摘要
由于燃料价格不断上涨,约旦的能源行业面临着巨大挑战,因此勘探当地能源资源至关重要。瓦迪塔玛德丰富的油页岩矿藏提供了一个大有可为的机会。由于此前从未对瓦迪-塔马德油页岩进行过研究,本研究将重点放在约旦马德巴附近的瓦迪-塔马德盆地,旨在利用先进的分析技术全面描述其油页岩的特征。本研究使用 X 射线衍射、傅立叶变换红外光谱、X 射线荧光、扫描电子显微镜、热重分析 (TGA) 和差示扫描量热法评估了瓦迪塔玛德油页岩的矿物学、化学和热特性。研究结果表明,方解石和石英是主要矿物,其中含有大量脂肪族、二氧化碳、羟基和羧基。元素分析突出了重要的氧化物,如 CaO 和 SiO2。费休测定结果表明,油含量为 5.3-10.1 wt%,总热值为 4.56-7.69 MJ/kg,硫含量为 1.77-2.10 wt%。根据 TGA,热解峰值温度为 432.4°C。这项研究的新颖之处在于它采用了全面的方法来描述未充分勘探的瓦迪塔玛德油页岩盆地。研究结果加深了人们对瓦迪-塔马德油页岩地质成分的了解,强调了其作为当地能源资源的潜力,为约旦的能源组合提供了宝贵的数据,并带来了经济效益。
A characterization study of Wadi Thamad oil shale: Towards a new source of energy in Jordan
Jordan's energy sector faces significant challenges due to rising fuel prices, making the exploration of local energy resources crucial. The abundant oil shale deposits in Wadi Thamad present a promising opportunity. Since Wadi Thamad oil shale has never been studied before, this research focuses on the Wadi Thamad basin near Madaba, Jordan, aiming to comprehensively characterize its oil shale using advanced analytical techniques. Using X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray fluorescence, scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and differential scanning calorimetry, this study assesses the mineralogical, chemical, and thermal properties of Wadi Thamad oil shale. The findings reveal calcite and quartz as the primary minerals, with significant aliphatic, CO2, hydroxyl, and carboxyl groups. Elemental analysis highlights essential oxides, such as CaO and SiO2. Fischer assay results indicate an oil content of 5.3–10.1 wt%, a gross-calorific value of 4.56–7.69 MJ/kg, and a sulfur content of 1.77–2.10 wt%. The peak pyrolysis temperature is 432.4°C from TGA. This research's novelty lies in its comprehensive approach to characterizing the underexplored Wadi Thamad oil shale basin. The findings enhance the understanding of Wadi Thamad's geological composition and underscore its potential as a local energy resource, contributing valuable data to Jordan's energy portfolio and offering economic benefits.
期刊介绍:
Energy Science & Engineering is a peer reviewed, open access journal dedicated to fundamental and applied research on energy and supply and use. Published as a co-operative venture of Wiley and SCI (Society of Chemical Industry), the journal offers authors a fast route to publication and the ability to share their research with the widest possible audience of scientists, professionals and other interested people across the globe. Securing an affordable and low carbon energy supply is a critical challenge of the 21st century and the solutions will require collaboration between scientists and engineers worldwide. This new journal aims to facilitate collaboration and spark innovation in energy research and development. Due to the importance of this topic to society and economic development the journal will give priority to quality research papers that are accessible to a broad readership and discuss sustainable, state-of-the art approaches to shaping the future of energy. This multidisciplinary journal will appeal to all researchers and professionals working in any area of energy in academia, industry or government, including scientists, engineers, consultants, policy-makers, government officials, economists and corporate organisations.
