Fall 2013
Wildfires affect boreal forest carbon stocks through consumption of the vegetation and forest floor, and production of black carbon (BC). This by-product of organic matter’s incomplete combustion is an important component of the global soil carbon pool. My thesis reveals how fire severity is...

Breaking with tradition: Fischer—Tropsch gas loops and modelling vapor—liquid—liquid equilibrium
DownloadFall 2015
Fischer—Tropsch gas loops have been in use for nearly a century, producing synthetic fuels and petrochemicals. Yet there still remain many opportunities to expand its uses, update the gas loop with new technology, as well as better understand at a fundamental level the way the products behave....

Spring 2013
20Cr-32Ni-1Nb stainless steel alloys are commonly used in hydrogen reformer manifolds for transporting hot hydrogen by-products at 750-950 celcius. After long periods of exposure, embrittling secondary carbides and intermetallic phases can precipitate at the grain boundaries which can drastically...

Characterization and Functional Beverage Development using Coenzyme Q10-Impregnated Beta-glucan
DownloadSpring 2017
Pressurized gas-expanded liquid (PGX) technology is a supercritical fluid technique used for producing micro/nano-particles, agglomerates and fibers from an aqueous solution of a high molecular weight biopolymer, which can also be employed for encapsulation or impregnation. PGX-processed...

Characterization of a landslide-prone glaciolacustrine clay from the Thompson River Valley near Ashcroft, British Columbia
DownloadFall 2017
Several large landslides have occurred in the Thompson River Valley near Ashcroft, British Columbia. The movement of these landslides have presented challenges for the operation of the two national railways that traverse this valley. The landslides are multiple retrogressive, translational,...

Characterization of magnetic nanoparticles as contrast agents and their application for quantitative magnetic susceptibility monitoring of the waterflooding of heavy oil in real time
DownloadSpring 2018
Waterflooding is one enhanced oil recovery process used in heavy oil reservoirs such as at Cold Lake in North-Eastern Alberta. However, little has been published in terms of imaging heavy oil waterfloods, mainly due to the similar densities of water and heavy oil, which makes it difficult to...

Characterization of mature fine tailings in the context of its response to chemical treatment
DownloadFall 2010
Continuous accumulation of Mature Fine Tailings (MFT) is a major challenge to oil sands industry. To reduce the inventory of MFT through development of novel tailings treatment technologies, it is essential to understand the stabilization mechanism of fine solids in MFT. This project aims at...

Characterization of natural zeolite membranes for H2/CO2 separations by single gas permeation
DownloadFall 2011
Hoseinzadeh Hejazi, Sayed Alireza
Membrane-based processes have the potential to overcome the limitations of conventional hydrogen separation techniques such as high energy consumption and environmental concerns. Natural zeolite membranes have recently been shown to demonstrate apparent molecular sieving of H2 from H2/CO2...
