wrecking the earth: fracking has grave radiation risks few talk about

Recently, the British government plans to use fracking technology in densely populated areas, and hundreds of people took to the streets to protest. Protesters point to dangerous examples in the United States, where the United States is a global leader in fracking ( Consume a lot of water) Leading to severe water crises in Arkansas, Colorado, New Mexico, Oklahoma City, Texas, Utah and Wyoming. Hydraulic fracturing involves the reduction of toxic chemicals to kilometers- Drill deep holes underground to separate gas and oil from the shale. Toxic chemicals can then float into lakes and rivers or pollute the ground. In addition, fracking produces a large amount of waste, including radioactive water, which must then be dumped somewhere. Uranium is a key element of fracturing or hydraulic fracturing and can be used with its correct name. In the real- The world version of \"traveling around the world for 80 days\" by Phineas Fogg, burning the mast and furniture of ships to make steam, the government now encourages oil and gas traders to go deep into the earth, squeeze the last ounce of oil and gas out of this poor creature. But there will be a terrible revenge. Lock in the formation in which they pump the pressurized process into, break, resulting in a huge surface area sponge, producing gas and oil, a large amount of natural uranium and its deadly daughter, RA. 226. And a large amount of radioactive alpha emission gas radon- 222, and his daughter 214, lead 210 and alpha emitter pol-210. Remember- 210 this is the material used when poisoning a few grams per million Russian agent Alexander Litvinenko Deep in the Earth, there is a lot of radioactivity, which is safe enough as long as it is not taken to the surface. The technical term is NORM ( Natural radioactive material). When it is brought to the surface, it is technically enhanced, or called TENORM, which is a serious health problem near the well and gas production sites. It\'s in the production water, oil, gas, around the production site, in groundwater, pipes and water tanks, and in your kitchen. Easy oil and gas reserves are those where there are underground reservoirs where oil and gas can be obtained by drilling into the reservoir and then pumping down to replace the oil back into the drill pipe. These are now out of use or are owned by people who control the flow and price. But there are many other deposits that, like water in a sponge, are distributed throughout the rock. Hydraulic fracturing includes any method for crushing solid rock, shale or sandstone to provide access to make it easier for oil or natural gas in the formation to be pumped to the surface. Fracking is not a new idea, but there are a number of new technologies that are being adopted that make it easy to get gas economically from rock sources that are beyond question so far. For the reasons I will outline, there are some worrying aspects to this development. The depth of the shale layer is between 1,000 and 8,000 feet. Due to the weight of the rock above, the pressure of the rock in these deep gas-containing formations is enormous. The drill must pass through the pipe (the “gun”) Along the length of the formation as long as possible, then this must become perforated along its length, and there are holes that allow gas or oil to enter the pipe and reach the surface. Hard in history However, the technology has been saved in the form of a specially designed explosive called \"shaped explosive. These are tapered. The shape-dense metal explosive device, which sends the explosive energy with a powerful metal atomic directional jet as a drill bit, melts rocks or shale along the jet length. This creates a set of radial distribution channels in and around the length of the drill pipe, shaped like a bottle-cleaning brush. Once this is done, water containing a series of acid and chemical additives is injected under great pressure, followed by small balls, sand or sand, called \"support\" like pit props in a mine \", to keep the channel formed unblocked. The extreme pressure pushes the weight of the upper rock up, releasing the tension in the gas trapped formation. It has been noted that all these effects on the physical stability of the local Deep Earth have resulted in small earth shocks and shocks that people living nearby have noticed. But the real reason for these earthquakes may be even more sinister. The metal previously used for the energy gathering head or \"gun\" is copper. This creates a pressure of 300,000 atmospheres that pushes the rock to one side through plastic deformation. But in 1984, an American patentUS 4441428) Thomas Wilson submitted a document entitled \"cone-shaped charge liner for Depleted Uranium. The patent begins: \"The invention relates to a new type of blasting device that is particularly suitable for drilling oil and gas wells. Wilson records Du is 5- In terms of the length of the jet hole, the efficiency is three times that of copper, resulting in a pressure of 600,000 atmospheric pressure. Since uranium has a greater chemical reactivity, it actually produces new compounds with materials in the rock ( Oil and Gas). DU runs through the rocks like butter, just as we think military versions of this technology installed on missiles can go through concrete reinforced bunkers. The multiple- The explosion of Poly Explosives will certainly shake the ground. Then, it is not difficult to explain the Earth\'s vibration and earthquake. Where water