Classroom Occupancy-based Human Resource Optimization using Sensor- and WiFi-based Location Tracking
DownloadSpring 2017
This thesis presents a framework for dynamic allocation of human resources in operations and maintenance based on occupancy of university classrooms using sensor- and WiFi-based location tracking. It includes case studies where 125 classrooms at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Canada, are...

CO2 geological sequestration and utilization for enhanced gas/oil recovery from molecular perspectives
DownloadFall 2022
Atmospheric CO2 concentration has been gradually growing since the industrial revolution, leading to climate change and global warming. As a result, carbon capture, utilization, and sequestration (CCUS) has become utterly important for human society. CO2 geological sequestration in depleted shale...

Combined Adsorption and Biodegradation Processes for Oil Sands Process-Affected Water Treatment
DownloadFall 2014
The oil sands process-affected water (OSPW) generated from bitumen extraction of oil sands by industries in Northern Alberta, Canada, is a great environmental concern because of the OSPW toxicity in the environment. This toxicity has been attributed to a group of alicyclic and aliphatic compounds...
