Project Abstract
<p><br><br> <br><br>Oil and gas extraction provides valuable energy resources but can also negatively impact the environment if not properly managed. This project examines the various types of pollution generated during oil and gas operations and evaluates strategies to reduce environmental risks. Waste streams from drilling, hydraulic fracturing and production are investigated. Regulatory frameworks and industry best practices in major producing regions are reviewed to identify approaches that have been effective at limiting pollution. Case studies provide examples of technologies, management plans and oversight measures that have minimized impacts to air, water and land. The overall goal is to advance sustainable practices that allow energy development while protecting ecosystems and human health.<br><br><br></p>Project Overview
