Coupling energy storage systems with renewable generation systems has a variety of advantages including: increasing the penetration of renewables, reducing curtailment, providing energy security, lowering greenhouse gas emissions and providing an…

"The following report endeavours to evaluate the technical and economic feasibility of utilizing the waste heat from a 500 KWe bioenergy gasification plant in the Haines Junction area and, when possible, the secondary option of using heat from…

This study investigates a general model for fuel consumption of prime diesel generators within a set range of loadings. The model is parametrized by the rated power output, or sizing, of a generator. This research gives insight into generator fuel…

Remote hybrid power systems that integrate renewable resources, such as wind and solar, in a thermal generation system encounter technical barriers with regards to the depth of penetration of these renewable resources. Some of these barriers can be…

This document is meant as a report on, and a supplement to the Metals Uptake Database (www.yukoncollege.yk.ca/research), completed in the summer of 2017. It acts to summarize and report on certain aspects of the data contained within the database,…

The mine life cycle, from exploration to mine closure can be fast-paced and volatile, therefore careful consideration should be given to remediation planning of mine sites. Ensuring strategies are developed which are both cost effective, and…

"Over one year of wind measurements have now been collected at the Kluane Wind Project site and the data has been analysed and correlated to Burwash Landing’s airport to provide an estimate of long term mean wind speed at the site. While the…

Passive water treatment technologies are increasingly being considered for mine site closure in the Yukon and efforts are currently underway to test, compare and contrast passive treatment technologies with conventional technologies. This study aims…

The purpose of this document is to report the results of the Bioremediation Project conducted by the Industrial Research Chair in Mine Life Cycle at Yukon College, between February 2013 to January 2014, to the industrial partners Alexco Resource…

Passive treatment systems (PTS) present a potential low-cost solution to treating mine-impacted waters (MIW) and impeding release of contaminants, such as metals and sulphate, into receiving waters in remote mine sites in Yukon. Nevertheless, the…
