Abstract: The pyrolysis reactivity and kinetic characteristics of Tumuji oil sand from Inner Mongolia were investigated at heating rates of 5, 10, 20, and 40 degrees C/min in a thermogravimetric analyzer. The kinetic parameters of pyrolysis at different heating rates were determined and compared on the basis of a first-order reaction model. The effects of the temperature and pressure on conversion, liquid (oil) and gas yields, and product composition of Tumuji oil sand pyrolysis were further studied in a fixed bed reactor. The results show that all of the conversion and liquid and gas yields increase wi
