Microbiological and geotechnical characterization of oil sands tailings in relation to acid rock drainage

Traditional disposal of oil sands fine tailings has been a challenge to the industry, and developing new disposal technologies, such as surface deposition, poses alternative challenges. Unsaturated surface deposits of paraffinic froth treatment (TSRU) tailings have the potential to generate acid roc...
