Abstract

Researchers at the University of Regina have found a way to treat water from Saskatchewan oil reservoirs, removing oil and salts, so the water can be used for irrigation or in industry. “The quality of the water was actually very close to tap water,” explains Dr. Amr Henni, professor of Industrial/Process systems Engineering. At the recent Paragon Awards put on by the Regina Chamber of Commerce, Dr. Henni, Dr, Ezeddin Shirif and their team were presented an award for innovation, which is sponsored by Innovation Place.
