is mainly secondary pyrolysis and aromatization. However, in a supercritical carbon dioxide atmosphere, the main reactions are secondary addition and aromatization. In addition, compared with that in the standard atmospheric pressure, it was found that the olefin synthesis reaction was obviously inhibited under a high-pressure nitrogen or supercritical carbon dioxide atmosphere.
