ABSTRACT:
A method for reducing the nitrogen content of shale oil is disclosed. The method comprises distilling shale oil to form a distillate containing lighter shale oil compounds and a residue containing heavier compounds. Nitrogen-containing compounds are extracted from the distillate to form a first nitrogen-lean raffinate and a first nitrogen-rich extract. Nitrogen-containing compounds are also extracted from the residue to form a second nitrogen-lean raffinate and a second nitrogen-rich extract. The second nitrogen-lean raffinate is hydro-treated to further reduce its nitrogen content.
