Natural gas pressure of mining fissure

Because in the process of exploitation of natural gas, salt and sand attached in the water, leading to salty and muddy difficult to re-use. People often in the publicwastewater treatment plant worn surface treatment fracturing residual water, rather than through injection well underground recovery or disposal, is most common inthroughout the Northeast America Marcellus shale, and the origin of this point is also the fracturing of the debate.

In order to reduce the risk of fracture, and reduce the exploitation ceramic proppants of worry,Professor Reible points out that we must do two things: first, the drilling operationmust strictly implement best practices for the industry; second, must be coordinated,reused or re injection water in the more well, or improve surface treatment. Butresearchers at Cockrell School of engineering is committed to the innovation and the cooperation work.
