Accelerated Dewatering and Drying Treatment of Oil Sands Tailings by Electrical Resonant Auto-Transformer
DownloadFall 2014
Canada has world’s third largest oil reserves in the form of oil sands and 20% of those are easily accessible by surface mining. The hot water bitumen extraction process has been used since 1967 and the process produces vast amount of tailings which are stored in ponds. Tailings ponds pose a...

An investigation into the Development of Ceramic Sorbents for High Temperature Air Separation for OxyFiring
DownloadSpring 2014
Oxyfuel combustion as one of the alternatives to post-combustion carbon capture technologies requires an economically viable oxygen supply system. Cryogenic air separation, the main currently available technology, consumes above 30% of the energy produced as it involves separation of nitrogen...
