Spring 2018
Certain areas of oil sands in Canada are mined and processed for bitumen production using hot water processes that produce a slurry waste, referred to as tailings. Sand particles in tailings quickly settle and produce mature fine tailings (MFT), which are stored in large tailing ponds. Currently,...

Synthesis and Characterization of Amylopectin-grafted Polyacrylamide (AP-g-PAM) Flocculants for Dewatering of Oil Sands Mature Fine Tailings (MFT)
DownloadSpring 2018
Oil sand mining continues increasing in Alberta and bitumen production from surface mining is predicted to reach 257,600 m3/day by 2026 (a 41.3% increase compared to 2016), generating a large amount of tailings that need to be stored in tailing ponds. The challenging part of tailing management is...
