Traditional ceramic proppant mainly clay and frac proppant bauxite as material preparation. Australia Ecopropp company developed a new proppant merchandise, the merchandise mainly byproducts of coal-fired power plant fly ash material prepared from. Now, this product has passed the examination of third-party organization prestige, fully meet ISO specifications.
According to reports, compared to the traditional clay-based proppant and bauxite-based proppants, fly ash-based proppant has good performance, low cost level, a significant advantage. First, the material widely origin, low prices. Ash-based proppant to coal-fired plants waste fly ash as material, origin very widespread, many regions and even free use. Second, the pressure level is high, compared to kaolin-based proppants 10000 PSI 7500 PSI and bauxite based, fly ash-based proppant pressure rating up to 14000 PSI. Third, low production costs and transportation costs. Ash-based proppant quality than the other two proppant lighter, and simple production process, the production process less chemical consumption, and therefore lower its cost of production ultralight weight and transportation costs. Fourth, the big profit space, at the same market price, ash-based proppant due to its low cost and with greater profit space.