acid is treated, chemical compounds will eventually appear on the surface of the local aquifer in the local river. Yes. However, from the shape charge to the DU nanoparticles, it may eventually be a mixture of process water and chemicals spilling over the surface. Maybe in oil or gas. In your kitchen, no one looks, but someone should, because we know from the war in Iraq how these things affect human health. If you think this is alarmist, academic, not related to fracking, then another patent was recently filed in 2011 ( US patent 20110000669) By Burton ( Oil, Gas, weapons, missiles, Cheney) Entitled \"The perforation gun assembly and the method of controlling the wellbore pressure in the hole shooting device \". The patent specifically refers to depleted uranium. Therefore, not only is there a large amount of natural radioactive material surfaced in the natural gas or oil stream, but the production water also surfaced, and it is also possible to produce a large amount of non-natural radioactivity from the DU-shaped charge. In addition to the fact that depleted uranium is the most effective element in these shaped charged metals, let us not forget that the US nuclear industry attracts a large amount of depleted uranium, even natural uranium, and even the removal of nuclear waste. I mean, in any case, who will be studying the radioactivity in the process water, it will be the radioactivity from the daughter of Ra and radon. You need to do some complicated analysis to see if it contains any annoying people Especially nanoparticles. Who will do this? My friend Marvin Leskov raised the issue of natural radioactive and fracking gas, an expert in the specification case. He studied the fracking of shale gas exploitation in Marcellus, NY. There are two key issues, he noted. The concentration of Ra- 226 in the rock Then the length of time it takes for the gas to reach the kitchen. Half of radon. The life span is about four days, so if it takes a short amount of time for gas to go from the well production site to the consumer, then the level of the kitchen can be large. He calculated that New York would have 1,000 to 30,000 additional lung cancer due to this exposure. No one in the Environmental Protection Agency is concerned about this issue. This is certainly a concern, but there are other issues. Process Water (and chemicals) It will definitely pollute the area around the gas production machinery. In a recent court case in which I was involved in the state of Luis Anna, there was a gas distribution plant with serious radioactivity and the surrounding land with radioactivity. I also studied the well production area in a case in the Kentucky court. The process of water dissolving RA 226 This precipitate on pipes and tanks and remains on the ground near the well head and distribution facilities. The pipeline is radioactive. One of the most serious radionuclides left is lead in radon. It\'s 210 long. life (22 years) And accumulate in these cases as a fine dust. It enters the air stream in the form of nanoparticles and I believe it will remain in the air stream. It decay into bismouth- Decay immediately to 210 of alpha emitter pol-210 half- 138 days of life Hydraulic fracturing increases the amount of radon in the extracted gas. Why is it because of the high surface area created by crushing the rock. There is a big cave in a simple gas or well. Radon penetrates out of the wall, and the surface area of the wall is equal to the surface area of the cave wall. But in cracked formations, the surface area that radon can penetrate is greatly increased. Therefore, faster radon migration can occur. So my conclusion is that fracking brings some serious health issues related to radiation exposure and local contamination, as Marvin reichkov noted in his articleor at all) Environmental impact statement issued by the operator or the US Environmental Protection Agency. The wellhead and distribution area will be contaminated with radiation. Isolated wells off the southern coast of England, Texas Encouraged by Prime Minister David Cameron, Sussex\'s image will not be like a windmill. The pollution of the process water will enter the groundwater and drinking water. Let\'s not forget about depleted uranium. I do not want to deny it altogether: oil and gas are valuable resources, and technology to improve availability must be praised, even if research is conducted more cautiously than ever before. But let\'s take a step back from all this and ask what it does. The simple answer, of course, is that it\'s for money and cheaper energy, security, energy independence from the perspective of remote suppliers. But we know what it\'s really about. It is the necessary fuel for a sustained economic system, the marketforces-driven, short-attention- An ongoing global event in manufacturing, jobs, buying and selling has now become part of life. Of course, this cannot last ( Hydraulic fracturing or not) Fossil fuels (And other fuels) Eventually it will run out, and/or a limited biosphere will die from the toxic waste of activity, something that is currently happening at a terrible rate. But fracking will give them more time. When Phineas Fogg completed his \"80-day tour around the world\" trip, he was forced to burn the cabin furniture, and the ship\'s mast and other key components brought him back to the last stop, to win his bet. But in the destruction and burning of our planet, there is no bet, only the greedy and powerful individuals. We are burning our ship when we are the only time.
