Advanced Industrial Waste Water Filtration Pilot

北方阿尔伯塔理工学院（NAIT）油砂可持续发展中心（COSS）成立于2010年，与行业合作，验证和优化创新技术，有可能提高加拿大油砂的环境和经济绩效。COSS将与液化空气集团合作，验证和评估一种工业废水处理装置，这是阿尔伯塔市场及其他地区油砂加工水处理（OSPW）领域的一种新技术。与液化空气集团密切合作，这一新产品将与行业最终用户合作进行现场规模的评估。该项目分为三个不同的阶段;第一阶段包括按照加拿大标准在工业最终用户现场改装、集装箱化和安装 **IMS-5000装置，第二阶段将包括进行为期21天的现场试验，收集现场数据和样品，以衡量关键性能指标，并根据这些指标对装置进行评估，和第三阶段将用于分析收集的样品，解释收集的现场和实验室数据，并量化关键性能指标，这些指标对该装置在行业最终用户中的商业化至关重要。能够在各种行业中处理提高石油采收率（EOR）水的成本效益和新型处理技术的广泛影响具有广泛的其他目标市场，包括：水力压裂水处理，农业和灌溉，家庭应用以及家禽和肉类生产等等。该技术提供了一个创新的和可持续的解决方案的问题，节约用水和水处理的高成本，因为它的处理能力和流动性相结合。推行这一倡议将是源自阿尔伯塔和加拿大的一项独特创新。该项目为与液化空气集团的长期合作奠定了基础，因为他们寻求将新技术引入加拿大石油和天然气市场。

The Northern Alberta Institute of Technology (NAIT) Centre for Oil Sands Sustainability (COSS), established in 2010, collaborates with industry to validate and optimize innovative technologies with a potential to enhance the environmental and economic performance of Canada's oil sands. COSS, in collaboration with Air Liquide, will validate and assess an industrial waste water treatment unit, a novel technology in the area of oil sands processed water treatment (OSPW) for the Alberta market and beyond. Working closely with Air Liquide this novel product will undergo field-scale assessments in cooperation with industry end-users. The project is divided into three distinct phases; Phase 1 covers the modification, containerization and installation of **IMS-5000 unit at an industry end-user's site as per Canadian standards, Phase 2 will involve running a 21-day field pilot and collecting field data and samples for measuring key performance indicators (KPIs) against which the unit will be evaluated, and Phase 3 will be used to analyze collected samples, interpret collected field and laboratory data and quantify the key performance indicators critical to commercialize the unit amongst industry end-users. The broad impact of a cost effective and novel treatment technology capable of treating enhanced oil recovery (EOR) water in a wide variety of industries has a wide array of other target markets including: treatment of hydraulic fracturing water, agriculture and irrigation, domestic application, and poultry and meat production to name a few. This technology offers an innovative and sustainable solution to problems of water conservation and high cost of water treatment because of its combination of treatment power and mobility.? The pursuit of this initiative will represent a unique innovation originating in Alberta and Canada. This project builds a foundation for long-term collaboration with Air Liquide as they seek to position new technologies into the Canadian oil and gas marketplace.
