The layer of shale is fractured with about a million gallons of water (about what an average golf course uses in 2 weeks, sand, and chemicals frequently found under your kitchen sink.
Fracking requires 10 gallons of clean water (no salines for example) for every gallon of oil shale. That's before the refining. Pollutants MUST be added to the water used in fracking to lubricate, fungus control, seep efficacy, etc.
The "produced water" is unredeemable. No amount of filtering and distilling can neutralize it. Thus, the frackers either sequester it in plastic lined ponds (hoping it doeswn't leak out into the nearby aquifer and poison well water) or they look for an old defunct deep oil well and pour it in there, once again hoping it doesn't leak.
Under your kitchen sink you will find a rich assortment of carcinogens and general pollutants, such as benzene, chlorines, and complex organic solvents. Would you stopper your sink then pour the junk under your sink INTO the sink and then drink that stuff for the next month?New fluids are all food grade.
BS. If you'll buy that I've got some lovely "Clean Coal" I'll sell you: it's pure white!
