Spring 2016
Non-aqueous extraction technologies are currently being investigated as an alternative to the conventional water based process for extracting bitumen from oil sands. The reduced dependence on fresh water and land for creation of tailing ponds makes non-aqueous technologies a greener alternative....

Superhydrophobic Micro- and Nano-structured Surfaces: Fabrication, Wetting, and Evaporation
DownloadFall 2020
Water-repellent, superhydrophobic (SH) surfaces have attracted a remarkable interest in researchers for both purely academic pursuits and industrial applications, including nanofluidics and microfluidics, coatings, and drag reduction, due to their unique self-cleaning and drag reduction...

Treatment of Oil Sands Process-affected Water (OSPW) Using Integrated Fixed-film Activated Sludge (IFAS) Reactors
DownloadFall 2016
The oil sands process-affected water (OSPW) generated from bitumen extraction of oil sands, is currently stored in tailings ponds due to its toxicity to the aquatic organisms. The primary toxic constituents of OSPW are a complex mixture of alicyclic and aliphatic compounds containing carboxyl...
