Spring 2023
Wildfires are a natural part of Canadian ecosystems, but sometimes pose a threat to people. In Canada, when public safety is threatened by a wildfire encroaching into the wildland-urban interface (WUI), local authorities will typically recommend and lead evacuation of the area. During...

Treating Waste with Waste – Calcined Bauxite Residue (CBR) as a Potential Wastewater Treatment Option for Oil Sands Process-affected Water (OSPW) and Municipal Wastewater
DownloadFall 2023
Bauxite residue is a byproduct generated during the extraction of alumina from bauxite ore. It is highly alkaline and has the potential to release toxic substances (metals) into the surrounding environment during storage. Hence, there is a growing interest in exploring the potential for metal...

Treatment of Antiviral Drugs in Wastewater Using Advanced Oxidation Processes - Ozonation of Oseltamivir Phosphate
DownloadFall 2021
While wastewater treatment facilities are designed to remove contaminants from water before it returns to the environment, unfortunately, not all of these facilities are effective in the removal of micropollutants (MPs). Antiviral drugs are a class of MPs that have become an area of concern due...

Treatment of Oil Sands Process-affected Water (OSPW) Using Integrated Fixed-film Activated Sludge (IFAS) Reactors
DownloadFall 2016
The oil sands process-affected water (OSPW) generated from bitumen extraction of oil sands, is currently stored in tailings ponds due to its toxicity to the aquatic organisms. The primary toxic constituents of OSPW are a complex mixture of alicyclic and aliphatic compounds containing carboxyl...

Treatment of Source Separated Greywater Using Microbial Electrolysis Cell and Granular Activated Carbon Biofilter
DownloadSpring 2021
Source-diverted greywater contributes to 60-70 % of conventional wastewater in volume and has a low organic matter concentration as compared to conventional wastewater. Greywater constitutes a high concentration of surfactants that are toxic in nature for the microbial community, which poses a...
