Novel feed enzyme delivery method: Binding exogenous feed enzymes to Bacillus spores to improve enzyme stability and total tract digestibility
DownloadFall 2018
The effects of binding feed enzymes to Bacillus subtilis (strain RK28) spores on enzyme stability and digestion in cattle were studied in comparison to unbound enzymes. Optimal conditions for adsorbing six different enzymes (α-amylase, β-glucanase, feruloyl esterase, phytase, purified xylanase,...

Observations on the dispersal of saline groundwater in the Beaver Creek Diversion system, 1976-1978
Download1979
Killworth, P.D., Carmack, E.C.
The dispersal of saline groundwater in the Beaver Creek Diversion System is described using data from a two-year physical limnology monitor of the system. Emphasis is placed on processes influencing temporal and spatial patterns in circulation, stratification and saline water distributions....

Patterns of stream temperature and the influence of groundwater in northern Rocky Mountain watersheds
DownloadFall 2023
Stream temperature is an important water quality parameter linked to biotic and abiotic processes that influence the abundance and distribution of aquatic organisms. Stream temperatures can be highly variable through space and time and are determined by energy flux processes. Key energy flux...

Penetration of polyelectrolytes into charged poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) microgel layers confined between two surfaces
Download2013-01-01
Islam, Molla R., Serpe, Michael J.
pH and temperature sensitive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (pNIPAm) microgel-based etalons were fabricated by sandwiching a “monolithic” microgel layer between two semitransparent, 15 nm Au layers. The devices exhibit visual color and multipeak reflectance spectra, both of which primarily depend on...

Phase Behavior, Adsorption Behavior and Interfacial Properties of Fluids in Shale Reservoirs
DownloadFall 2018
Shale oil/gas resources are becoming an increasingly important energy resource. Compared to conventional reservoirs, shale generally consists of a large proportion of organic matters. Organic matter is mainly comprised of kerogen, within which a significant amount of nanopores may reside. Due to...

Physical and Hydrological Characteristics of Ponds in Reclaimed Upland Landscape Settings and Their Impact on Agriculture Capability
Download1990
Pigot, M. E., Macyk, T. M., Moran, S. R., Trudell, M. R.
In 1985, a one hectare pond developed in the upland reclaimed landscape at Vesta Mine in an area where extensive ponding had not previously been observed. Because of the thickness of the spoil, about 20 to 25 m, and the proximity to the active pit, a few hundred metres, it was inferred that the...

Trudell, M. R., Cheel, D. B., Moran, S. R., Macyk, T. M.
Between 1979 and 1988, the Plains Hydrology and Reclamation Project (PHRP) investigated interactions of groundwater, soils, and geology as they affect successful reclamation of surface coal mines in the plains of Alberta. The overall goal of PHRP was: (1) to predict the long-term success and the...

Moran, S. R., Trudell, M. R., Macyk, T. M.
This is one of a series of reports that presents the findings of the Plains Hydrology and Reclamation Project (PHRP), an interdisciplinary study that focuses primarily on hydrologic aspects of the reclamation of surface coal mines in the Plains of Alberta. The focus of the PHRP is to develop a...

Production and Application of Different Waste-derived Sustainable Materials for the Removal of Naphthenic Acids Related to Oil Sands Process Water
DownloadSpring 2024
Oil sands process water (OSPW) is generated in a large volume during the bitumen extraction process from the oil sands. Naphthenic acids (NAs) are recalcitrant compounds that contribute to the toxicity of OSPW, which need effective treatment before being released into the environment. In the...
