Application of Ozone and Peroxone Processes for Naphthenic Acids Degradation in Oil Sands Process-Affected Water: Characterization of Water Before and After Treatment
DownloadFall 2017
Appling ozone (O3) with high doses (>100 mg/L) to remove naphthenic acids (NAs) from oil sands process-affected water (OSPW); limits its application and feasibility in the OSPW remediation. To decrease the required doses and their associated costs, this study examined the application of ozone...

Biochar for Saline-Sodic Soil Reclamation, Phosphorus Retention, and Crop Growth Improvement
DownloadSpring 2018
Biochar incorporation into soils influences many of the soilâs physical/chemical properties. The potential of using biochar for reclamation of saline-sodic soils is not well evaluated. Furthermore, how salinity would influence Phosphorus (P) sorption capacity of biochar is not clear. The main...

Carbon and Nitrogen Mineralization and Microbial Succession in Oil Sands Reclamation Soils Amended with Pyrogenic Carbon
Download2014-12-31
Mackenzie, M.D., Lanoil, B., Hofstetter, S., Hatam, I.
Land reclamation of oil sands disturbed boreal forests in Alberta is a challenging task facing companies with surface mine leases. The government requires reclamation to equivalent land capability, which is a vague statement at best. Agronomic theories and methodologies have been applied in the...

Cation exchange due to the diffusion of ammonium from livestock effluent through glacial clay soils
Download2007
Abstract: The objective of this study was to experimentally simulate interactions between liquid manure and soil in diffusion-dominant areas beneath earthen manure storage (EMS). A previous radial diffusion cell method was modified to include an anaerobic chamber that employed a plastic glove bag...

Characterization of copper supported on titanosilicates for room temperature H2S adsorption
DownloadSpring 2012
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a major contaminant of industrial gas streams. Amongst the various methods used for its removal, adsorption by metal oxides is the most promising. Copper oxide (CuO) is shown to have superior H2S removal capability at room temperature. H2S removal at room...

Fall 2017
Anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions are driving climate change. The largest sources of emitted carbon dioxide are coal and fossil fuel power plants. One proposed solution to mitigate emissions is to capture carbon dioxide from fossil fuel power plants and store it underground. This is the...
