- icegreentea 13y agoWell, here it is: http://fracfocus.org/chemical-use/what-chemicals-are-used http://fracfocus.org/chemical-use/what-chemicals-are-used The chemicals used. Right there. Mine you, they don't tell you the percent compositions - I think that's fair. You can be fairly sane limits when you combine with the claim that fracking liquid is 98% water. If you think they're lying... well... better tell the 21+ states that have mandatory disclosure laws.
- Amadou 13y agoSeems that the fracfocus list is incomplete. Looking at Haliburton's own listen of chemicals in their CleanStim fluid, I see maltodextrin listed but it isn't listed on fracfocus. I'm not enough of a chemical engineer to say if there is another name for maltodextrin that is listed, but I didn't find any hits for "mal," "dext" or "trin" either. http://www.halliburton.com/public/projects/pubsdata/Hydraulic_Fracturing/disclosures/CleanStim_Pop_up.html http://www.halliburton.com/public/projects/pubsdata/Hydrauli...
