Abstract

This report summarizes the material and energy requirements and preliminary economics for conventional and high temperature gas-cooled reactor -integrated processes that recover oil from oil shale, desalinate seawater, and upgrade bitumen to synthetic crude oil. Also included are summaries of other industrial processes that were briefly evaluated, which included processes to produce metallurgical coke and steel. The appendices include more detailed technical analyses for each of the processes. This report updates a prior similar report (INL 2010) by summarizing the additional work accomplished in FY 2011.
