Spring 2022
Managing fluid fine tailings (FFT) is a defining challenge of the oil sands industry in Alberta due to low solids content, and extremely slow self-weight consolidation. One technology to increase the solids content of these tailings is centrifugation to produce centrifuged fluid fine tailings...

Fall 2013
ABSTRACT This research is an experimental design and numerical analysis of a novel technique of the vacuum consolidation of Mature Fine Tailings (MFT). A meso-scale test was conducted to examine the feasibility of the MFT dewatering process. Vacuum consolidation involves applying a negative...

Stacked Deposits of Thickened and Filtered Fluid Fine Tailings Using Geotextile Tubes to Enhance Physical Stability of Reclaimed Landforms
DownloadFall 2023
Thickening tailings by adding synthetic polymer is a common practice in the mining industry. Flocculant alone in the flocculation of the oil sands' fluid fine tailings (FFT) has been used with the expectation that it would be beneficial to fine tailings particle agglomeration and dewatering....

Standardization and Testing of Embedded Plates for Design, Fabrication, and Construction Economy
DownloadSpring 2021
Embedded plates are commonly used to facilitate connecting structural steel members to reinforced concrete building elements such as walls and columns. Due to a lack of readily available industry-wide standard embedded plate designs, embedded plates are often custom designed for each project....

Start-up Analysis of a Partial Nitrification Aerobic Granular Sludge System Treating High-Strength Municipal Digestate Supernatant
DownloadFall 2023
Ammonia pollution is a growing environmental concern affecting wastewater treatment. With rising concerns about energy consumption and increasingly strict discharge regulations, mitigation of energy expenditure and maintenance of high pollutant removal efficiency have fueled advances in...

Fall 2010
This research project describes the impact resistance of masonry units bound with fibre-reinforced Type S mortars and hydraulic lime mortar. The dynamic impact factor and stress rate sensitivity were evaluated for the flexural strength of the mortar and the bond strength, and further, the pattern...

Statistical Prediction Methods for the In-Plane Shear Strength of Partially Grouted Masonry Walls
DownloadSpring 2021
The behaviour of partially grouted masonry shear walls is complex due to their anisotropic nature and the nonlinear interactions between blocks, mortar, grouted cells, ungrouted cells and steel reinforcement. Currently available code- and research-based shear strength equations give highly...

Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD):Influence of Geomechanical Processes on Absolute Permeability
DownloadFall 2013
Alberta is recognized by its vast oil sands reserves. The applications of established thermal processes, such as SAGD, are commonly required to achieve economic hydrocarbon recovery. Steam injection causes pore pressure and temperature changes that influence the reservoir geomechanical properties...
