Title: Magnesium Peroxide for hydraulic fracking

The majority of magnesium peroxide exported to the United States is used in the hydraulic fracturing process used to extract natural gas from shale. A small amount may also be used for soil bioremediation (to decontaminate soil). Magnesium peroxide is made by mixing magnesium oxide with hydrogen peroxide, then drying to form a powder which can be granulated. Solvay Chemicals, Inc. does not sell magnesium peroxide directly to consumers. Most magnesium peroxide is used as a destruction agent for polymers employed in the extraction of shale gas. Afterwards, the product decomposes to form magnesium hydroxide, a naturally occurring compound found in many soils.
