Control of point source low volume methane emission using methanobiofiltration technology

Methane is a key greenhouse gas (GHG), and atmospheric methane emissions in Alberta are associated with a variety of industry sectors: sanitary landfills, wood waste landfills, feedlot operations and the oil and gas sector. When the quantities released at individual locations are relatively small, this methane cannot be used as an energy source; therefore, environmentally […]

Mitigating Hydrogen Production in the End Shield Cooling System of CANDU Reactors

Radiolysis of water produces hydrogen, oxygen and hydrogen peroxide, which can be deleterious to system components. The radiolytic production of these species can be mitigated through appropriate chemical dosing with small amounts of dissolved hydrogen or oxygen-scavenging chemicals such as hydrazine. Corrosion of carbon steel components in the End Shield Cooling system of a CANDU […]

Development of a Strategy for the Improvement of the Wireless UnderGround-to-AboveGround Connectivity Probability Using the Non-Licensed UHF-Band Localization and Telemetry Systems in Harsh Environments

Two IoUT localization and telemetry sensors with RF antennas and power amplifiers at 915 MHz are achieved. The two sensors were measured in the research laboratory showing a reasonable agreement with the simulation results. However, the two sensors were not measured onsite yet. Therefore, the performance of the two IoUT localization and telemetry sensors is […]
