Hydraulic Fracking of Coal

Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2017
This study assesses the overall technical, economic, environmental, and social costs and benefits of the hydraulic fracturing (“fracking”) of natural gas. Drawn from a review of more than 100 studies looking at shale gas in the past 10 years, most of them peer-reviewed, this article begins by briefly explaining the process of hydrofracking and ...

To frack or not to frack: Perceptions of the risks and opportunities of high-volume hydraulic fracturing in the United States

Energy Research & Social Science, 2016
Abstract Although proponents praise natural gas as a clean and abundant energy source, the varying impacts and uncertainties surrounding the process of extracting natural gas from unconventional sources, known as horizontal high-volume hydraulic fracturing (HVHF) or “fracking,” have raised important concerns.

The Effect of Changes in Hydraulic Fracking Fluid Chemistries on the Dissolution Rate of Dissolvable Magnesium Frack Plug Components

SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 2019
Abstract Objectives/Scope: The use of dissolvable metal technologies for use in downhole tools for the hydraulic fracking industry has expanded rapidly over the last few years. The dissolution rate of these alloys is known to be sensitive to the chemistry of the fracking fluids used.

What the Frack? Development of the Controversy About Hydraulic Fracking for Shale Gas in the Netherlands

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2013
In 2009 Cuadrilla, a gas drilling company requested a permit for a test drilling for shale gas in the community of Boxtel, the Netherlands. At that point Cuadrilla already received a concession of the national government for drilling at several places.

Quantifying source contributions of volatile organic compounds under hydraulic fracking moratorium

Science of The Total Environment, 2020
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are precursors for ozone (O3) and secondary particulate matter, which contribute to asthma and cardiovascular diseases. With the technology development of hydraulic fracking, the United States experienced a shale gas boom in the last decade while the public raised concerns about the potential health impacts of co ...

Hydraulic fracturing and social media: getting the ?fracking? message across

2016
Hydraulic fracturing, or ?fracking,? has gained prominence in past decades with an intense public relations battle between supporters and opponents. While one group highlights benefits, the other focuses on exposing concerns, but both attempt to drive discussion, shape public opinion and influence national policy. ?

Fracking or Hydraulic Fracturing: How Media Shapes Public Perception and Regulatory Process

SPE Western Regional Meeting, 2015
Abstract Bans or moratoria on hydraulic fracturing are in place or being considered worldwide. In large part, these actions stem from relatively data-free media presentations of risks associated with hydraulic fractions. Our objective is to analyze the influence of media and public perceptions in shaping policy related to hydraulic ...
