Degradation of Combustible Shale Kerogen from the Dmitrievskoe Deposit by Ozonolysis

摘要

The process characteristics and the composition of products of the ozonolytic degradation of combustible shale kerogen from the Dmitrievskoe deposit (Kuznetsk Basin) in chloroform were studied. The soluble products of combustible shale ozonization mainly consisted of aliphatic C_9-C_(22) «-monocarboxylic and C_2-C_(11)dicarboxylic acids. Among the constituents of water-insoluble products, C_7-C_(25) higher fatty acids were predominant with an impurity of unsaturated and aromatic compounds.
