Fall 2010
To better understand bitumen conditioning stage in oil sands extraction process a flow cell was designed to study bitumen liberation directly from sand grains, using real oil sand ore. A high-grade oil sand ore was subjected to various water temperatures and pH values to examine the bitumen...

Subclinical Listonella anguillarum infection does not impair recovery of swimming performance in rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss
Download2005
Farrell, A.P., Tierney, K.B., Balfry, S.K.
This study examines whether injections of the commonly used bacterial-challenge pathogen Listonella anguillarum (formerly Vibrio anguillarum) negatively impact the ability of rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum to perform repeat swimming trials. Fish were given intraperitoneal injections of...

Sustaining the Recovery of Lake Sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens) in the North Saskatchewan River of Alberta
DownloadSpring 2016
Nearly all Lake Sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens) populations across North America have experienced losses to historic abundances estimated to be > 99%. This species is especially vulnerable to overharvest, habitat degradation, river fragmentation from dams, and is slow to recover due to life...

Synergistic Role of Sodium Hydroxide and Sodium Citrate on Bitumen Slime Coating in Process Water
DownloadFall 2021
Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is generally used as the primary processing aid in the water-based oil sands extraction for the recovery of bitumen. It was found by Syncrude Canada Ltd. that the combined use of sodium hydroxide and sodium citrate could effectively improve the bitumen recovery as compared...
