1979
A fog study was implemented by the Alberta Oil Sands Environmental Research Program (AOSERP) during 1977-1978 to provide more detailed observations of fog occurrences, especially during the winter when the possibility of ice fog exists. The objectives of the study are to: 1. Assemble and collate...

The purpose of this project is to provide AOSERP with a preliminary understanding of the state of the art of in situ bitumen recovery technology, the most probable application and rate of application of that technology to the Athabasca deposit, and the resultant implications for the environment...

Wels, C., Lefebvre, R., Robertson, A. M.
Air movement and associated oxygen transport through waste rock dumps has the potential to significantly enhance the rate of oxidation of pyrite-bearing material. While this is a desired outcome for most heap leach operations, airflow in waste rock storage facilities can result in significant...

This analysis of AOSERP sigma data is an attempt to synthesize the available plume dispersion data from the AOSERP study region to derive a useful procedure for predicting the plume sigma values. The report includes a critical review of many of the more widely known sigma specification schemes...

Analysis of fur production records for registered traplines in the AOSERP study area, 1970-75
Download1978
Between 1970 and 1975, the AOSERP study area contained up to 131 registered trapping areas (traplines). Traplines averaged 165.8 km2 (64 mi 2) in area. For the four trapping seasons 1971-72 to 1974-75, affidavits reporting trapper harvests were available for an average of 75 percent of the...

Analysis of the leisure delivery system 1972-1979 with projections for future servicing requirements
Download1980
The increase in the population of Fort McMurray, which since the early 1960's has been associated with commercial exploitation of the Athabasca Oil Sands, has necessitated the institution and continuous expansion of recreational and cultural service delivery systems in the region. In 1979,...

The acidic and metal rich waters that are generated from acid sulfate soil (ASS) drainage can have damaging impacts upon ecosystems. The most obvious impact has been the discolouration of water and occasional fish kills. ASS’s produce these acidic and metal rich waters when pyrite in soil is...

Application of coagulation-flocculation process for treating oil sands process-affected water
DownloadFall 2011
Oil Sands Process-Affected Water (OSPW) is generated from oil sands operation processes such as mining, extraction, and upgrading. Currently, accumulated OSPW is temporarily stored in tailings ponds which are toxic to the environment and must be treated for either reuse or safe discharge in the...
