A first important conclusion can be drawn from the composition of the individual clay minerals. In the oil industry‚ shale water content is usually determined by heating a sample to 105°C in an oven until weight stabilization. Weight loss is assumed to derive from the water leaving the sample‚ and this water is normally called free water. As illustrated on the TGA chart of montmorillonite‚ interlayer water in smectites is released at temperatures below 100°C. Shales with high smectite content‚ even

The use of hydraulic fracking has been around since the 1940’s to extract small batches of natural gas. It was not until 2003 that the fracking process started extracting large quantities of natural gas and oil. Today‚ there is major controversy over the idea that hydraulic fracturing may or may not be harmful to the earth. One side says it is safe to use hydraulic fracking‚ others state that it is dangerous to society. Many people believe fracking is harmful to the environment because it pollutes

controversial process that we use to obtain natural gas. Fracking has pros and cons like any topic‚ but what I’m trying to find is if one side drastically outweighs the other. The controversy that aspires from this topic derives from the environmental well being of our planet and the effect fracking has on it.

seem so bad‚ but the chemicals that make up the other 0.5% could possibly be deadly. A few of the chemicals used are household items like sodium chloride‚ guar gum‚ and borate salt(Dong). Fracking requires up to 5 million gallons of water per well and perhaps even more in which case‚ the tons of water used would create a huge demand of local water supplies (Dong). Unlike agriculture or domestic water uses‚ gas drilling does not return the used water back into in the ground (Myers). The water
