Oil shale is one of the alternative energies and fuel solutions in Jordan because of the scarcity of conventional sources, such as petroleum, coal, and gas. Oil from oil shale reservoirs can be produced commercially by pyrolysis technology. To optimize the process, mechanisms and rates of reactions need to be investigated. Omari oil shale formation in Jordan was selected as a case study, for which no kinetic models are available in the literature. Oil shale was analyzed using the Fischer assay method, proximate analysis (moisture, volatile, and ash), gross calorific value, elemental analysis (CHNS), and X-ray fluorescence (XRF) measurements. Non-isothermal thermogravimetric analysis was applied to study the kinetic parameters (activation energy and frequency factor) at four selected heating rates (5, 10, 15, and 20 °C/min). When oil shale was heated from room temperature to 1100 °C, the weight loss profile exhibited three different zones: drying (devolatilization), pyrolysis, and mineral decomposition. For each zone, the kinetic parameters were calculated using three selected methods: integral, temperature integral approximation, and direct Arrhenius plot. Furthermore, the activation energy in the pyrolysis zone was 112–116 kJ/mol, while the frequency factor was 2.0 × 107 − 1.5 × 109 min−1. Moreover, the heating rate has a directly proportional relationship with the rate constant at each zone. The three different methods gave comparable results for the kinetic parameters with a higher coefficient of determination (R2) for the integral and temperature integral approximation compared with the direct Arrhenius plot. The determined kinetic parameters for Omari formation can be employed in developing pyrolysis reactor models.

The yield, properties and composition of soluble and insoluble (kerogen) of organic matter of oil shale from Uvurjargalant deposit of Mongolia have been investigated in this study. The study result shows that oil shale contains low amount of moisture and volatile products, while the ash yield is high (71.86 %) - which implies that most of the oil shale are minerals. The total amount of bitumens in the oil shale was very low (1.27 wt %), whereas kerogen content was 22.84 wt %, which is relatively high compared to oil shale from other deposits in Mongolia. Under IR spectral analysis and the ratio of hydrogen and carbon, the Uvurjargalant oil shale belongs to I type of oil shale. The thermogravimetric analysis showed that organic matter of oil shale decomposed at a temperature 300-750 ºC to produce gas and liquid products.
