Phytoplankton community dynamics and their role in naphthenic acid transformation within a constructed wetland system treating oil sands process-affected water [PDF]
Bitumen extraction from oil sands surface mining in northern Alberta generates vast amounts of oil sands process-affected water (OSPW) containing naphthenic acid fraction compounds (NAFCs) that require treatment due to their persistence and toxicity. The
