Standard Operating Procedures for Analysis of Naphthenic Acids from Oil Sands Process-Affected Water
Download2014-12-08
Mahdavi, H., Hepperle, S., Burkus, Z., Mian, H.
Naphthenic acids (NAs) are considered the main source of chronic and acute toxicity in oil sands process-affected water (OSPW). The purpose of this investigation is to establish elements of a standard procedure to determine and minimize the amount of NA loss during storage, sample preparation...
