Development of A Microbial Electrochemical Biosensor for Detection of Oil Sands Naphthenic Acids
DownloadSpring 2021
With a large number of oil deposits in Canada, Alberta oil sands industries are currently conducting bitumen extraction processes using hot water. In oil sands process water (OSPW) from these oil sands operations, naphthenic acids (NAs) are identified as one of the primary sources of acute...

Enhanced biomethane recovery from fat, oil, and grease through co-digestion with food waste and addition of conductive materials
DownloadSpring 2020
In this study, the effect of conductive additives on co-digestion of fat, oil, and grease (FOG) and food waste (FW) was evaluated. Initially, the biochemical methane potential (BMP) test was conducted for the optimization of the mixing ratio of FW and FOG. The optimal methane production (800 L...

Integration of anaerobic digestion and hydrothermal liquefaction for sewage sludge management
DownloadFall 2024
Given the volume of sewage sludge produced worldwide, efficient waste management and energy recovery techniques are essential. Anaerobic digestion (AD) and hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) are viable avenues for the valorization of sewage sludge. Their combination produces a synergistic framework...

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...
