Spring 2014
Cyclic steam stimulation (CSS) and steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) are the most commonly applied techniques used for heavy oil (HO) and bitumen (B) recovery. However, these methods, especially CSS, suffer from low recovery factor and production of highly viscous oil that requires...

Evaluating Wettability and Imbibition Oil Recovery of the Core Plugs and Crushed Rock Samples from the Duvernay Formation
DownloadSpring 2018
Unconventional sources have become the leading sources of hydrocarbons in North America. These unconventional resources with low porosity and ultra-low permeability can produce hydrocarbon at profitable rates from a hydraulically fractured horizontal well. However, rock-fluid properties need to...

Experimental and molecular dynamics study of the interactions of lipid membranes and the pulmonary surfactant-associated protein B in model pulmonary surfactant systems
DownloadSpring 2018
The pulmonary surfactant exists as an active film, easing the work of lung by fast absorption and desorption during respiratory cycles, which the principle function of both the lipid and protein components is to reduce the surface tension of the air-liquid interface. The pulmonary surfactant is...

Experimental Testing of New Generation Chemicals and Conventional Surfactants as Additives to Steam Injection
DownloadSpring 2019
With the decrease in nonrenewable energy sources, heavy oil and bitumen recovery gains more attention due to their huge potential. The recovery of heavy oil or bitumen requires viscosity reduction where steam is commonly injected to mobilize and displace viscous oil. This application, however,...

Exploiting the Enhanced Permeability and Retention Effect for the Targeting of Tumors with 18F-SiFA Polymer Nanoparticles
DownloadFall 2017
Over the last several decades great progress has been made in cancer diagnosis and detection. One foundation of this progress has been improved imaging technologies. Among the most promising imaging technologies for cancer detection is Positron Emission Tomography (PET). PET imaging allows for...

Extraction of canola proteins and assessment of their applications: cruciferin for encapsulation of bioactives and napin as a chaperone-like molecule
DownloadFall 2016
Canola is a farm-gate crop in Canada. Canola meal after oil extraction is used mostly as animal feed with limited value-added applications. Canola proteins are known to have great potential for use in food and non-food applications due to their nutritional, biological and functional properties....

Gelled and Foamed Microemulsion-based Systems for Cutaneous Drug Delivery of Diclofenac Sodium
DownloadFall 2017
Abstract Topical formulations of diclofenac have become popular for treating various painful inflammatory conditions. Yet, not all formulations are suitable candidates for dermal delivery as the skin acts as a natural barrier that limits drug penetration. This barrier challenges the efficacy of...

Iqbal, M., Gamal El-Din, M., Aghajamali, M., Veinot, J.G.C., Purkait, T.K., Goss, G.G., Hadidi, L.
There are many candidate technologies that could be applied to the treatment of oil sands process-affected water (OSPW). Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are particularly useful for degrading biologically toxic or non-degradable materials such as aromatics, pesticides, petroleum constituents,...
