Title: Method for extraction of hydrocarbon fuels or contaminants using electrical energy and critical fluids
Inventor: CONSIDINE BRIAN C
IPC: C07C27/10
Filed: 2011-12-19
Abstract: Abstract The extraction of hydrocarbon fuel products such as kerogen oil and gas from a body of fixed fossil fuels such as oil shale is accomplished by applying a combination of electrical energy and critical fluids with reactants and/or catalysts down a borehole to initiate a reaction of reactants in the critical fluids with kerogen in the oil shale thereby raising the temperatures to cause kerogen oil and gas products to be extracted as a vapor, liquid or dissolved in the critical fluids. The hydrocarbon fuel products or kerogen oil or shale oil and hydrocarbon gas are removed to the ground surface by a product return line. An RF generator provides electromagnetic energy, and the critical fluids include a combination of carbon dioxide (C02 ), with reactants of nitrous oxide (N20) or oxygen (02). 30330761 (GHMatters) P78167.AU.1 WO 2007/078352 PCTIUS2006/035581 19 TRANSMITTING ELECTRICAL ENERGY DOWN. 21 A BOREHOLE TO HEAT A BODY OF FIXED FOSSIL FUELS TO A FIRST PREDETERMINED TEMPERATURE 2PROVIDING CRITICAL FLUIDS WITH REACTANTS OR CATALYSTS DOWN A - BOREHOLE FOR DIFFUSION INTO A BODY OF FIXED FOSSIL FUELS AT A PREDETERMINED PRESSURE HEATING THE CRITICAL FLUIDS AND THE 25 FIXED FOSSIL FUELS WITH THE ELECTRICAL ENERGY TO A SECOND PREDETERMINED TEMPERATURE TO INITIATE REACTION OF SAID REACTANTS IN THE CRITICAL FLUIDS WITH HYDROCARBON FUEL PRODUCTS IN THE BODY OF FIXED FOSSIL FUELS RAISING THE TEMPERATURE TO CAUSE SAID HYDROCARBON FUEL PRODUCTS TO BE EXTRACTED AS A VAPOR, LIQUID, OR DISSOLVED IN THE CRITICAL FLUIDS PRESSURE IN BOREHOLE YES PRESSURE BETWEEN CYCLE 500 PSI AND REMOVING THE HYDROCARBON FUEL 29 PRODUCTS IN THE CRITICAL FLUID WITH A PRODUCT RETURN LINE EXTENDING TO A GROUND SURFACE ABOVE AN OVERBURDEN 31 SEPARATING THE CRITICAL FLUID FROM THE PRODUCTS AND RETURNING THE CRITICAL FLUIDS TO THE BOREHOLE
