Abstract
This report summarizes the current status of methods for chemical analysis of oil shale effluents. It focuses on inadequacies in standard methods, adapted to oil shale analyses, particularly addressing needs of chemists, engineers, and biologists attempting to select an analytical scheme suitable for oil shale waste, including: sampling, analysis and quality assurance. Especially for the methods of questionable validity, the literature has been searched extensively so that alternate techniques could be included.
