Integrating Data Analytics and Mass Balance Approaches to Estimate and Understand Regional Methane Emissions: A Study in the Permian Basin
DownloadFall 2023
Satellite-retrieved methane (CH4) concentration data offers a valuable opportunity for large-scale emissions monitoring. However, its widespread adoption remains challenging due to the data volume and varying data quality. A workflow to estimate the methane emission rate of major hydrocarbon...

Application of manure from cattle fed with different diets affects soil properties and greenhouse gas emissions
DownloadSpring 2019
Cattle production contributes the largest portion of livestock agricultural greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Canada mostly in the form of methane (CH4). Efforts to reduce CH4 emissions have led to modification of diet composition for livestock, resulting in a corresponding change in manure...

Spring 2012
This work is focused on development of tungsten carbide-based materials as alternative anodes for direct utilization of methane in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). Not only were the capabilities of the anodes highlighted, but the challenges were also stressed. First, the impact of porous support...

Recovery of Legumes in Northern Temperate Pastures Following the Application of Broadleaf Herbicides
DownloadFall 2013
Field and greenhouse trials were conducted to assess the breakdown of soil residues of two broadleaf herbicide bioactives, aminopyralid and aminocyclopyrachlor, as well as associated legume reestablishment/recovery and pasture sward production dynamics. Greenhouse trials indicated legume seedling...

Performance and Methane Emissions of RFI Selected Cattle in Drylot and Under Open Range Conditions
DownloadSpring 2018
Residual feed intake (RFI) is a moderately heritable trait that can be used to measure feed efficiency in beef cattle, and thereby reduce feed related costs. RFI has been primarily evaluated under drylot conditions where diet, feed intake and activity levels are controlled and foraging behaviour...

Boxed-in: Comparing Algorithms for Box-flight Mass-Balance Greenhouse Gas Flux Measurements from Mineable and In Situ Oil Sands Developments
DownloadSpring 2022
To combat global warming, Canada has committed to reducing greenhouse gases (GHGs) 40-45% below 2005 emission levels by 2025. Monitoring emissions and deriving accurate inventories are essential to reaching these goals. GHGs can be measured at a small scale, often using ground measurements which...

Effects of feeding 3-nitrooxypropanol to lactating dairy cows on methane emissions, animal performance and rumen fermentation
DownloadFall 2014
Methane emissions from ruminants are of great concern as they contribute to greenhouse gasses emitted within the atmosphere. The objective of this research was to evaluate a novel biochemical compound, 3-nitrooxypropanol, on its ability to reduce methane emissions and its impact on animal...

Spring 2016
The study of methanogenesis in wastewater biofilms and various aggregated methanogenic environmental samples with high spatial resolution can be achieved by using microbiosensor techniques. In this study, the fabrication of a microbiosensor for methane detection was studied. This microbiosensor...

Measurements of Methane Pyrolysis in a Constant Volume Batch Reactor at High Temperatures and Pressures
DownloadFall 2021
Methane pyrolysis is a process used to generate hydrogen gas and carbon black without the creation of carbon dioxide. Methane pyrolysis in a constant volume batch reactor was investigated at temperatures of 892 K, 1093 K, and 1292 K with reaction times of 15 s, 30 s, 60 s, 180 s, and 300 s with...
