Theses and Dissertations
This collection contains theses and dissertations of graduate students of the University of Alberta. The collection contains a very large number of theses electronically available that were granted from 1947 to 2009, 90% of theses granted from 2009-2014, and 100% of theses granted from April 2014 to the present (as long as the theses are not under temporary embargo by agreement with the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies). IMPORTANT NOTE: To conduct a comprehensive search of all UofA theses granted and in University of Alberta Libraries collections, search the library catalogue at www.library.ualberta.ca - you may search by Author, Title, Keyword, or search by Department.
To retrieve all theses and dissertations associated with a specific department from the library catalogue, choose 'Advanced' and keyword search "university of alberta dept of english" OR "university of alberta department of english" (for example). Past graduates who wish to have their thesis or dissertation added to this collection can contact us at erahelp@ualberta.ca.

Application of Coagulation/Flocculation followed by Sedimentation for Treating Urban Combined Sewer Overflows
DownloadFall 2017
Combined Sewer Systems are commonplace in the United States and the major cities in Canada. These systems consist of both sanitary and stormwater lines which, when combined, create the potential for large surges of wastewater during storm conditions known as Combined Sewer Overflows (CSOs). CSOs...

Fall 2010
A study was conducted to evaluate the properties and processes influencing the rate and magnitude of volume decrease and strength gain for oil sand fine tailings resulting from a change in bitumen extraction process (caustic versus non-caustic) and the effect of adding a coagulant to caustic fine...

Spring 2015
This research aims to assist in the assessment of tailings management technologies through the development of a dynamic simulation model. The developed model (TMSim) incorporates the mine plan, various stages of dewatering including classification, pre- and post-deposition dewatering, and an...

Spring 2021
Reclamation of oil sands fluid fine tailings (FFT) is a challenge for mine operators in Alberta because of their high water content and slow self-weight dewatering. Chemical additives, including polymer flocculants, are used by operators as a treatment technology to reduce volumes and increase...
