Multiscale Characterization of Thermo-Hydro-Chemical Interactions Between Proppants and Fluids in Low-Temperature EGS Conditions

Multiscale Characterization of Thermo-Hydro-Chemical Interactions Between Proppants and Fluids in Low-Temperature EGS Conditions

Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) require thermochemically stable proppant materials capable of sustaining fracture conductivity under harsh subsurface conditions. This study systematically investigates the response of commercial proppants to coupled thermo-hydro-chemical (THC) effects, focusing on...
