“…Oil shale (also known as kerogen shale) generally refers to the fine sediments (usually shale) with large content of kerogen, so sufficient amount of oil can be fractionally distillated from it. It belongs to the solid combustible organic minerals with large ash content, usually > 40% and its general oil content is in the range of 3.0% -30% [1] . China is rich in oil shale with the national reserves of 19.9 billion t, equivalent to 47.6 billion t of shale oil, which ranks second in the world only after United States [2] .…”

Oil and gas are important energy minerals and strategic resources. Moreover, as their substitute, oil shale is the non-renewable fossil fuel resource. In this paper, regarding the oil shale of Huadian in Jilin Province as raw material, we made a research on the approaches to extracting shale oil from oil shale as well as an experimental determination on the impact of heating temperature, shale grain size and holding time.

With the shortage of energy and the rise of crude oil in the world, the development of oil shale is gaining more attention globally. To solve the problem of traditional heat conduction with low efficiency and high cost for oil shale, a new technology called radio frequency (RF) heating (microwave heating) is introduced in this paper. Radio frequency electromagnetic (microwave) can do work directly on medium molecule of oil shale and change into heat energy, the transmission of which allows both inner and outer molecules heating simultaneously without heat conduction. Meanwhile, oil shale is a poor microwave absorbing material and microwave absorbents must be added to reach pyrolysis temperature. By this means, shale oil could be heated at a higher speed and kerogen will gradually be cracked into gas and oil. Then shale oil and gas will flow into the production wells through fractures generated by heating and be pumped up to the surface.
