Phase Behavior, Adsorption Behavior and Interfacial Properties of Fluids in Shale Reservoirs
DownloadFall 2018
Shale oil/gas resources are becoming an increasingly important energy resource. Compared to conventional reservoirs, shale generally consists of a large proportion of organic matters. Organic matter is mainly comprised of kerogen, within which a significant amount of nanopores may reside. Due to...

Physical and Chemical Treatment of Oil Sands Process-Affected Water with Polyaluminum Chloride and Potassium Ferrate(VI)
DownloadFall 2016
This study investigated the application of polyaluminum chloride (PACl) and potassium ferrate(VI) for the treatment of oil sands process-affected water (OSPW). In addition, the performance of potassium ferrate(VI) was compared with other oxidation processes, including UV/hydrogen peroxide (H2O2),...

Cartagena Perez, Daniel Felipe
This thesis looks for modelling physically the cyclic solvent injection as enhanced oil recovery (EOR) technique used in unconsolidated heavy oil reservoirs, particularly those subjected to Cold Heavy Oil Production with Sands (CHOPS) methods. CHOPS reservoirs are characterized by their low...

Spring 2023
Wet ponds and wetlands can improve stormwater quality by removing sediment before being discharged into receiving water bodies. Despite a large amount of published information, their optimal design, operation, and management have not yet been determined due to the lack of adequately monitored...

Fall 2022
Geobags, or geotextile sand filled containers, have emerged as a cost-effective solution to providing large scale erosion protection for riverbanks and riverbeds in Bangladesh, China, and India. Geobags are currently designed using a formula intended for rock-based riprap that does not consider...

Physico-Chemical and Micromodel Investigation of Low-Tension Waterflooding in Tight Reservoirs
DownloadFall 2019
The existing controversies in the exact mechanism responsible for improved oil recovery during low-tension water flooding in rocks have portrayed the chemical enhanced oil recovery technique to be risky, hence less exploited in the field. This study evaluates experimentally, the effect of brine...

Spring 2013
Coagulation/Flocculation/Sedimentation (CFS), petroleum coke (PC) adsorption, and zero valent iron (ZVI) oxidation-enhanced by PC were applied for the remediation of oil sands process-affected water (OPSW), generated from oil sands operations in northern Alberta, Canada. OSPW is a complex mixture...
