2 Backgroung and Introduction Shale formations are characterized by a small porosity and low permeability* that trap hydrocarbons in the rocks. Hydraulic fracturing increases the extremely low permeability of shale rocks to enable the economic production of shale gas and shale oil**. - Water What is the fate of NORMs in the environment? in Fracfluid: - Proppant (sand) - Chemicals Schematic representation of shale gas extraction*** Flowback fluid: - Water - Chemicals - Gas/oil Atomistic computational modeling of fluid-rock interactions * Ho TA, Striolo A. AIChE Journal, 61, 2993 (2015) ** Yethiraj A, Striolo A. J. Phys. Chem. Lett., 4, 687 (2013) *** - Naturally occurring radioactive materials (NORMs) The are several environmental issues related to shale gas exploration/extraction, including NOMRs and their fate as they could be released in the process out 2
3 Mineral Composition of Some European Shales Clay Pyrite Feldspar Quartz Carbonates Organic matter Bowland shale (UK) Alum shale (Denmark)* Dotternhausen shale (Germany)* Wickensen shale (Germany)* Harderode shale (Germany)* Haddessen shale (Germany)* Clay minerals are one of the primary components of most shales Because of their adsorption and retention properties, they can play a crucial role in the confinement of NORMs that could be released in the context of fracking * Rybacki et al. J. Petrol. Sci. Eng., 135, 702 (2015) 3
4 Basic Structure and Composition of Clay Minerals Clay minerals are layered aluminosilicates, with properties changing as a function of their atomic structure and composition Clay fractions of shales predominately contain kaolinite, smectite, and illite Montmorillonite (smectite) - moderate layer charge Kaolinite - no layer charge Muscovite (illite) high layer charge O T T O T Si 8 Al 8 O 20 (OH) 16 (Si 7.75 Al 0.25 )Al 3.5 Mg 0.5 O 20 (OH) 4 Na 0.75 (Si 6 Al 2 )Al 4 O 20 (OH) 4 K 2 4
5 Principal Tool: Molecular Dynamics Simulations Numerically solve Newtonian equation of motion for N interacting particles: ri(t+ t) = ri(t) + vi(t) t + ½ ai(t) t2 ; t ~ 1 fs = s ai = Fi/m = [ - U(r1,r2,... rn) / ri ] / m ; i=1, 2,, N (N ~ atoms) U = SSUij = SS(Aij/rij12 - Bij/rij6 + qiqj /e0rij) + S ½kb (rij - r0)2 + S ½kq (qij - q0)2 Short-range repulsion v-d-waals Coulombic bond stretching bond bending Time averaging over a dynamic trajectory of the simulated system Periodic boundary conditions (PBC) 5
6 MD Modeling of Clays and Clay-Related Materials Non-trivial problems 1 m Poorly characterized structure and composition Low symmetry, high degree of compositional disorder Large unit cells, stacking disorder Strong local electrostatic fields due to site substitutions Need for special force-field parameterization for realistic modeling ClayFF - specialized semi-empirical fully flexible force field model Allows for realistic modeling of exchange of momentum and energy among all atoms solid substrate and aqueous solution Based on accurate theoretical models of oxides, hydroxides, silicates, etc. Combines well with other available force fields for organic-inorganic systems Cygan, Liang, Kalinichev (2004) J.Phys.Chem. B, 108, Special focus: real-life complexity of shale rock mineral components on the atomic scale 6
7 Partial Charges based on ClayFF Parameterization Accurate determinations of partial charges are required to represent charge distributions of interlayer and external surfaces where electrostatic forces control sorption and transport processes Atomic charges derived from DFT/GGA calculations for cluster and periodic models of simple oxides and hydroxide phases Allow for charge delocalization among coordinating oxygens for substitutions T Al Al Si Mg O T Cygan, Liang, Kalinichev (2004) J.Phys.Chem.

13 Atomic Density Profiles: Montmorillonite Substitutions sites are accessible to solution (surface 1) Substitution sites are not accessible to solution (surface 2) Cation exchange between interfacial Ba2+ and interlayer Na+ ions is quite strong 75% of Ba2+ ions initially in the interfacial region enter the interlayers 13
14 Atomic Density Profiles: Montmorillonite Surface 1 Surface 2 The 25% of Ba2+ ions remaining in the interfacial region are in a outer sphere coordination Most of the Na+ ions leaving the interlayer region accumulate near surface 1, preventing Sr2+/Ba2+ ions to closely approach that surface Two Na+ peaks on surface 1: the 1st around 2.0 Å and the 2nd around 3.0 Å Two types of inner sphere adsorption configurations 14

18 Muscovite (010) Edge Surfaces Muscovite: 96 ([Si6Al2][Al4]O19.5(OH)5(H2O)0.5K2) 29 Å 41 Å 103 Å substitutions sites are accessible to solution (surface 1) Substitution sites are not accessible to solution (surface 2) Simplified fluid composition 1480 H2O 6 NaCl ( 0.1M) 4 SrCl2/BaCl2 ( 0.07M) 18
19 Atomic Density Profiles: Muscovite Surface 1 Ba2+ Surface 2 Most of the K+ ions leaving the interlayer region accumulate near surface 1 This prevents Na+ and Ba2+ to closely approach that surface The smaller concentration of K+ ions on surface 2 allows Na+ and Ba2+ to come closer, but Ba2+ is still in OS coordination 19
20 Atomic Density Profiles: Muscovite Surface 1 Sr2+ Surface 2 All K+ ions leaving the interlayer region accumulate near surface 1, this prevents Na+ and Sr2+ to closely approach that surface Hence Na+ and Sr2+ are found near surface 2, in both IS (peak around 2.5 Å) and OS (peak around 3.5 Å) coordination 20

24 Atomic Density Profiles: Kaolinite The first Ba2+/Sr2+ peak is in the range 5-6 Å from the surface (around 2.5 Å for muscovite when there is no screening effects of K+ ions) Inner-sphere complexation is observed for Na+ (1st peak around 3 Å) H (edge OH O (edge OH) Na+ x (Å) y (Å) Similar types of adsorption sites as presented for montmorillonite and muscovite 24

26 Conclusions and Outlook Significant cation exchange between interfacial Sr2+/Ba2+ and interlayer Na+ ions in the (010) montmorillonite system Effect of substitution location : On surface 1 (substitutions accessible to solution), the adsorbed ions sit near the Al/Si tetrahedral substitutions but avoid the Mg/Al octahedral substitutions (present in montmorillonite) The Na+ and K+ ions dissociating from the interlayers of montmorillonite and muscovite accumulate on surface 1 pushing then the other ions to surface 2 (substitutions not accessible to solution) On surface 2 (substitutions not accessible to solution), Na+ ions are mostly found near the internal Mg/Al substitutions in montmorillonite Two types of inner sphere complexation with the (010) edges of kaolinite, montmorillonite and muscovite: The cation (Na+/K+/Sr2+/Ba2+) occupy an octahedral vacancy, interacting with 2 Al-O-H groups or 2 Al-O-H groups and 1 Si-OH group The cation (Na+/K+/Sr2+/Ba2+) sit in the tetrahedral layer, interacting with 1 Al-O-H group and 1 Si-O-H group Site-specific adsorption free energy profiles are now being calculated for the identified sites to quantitatively evaluate their adsorption strength and cation exchange capabilities 26
