The Geochemical Evolution of Oil Sands Tailings Pond Seepage, Resulting from Diffusive Ingress Through Underlying Glacial Till Sediments
DownloadFall 2012
Oil sands tailings are comprised of sands, silts, clays, and process-affected water (OSPW). The latter includes high concentrations of dissolved ions, as well as organic contaminants, making the water toxic to aquatic organisms. In Northern Alberta, tailings ponds are being constructed on...

The Impact of Semi-continuous and Alternating Microbial Feeding Patterns on Methane Yield from UASB Reactors
DownloadSpring 2023
The anaerobic treatment of wastewater is considered a promising technology for simultaneous organic matter removal and energy recovery. Compared to aerobic digestion, anaerobic digestion conserves energy and is cost-effective in handling high-strength wastewater and wastes. However, the high...

The impact of various ozone pretreatment doses on the performance of endogenous microbial communities for the remediation of oils sands process-affected water
DownloadFall 2015
In this study, the effects of different ozone pretreatment doses on the performance of endogenous microbial populations in degrading naphthenic acids (Nash and Traver) for the treatment of oil sands process-affected water (OSPW) were evaluated. The results showed that ozonation enhanced the...

The Influence of EPS Conditioning Films on Pseudomonas aeruginosa Adhesion to Solid Surfaces
DownloadFall 2010
Bacterial adhesion to inert surfaces in aquatic environments is highly dependent on the surface properties of the substratum, which could be altered significantly by the formation of conditioning films. The impacts of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) and its several representative...
