To increase the efficiency of fracturing process, proppant materials are added to fracking fluid. This admixture allows to keep developed fracks, that tend to lock, opened. The aim of this overview is to present methods of carbon dioxide and proppant mixing. The most often applied methods are as follows: special medium admixing, direct proppant with CO2 mixing. Liquid CO2 and proppant blenders are currently commercially used, but are not very popular.
