Fracking in the region also would threaten spills into the Little Colorado River and damage endangered species habitat. “As a retired petroleum mining engineer and local landowner, I can say that ...

Acidization, another dangerously extreme fossil fuel extraction technique, is similar to fracking but employs hydrofluoric or hydrochloric acid to dissolve rock in order to release oil and gas.

The British Columbia Energy Regulator has toughened up its oversight of "induced" seismic activity after a series of earthquakes linked to hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, in the northeastern ...

{1000} = \frac{25.0 × 0.3}{1000}\)= 0.0075 mol moles of sulfuric acid = \(\frac{0.0075}{2}\)= 0.00375 mol (as 2:1 ratio of NaOH:H 2 SO 4) Rearranging the equation above gives:\(volume = \frac ...
