1229931-Striolo Intellectual Merit:Natural gas, an abundant resource in the United States, offers significant advantages compared to other fossil fuels in terms of both environmental impact and economic security. The technology of hydraulic fracturing, pioneered in the 1940?s, has been recently transformed, leading to the economical production of stranded natural gas. An economical and reliable source of natural gas is essential for the energy sector as well as the chemical industry. Unfortunately, the public opinion is concerned about the possibility of environmental issues that might be traced back to the unregulated practice of hydraulic fracturing. This proposal requests support to organize a two-day workshop in Washington, D.C. to identify fundamental research needs of hydraulic fracturing in the general areas of interfacial and transport phenomena that could potentially enable the sustainable deployment of shale gas extraction. Researchers from academia, industry, and government will address this topic in an open forum and provide recommendations on how to employ current and future research capabilities. Topics include: a) General observations (details concerning the fracture technology, current and future utilization of natural gas, seismic technologies to probe shale formations, the effect of carbon dioxide on rock formations, water quality where hydraulic fracturing is practiced)b) Methane hydratesc) Transport in dual-permeability mediad) Role and fate of the fracture fluids chemicalse) Thermodynamic properties of compounds used in fracture fluids, including complex mixtures containing water, natural gas, and carbon dioxidef) Water usage and disposalg) Simultaneous natural gas extraction and carbon dioxide sequestrationBroader Impacts:The primary outcomes expected from the proposed workshop are recommendations for future research needs that will benefit the economical and environmentally-benign extraction of natural gas from shale formations. This workshop will bring together scientists from industry, academia, and the government. The PI will broadcast recommendations to the community via one review article that will be submitted for publication in a scientific journal. A summary of the workshop discussion will be published on the World Wide Web. An executive report will be submitted to NSF within two months of the workshop. A detailed report will be submitted to NSF within six months from the end of the workshop.

小行星1229931-Striolo 智力优势：天然气是美国丰富的资源，与其他化石燃料相比，在环境影响和经济安全方面具有显着优势。 1940年开创的水力压裂技术？s，最近已被改造，导致搁浅天然气的经济生产。 经济可靠的天然气来源对于能源部门和化学工业至关重要。 不幸的是，公众舆论担心环境问题的可能性可以追溯到水力压裂的不受管制的做法。 本提案要求支持在华盛顿，华盛顿特区组织一次为期两天的研讨会，以确定界面和传输现象一般领域的水力压裂基础研究需求，这些研究可能有助于页岩气开采的可持续部署。 来自学术界、工业界和政府的研究人员将在一个开放的论坛上讨论这一主题，并就如何利用当前和未来的研究能力提出建议。 主题包括：（a）一般性意见（关于压裂技术、天然气的当前和未来利用、探测页岩层的地震技术、二氧化碳对岩层的影响、实施水力压裂的水质的细节）B）甲烷水合物c）在双渗透介质中的输送d）压裂液的作用和归宿e）压裂液中使用的化合物的热力学性质，包括含有水、天然气和二氧化碳的复杂混合物f）水的使用和处理g）同时进行天然气开采和二氧化碳封存更广泛的影响：拟议研讨会的主要成果是对未来研究需求的建议，这将有利于从页岩地层中经济和环境友好地开采天然气。 这次研讨会将汇集来自工业界、学术界和政府的科学家。 PI将通过一篇综述文章向社区传播建议，该综述文章将提交在科学期刊上发表。 研讨会讨论摘要将在万维网上公布。 执行报告将在研讨会后两个月内提交给NSF。 详细的报告将在研讨会结束后六个月内提交给NSF。
