NEW METHOD AND ARRANGEMENT FOR FEEDING CHEMICALS INTO A HYDROFRACTURING PROCESS AND OIL AND GAS APPLICATIONS

摘要

A method of rapidly and essentially simultaneously creating and feeding a dispersion into a hydrocarbon process stream. This method allows for the effective use of chemical additives in a hydrocarbon process line that are highly unstable or that are very difficult to disperse. This is especially helpful in hydrofracturing operations as the very rapid flow rates require very fast dispersion formations. As a result the method allows greater fracking pressures which can be obtained with lower energy inputs and by using lessor amounts of chemical additives. As a result hydrocarbon extraction can be accomplished in a manner which is both more environmentally friendly as well as less expensive.
