Introduction: Hydraulic fracturing is the process in which a mixture of chemicals and water are used in combination to stimulate wells and expose minerals that previously would have been much too expensive to access using tradition methods. With the process comes some detrimental environmental consequences‚ like water contamination‚ due to the chemicals used in the liquid mixture. According to an Earthworks article‚ only 0.5 to 2.0% of the “frack fluid” volume content is made up of chemicals‚ which

How Much Gas is Produced? Julie Dang June 23‚ 2013 Purpose The Company ABC Chemical has asked our group to investigate the gas production from a number of various chemical reactions. The company would like us to measure the amount of product we get when we measure the amount of gas from two reactions. We will then compare our data to the predicted amount which will we will calculate based of the Law of conservation of Mass and Ideal Gas Laws. Methods Materials Thermometer CaCO3

which would relate to the topic of Hydraulic Fracturing. What is Hydraulic Fracturing you may say? According to Propublica.org‚ Hydraulic Fracturing is the process used in 9 out of 10 natural gas wells in the United States‚ Where millions of water‚ sand and chemicals are pumped underground to break apart the rock and release the gas. The main purpose for Hydraulic Fracturing is due to its inexpensive extraction. Over the past decade‚ the combination of Hydraulic Fracturing and horizontal drilling

industry. Hydraulic fracturing is the process by which natural gas is extracted from the earth’s shales. The process begins with drilling through several layers of the earth‚ like the freshwater aquifer. Next‚ water with “fracking fluid” is injected into the drilled area to crack the shale. This water comes back up to the surface and is put into a pit to evaporate. The natural gas flows up‚ and is then stored. The process is simple enough‚ but so are the consequences. Hydraulic fracturing has
