Effect of Diluent Levels on Greenhouse Gases and Reduced Sulfur Compound Emissions from Oil Sands Tailings
DownloadSpring 2016
A well-known issue of tailings is that they have poor consolidation properties, which, in situ, may require several decades or more before the material can be reclaimed. With the accumulation of tailings in the tailings ponds, one unintended consequence of this long-term storage is the evolution...

Methanogenesis in oil sands tailings: an analysis of the microbial community involved and its effects on tailings densification
DownloadSpring 2010
Densification of tailings slurries to mature fine tailings (MFT) is important in the oil sands industry for tailings inventory reduction, pore water recovery and tailings reclamation. The cause of methane release from the tailings pond of Shell Albian Sands (Albian) and the effects this process...
