Purpose: The aim of this work was to elaborate composition and preparation method of ceramic granulates. In this paper results of properties studies of obtained proppants are presented. Design/methodology/approach: The properties: bulk density, roundness coefficient, grain size and also structure and morphology of proppants were investigated by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) with Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS). The results indicate that composition of raw materials and type of binder have an essential effect on proppants properties in green state. Findings: The influence of polymeric binder was examined. Two types of green proppants obtained in spray dryer without binder and with poly(vinyl alcohol) in amount of 5 wt. % with respect to the powder were tested. Research limitations/implications: The main limitations are: proppants compositions and complex process to produce of them in spray dryer. Due to processing requirements and conditions in formations, proppants should be characterized by suitable physico-mechanical properties. Practical implications: Proppants are ceramic materials applied in hydraulic fracturing during extraction of shale gas. Granulates pumped with liquid into the deposit cause destruction of the rock structure. The role of proppants is to avoid closing of formed pores and as result enable gas migration from the deposit. Ceramic proppants have been produced by the spray drying method with the use of naturally occurring raw materials i.e. clay, bauxite and kaolin Originality/value: This is one of first research to preparing ceramic proppants in spray dryer using developed slurries contains Polish raw materials. The presented method for the preparation of ceramic proppants is an alternative technique in relation to the mechanical granulation.
