Smyth, D. J. A., Blowes, D. W., Ptacek, C. J., Bain, J. G.
The passive interception and in situ treatment of groundwater using permeable reactive barriers (PRBs) has, within the past decade, become an accepted remedial approach to the control of plumes containing dissolved organic and inorganic contaminants. Since the first applications of the technology...

Report and Recommendations of the Task Force on Tree and Shrub Planting on Active Oil Sands Tailings Dams
Download2011-02-16
Hurndall, B.J., Sobkowicz, J., Morgenstern, N.R., Kupper, A.
Dam safety concern over the planting of trees and woody shrubs is in conflict with progressive reclamation, which is also a desirable outcome for oil sands tailings dams. International dam safety practice commonly restricts trees and woody shrubs on the downstream slopes of dams to preclude...

Gamal El-Din, M., Kindzierski, W., Jin, J.
Oil sands mining involves removal of water from the Athabasca River basin in northeastern Alberta. Water produced during the extraction of bitumen from oil sands is referred to as oil sands process water (OSPW). Information on the likelihood of human exposure to OSPW derived naphthenic acids...

Hashisho, Z., Morshed, G., Small, C.C.
The overall goal of this project is to better understand the advantages and limitations of air emission pollutant characterization and monitoring techniques from area sources. This will allow for the selection of current technologies that are most suitable for measuring fugitive emissions of air...
