Analysis of Nitrogen Species in Gas Oils Using High Performance Liquid Chromatography and Fourier Transform Ion Cyclotron Resonance Mass Spectrometry
DownloadFall 2012
The nitrogen content of products derived from oil sands bitumen is important, as nitrogen causes problems in upgrading and hydrotreating. Normal phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) has been previously used to attempt separation of the nitrogen group types (pyrrole and pyridine)...

Biodegradation of Hydrocarbons in Bitumen: Exploring Plant-Assisted and Microbial Stimulation Techniques
DownloadFall 2020
While bitumen is one of the oldest construction materials in the world and currently provides an important fuel needed to sustain our modern lifestyle, the disturbances caused by extracting and refining this material are considerable, with 895 km2 of land being disturbed in Alberta as of 2018...

Canadian Writers, McClelland & Stewart, and the Paperback Book: Remediation, Publishing, and Cultural Context
DownloadSpring 2014
This dissertation analyzes the relationship between literature and new media through an investigation of the book in a Canadian context and draws on book history and new media studies. To better understand the relationship between print and digital forms of publishing, I look backwards to a...
