A critical review of risks, characteristics, and treatment strategies for potentially toxic elements in wastewater from shale gas extraction
Shale gas extraction via horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing (HF) has enhanced gas production worldwide, which has altered global energy markets and reduced the prices of natural gas and oil. Water management has become the most challenging issue of HF, as it demands vast amounts of freshwa...
