Environmental issues associated with tailings management have made it the most daunting
challenge faced by the mining industry. To dispose mineral tailings in a technical …

Water is an essential element contributing to human life. Evidence shows that only a portion
of the water from sewage/tailings is recovered in the consolidated tailings process. The …

The efficient dewatering of fluid fine tailings (FFT) generated from warm-water extraction of
Canadian oil sands is a major challenge that has limited the timely reclamation of the …

The generation of tailings as a by product of the bitumen extraction process is one of the
largest environmental footprints of oil sands operations. Most of the tailings treatment …

A novel organic–inorganic hybrid flocculant PAC‐AM‐DMC is synthesized using potassium
persulfate as an initiator, which was used in industrial wastewater treatment. Comparing with …

Polymer flocculation technology has a very broad application in the flocculation industry of
oil sand tailings at present. Nevertheless, the most commonly used commercial …

Oilsands are suspended fine solids in bitumen in which asphaltenes become adsorbed on
the surfaces of these particles, reducing the quality of the oil and hence generating higher …

The novel cationic flocculant, poly (lactic acid) choline iodide ester methacrylate (poly
(PLA4ChMA)), has been shown to provide improved flocculation of 5.0 wt.% mature fine …

Tertiary Amine Methacrylates (TAMAs), such as 2-(N, N-diethylamino) ethyl methacrylate
(DEAEMA) and 2-(N, N-dimethylamino) ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA), and PEGylated …

This study focuses on the synthesis of bio‐based and hydrolytically degradable
photocurable thermosets made from hydroxyurethane acrylates (HUA). The …
