Descriptor-Based Explorations on Flotation of Metal Sulfides Using Density Functional Theory Calculations
DownloadFall 2019
Descriptor-based computational studies hold great promise for a more efficient optimization strategy for froth flotation of metal sulfides. To achieve this, fundamental insights into the ligand–metal sulfide interaction mechanism and identification of an effective descriptor possessing a...

Steam allocation is an important decision to be made for bitumen thermo-recovery using the Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD) technique. This is due to the significant amount of steam requirement and often limited steam generation capacity. Steam-to-oil ratio (SOR) is an important parameter...

Sheet and film forming processes refer to a set of processes that have a 2-dimensional sheet or film as their output. They are typically characterized by a scanning sensor which moves between the edges of the sheet in a periodic manner. This work is concerned with control and monitoring of such...

The high degree of variability of oil sands ores can be attributed to a mixture of different geological end members, i.e., estuarine sand, estuarine clay, marine sand and marine clay. This study focused on the mineralogy, especially of clay minerals, and toluene insoluble organic matter, referred...

The natural gas industry recognises that the need for removal of CH4 from C2H6 feedstock C2H4 production and utilization. CH4 being a contaminant in the production of C2H4 and furthermore in the production of polymers from C2H4. Dethanizers in gas processing plants are energy intensive and...

Remediation of bitumen-contaminated sand grains: development of a protocol for washing performance evaluation
DownloadSpring 2010
In the development of a non-aqueous bitumen extraction process, a major obstacle is solvent loss due to hydrocarbon attachment to the reject sand grains. A proposed solution to this problem is to wash (i.e. remediate) the oil-contaminated sand grains with water and surfactants. This research is...
