Abstract: A method for remediating Frac water and other emulsions created during hydraulic fracturing includes storing contaminated Frac water in a first collection unit, operating at least one pumping unit to pump a portion of the contaminated Frac water, and storing remediated Frac water in a second collection unit. A microwave separation technology (“MST”) unit, an ultra-violet light remediation (“UVLR”) unit, and a chemical additive unit are used to reduce contamination levels of the contaminated Frac water. The MST unit can work alone, or in combination with the UVLR unit, the chemical additive unit, or both, to further reduce contamination levels of the contaminated Frac water. A system operating according to the method can be deployed at an onsite drilling facility or at a centralized offsite location. By reusing remediated Frac water, entities can realize significant cost savings and better environmental compliance.

Abstract: Described is an improved method and system for remediating Frac water and other emulsions created during hydraulic fracturing. The system can include a first collection unit adapted to store contaminated Frac water, at least one pumping unit adapted to pump a portion of the contaminated Frac water, and a second collection unit for storing remediated Frac water. The system can further include a microwave separation technology (“MST”) unit, an ultra-violet light remediation (“UVLR”) unit, and a chemical additive unit adapted to reduce contamination levels of the contaminated Frac water.
