Guar gum needs to be thin enough to make it easier to pump. Then as it flows down the pipe, the fluid needs to gel up to support the proppant and flush it deep into the fractures. After that process, the gel has to break down so we can flow back and recover the fracking fluid, but leave the proppant behind. This requires a chemical process which produces then breaks the gel cross-linking at a predictable rate. Guar+boron+proprietary chemicals can accomplish both of these goals at once. Guar gum retards ice crystal growth nonspecifically by slowing mass transfer across the solid/liquid interface.
Hydrochloric acid regeneration a combination of wet scrubbers such as venturi scrubbers (IX) and scrubber columns (X), remaining traces of HCl and dust are removed. In some plant, absorption chemicals such as NaOH and NaSO are used to bind HCl and Cl (which is created under certain circumstances in several, but not all spray roasting reactors). Pyrohydrolysis based acid regeneration processes produce a considerable amount of stack emissions containing HCl, particles and chlorine, which has led to numerous violations of the U.S. clean air act in the past. Hydrochloric acid regeneration Hydrochloric acid regeneration or HCl regeneration refers to a chemical process for
