Solvent retrieval and wettability alteration during heavy-oil and bitumen recovery by SOS-FR (steam-over-solvent injection in fractured reservoirs) method
DownloadFall 2014
Mohammed, Mohammedalmojtaba Y.S.
Water injection is inefficient to recover heavy oil from naturally fractured carbonate reservoirs mainly due to its oil-wet nature of the matrix. Solvent injection could be an option in this type of reservoir through dilution of oil and gravity drainage. This, however, will only be feasible if...

Sorption Behavior of Trace Organic Chemicals on Nanoplastics and their Implications on Co-contaminant Transport
DownloadFall 2023
Nanoplastics are plastic fragments less than 1000 nm and are a growing concern within the plastic pollution crisis. They have distinct properties that differ from bulk plastics because of their size, large surface area-to-volume ratio, and their potential to disrupt biological processes once...

In the past few decades, there have been more extreme climate events occurring worldwide, constituting a growing risk for our societies. For example, Canada has experienced several extreme precipitation events that resulted in billions of dollars of damage, such as the flood events of Calgary and...

Spatial heterogeneity is an important characteristic of large-scale composting, however, only a few spatial models for composting exist to date. In this thesis, a novel spatial model for composting is developed. The model is applicable for any one-, two-, or three-dimensional pile geometry. It...

Evaluating the resource contained in a precious metals deposit is a challenging task because they are often characterized by heavily-skewed grade distributions and outlier values. Traditional geostatistical modelling methods are difficult to apply in the presence of outlier values because they...

Mine waste rock material has the potential to generate acid rock drainage (ARD) through the oxidation of sulphide minerals. Waste rock is one of the most abundant materials at mine sites that must be managed appropriately to limit the generation of ARD and other harmful by-products; therefore,...

Spatial variations of total and dissolved trace elements and their distributions amongst major colloidal forms along and across the Lower Athabasca River
DownloadFall 2020
The Athabasca River (AR) is the longest river in Alberta with a wide variety of natural and potential anthropogenic inputs. The purpose of this study was to quantify the spatial variation of trace element (TE) concentrations and forms in this aquatic system. Water samples were gathered along a...
