Robust Stochastic-Fuzzy Modelling Approach for Shale Gas Wastewater Management under Uncertainty

Abstract

18th European Meeting on Environmental Chemistry (EMEC). Poster (#23) http://emec18.eventos.chemistry.pt/In this work, a new stochastic-fuzzy-based modelling approach is introduced for the robust optimization of shale gas wastewater management under multiple sources of uncertainty. Different management alternatives are considered to deal with the wastewater produced from fracking sites (well pads), including treatment plants—composed by pre-treatment and zero-liquid discharge (ZLD) desalination units—to allow water recycling or internal reuse in shale gas operations, or final disposal in Class II saline water injection wells (i.e., conventional deep-well injection).This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme under grant agreement No. 640979
