Additives and Fluids in Fracking: Traditional vs. Green Solutions
Traditional Additives and Fluids in Fracking: Contaminants and Hazards In conventional fracking operations, a variety of chemical additives and fluids are employed to enhance the extraction process. One of the primary additives used is hydrochloric acid, which serves to dissolve minerals and initiate fissures in the rock formation. This is crucial for increasing the permeability… Continue reading Additives and Fluids in Fracking: Traditional vs. Green Solutions
Why the aloe is a good gelling agent for hydraulic fracturing jobs?
Why the aloe is a good gelling agent for hydraulic fracturing jobs? Aloe vera is a good gelling agent for hydraulic fracturing jobs because it is: Aloe vera has been used as a gelling agent for hydraulic fracturing jobs since the early 2000s. It is a relatively new alternative to the more traditional gelling agents, such as guar… Continue reading Why the aloe is a good gelling agent for hydraulic fracturing jobs?
Green Additives are the Best Option for Fracturing Fluids
Green Additives are the Best Option for Fracturing Fluids It is well known that most of the additives used in fracturing fluids are very harmful and pollutant, with adverse consequences on the environment. Chemicals used in the hydraulic fracturing fluids are intended to treat adequately the producing formation. But as you know, most of those chemicals and compounds are… Continue reading Green Additives are the Best Option for Fracturing Fluids
