Toxicological Characterization of Hydraulic Fracturing Flowback and Produced Water Exposures to Aquatic Organisms
DownloadFall 2021
Hydraulic fracturing is an unconventional oil and gas extraction method used to liberate oil and gas reserves from low permeability geological formations by injecting large quantities of fracturing fluid into the well-bore under high pressures. A by-product of this process is flowback and...

Toxicity of saline groundwater from Syncrude's Lease 17 to fish and benthic macroinvertebrates
Download1977
Peltzner, A., McMahon, B., McCart, P., Walder, G.
The mining of the tar sands which are included in the area to be developed by Syncrude Canada Ltd. will require the dewatering of the mine pits. This will involve the pumping of large volumes of saline groundwater. Present plans call for its eventual disposal through Ruth Lake, the Poplar River...

The use of aircraft measurements to determine transport, dispersion and transformation rates of pollutants emitted from oil sands extraction plants in Alberta
Download1987
Davis, A., Peake, E., Cheng, L., Rogers, D.
A field program study was conducted to determine the transport, dispersion, and transformation of sulphur and nitrogen oxides emitted from oil sands extraction plants in the Fort McMurray area. Measurements using the Intera/Alberta Research Council research aircraft were made under cold winter...

Westlake, D. W. S., Coutts, R. T., Nix, P. G., Pasutto, F. M.
In this study, the ability of microorganisms to degrade selected organic substrates in samples of Athabasca River water and water-sediment has been determined. Analysis of laboratory-incubated samples using gas chromatography/ mass spectrometry has shown that trace amounts (100 µg/L) of m-cresol...
