Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

EC number: 297-648-1 | CAS number: 93685-99-5 Oil shale waste is produced by thermal processing in a fluidized bed process at 800°C from mining exhausted oil shale. Oil shale waste consists essentially of Al2O3, CaO, CaSO4, Fe2O3 and SiO2.

Description of key information
Additional information
The composition, physical and chemical properties of oil shale thermal processing residue are variable. This arises principally from the raw materials and from the combustion and abatement technologies used. Based on the chemical nature of oil shale thermal processing residue (inorganic structure and chemical stability of the main compound: Si-O bond is highly stable), neither photo- or chemical degradation, nor biodegradation (due the absence of carbon atoms within the constituents of the UVCB) is expected. Therefore, degradation is considered negligible.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
