8.5 T/hr Polymer Hydration Plant for Tailings Mitigation

Mine Tailings Dewatering

ClearBakk provided a polymer hydration plant for accelerated mine tailings dewatering for a major client in Alberta. This is one of the largest polymer hydration plants in the world in terms of dry polymer throughout.

4.8 T/day cEOR Polymer Hydration Plant

cEOR – Polymer Flooding

ClearBakk was approached by an Oil & Gas client in Alaska to design a polymer hydration package to extract more oil from their reservoir. We designed and built a 4.8 MT/day Chemical Enhanced Oil Recovery (cEOR) package in 5 months from initial purchase order (PO) to ready-to-ship in order to meet the client’s accelerated delivery schedule.

800 Person Potable Water Treatment Plant

Potable Water Treatment

ClearBakk was approached by an Oil & Gas client in Alberta to provide a drinking water treatment plant for a 800 person camp. Our design used membrane technology that met and exceeded the Canadian drinking water quality standards.

8.5 T/hr Polymer Hydration Plant for Tailings Mitigation

Polymer Hydration Plant

ClearBakk designed and built one of the largest polymer hydration plants in the world. This plant featured dry polymer handling / conveyance, high turndown capabilities for wetting & shearing, and dust control in all processes, all within a minimized facility footprint.

Produced Water Treatment System & Diagram

Evaluating Treatment Alternatives for Produced Water Treatment

ClearBakk conducted a technical assessment on treatment of produced water for storage in an open pond and reuse in fracking applications. Water analysis revealed challengingly high levels of TDS, oil content, TOC, and NORM contaminants. However, ClearBakk was able to provide both a cost-effective short-term solution and outline the final treatment requirements in a comprehensive report for the client.

Biological Treatment Leveraging External MBR

Biological Treatment Leveraging External MBR

ClearBakk employed our innovative, next generation (patent pending) wastewater treatment technology to treat water from a 600 person camp. This project met the client’s needs and exceeded Alberta Environment discharge standards.

Treatment Feasibility Study

Treatment Feasibility Study

ClearBakk was approached by a major Oil & Gas client in Alberta, which required a solution aiming to treat its Frac Return Water and reclaim the water as a saleable product. Raw water was from different sources resulting in highly variable water quality. ClearBakk performed lab test to verify the treatment process to optimize the chemical dosing required to reclaim Fracking Return Water as a saleable product.

Mining Waste Water Nitrate Removal

Mining Waste Water Nitrate Removal

A gold mining client in British Columbia was experiencing a wide range of flow rates of high nitrite waste water and needed a solution that was able to handle the wide range of flow rates and inconsistent high nitrite concentration without using chemicals / consumables.

Sewage Water Treatment Plant

Sewage Water Treatment

ClearBakk was approached by a major Oil & Gas client in Alberta to help in treating their wastewater collected from a 1700 person camp to meet unrestricted reuse standards (California Title 22) which is more stringent than Alberta Environment discharge standards.

Produced Water Treatment Skid for Oil & Gas Application

Oil & Gas Produced Water Treatment

ClearBakk was approached by an Oil & Gas disposal services company to help treat their produced and fracking water that they received from multiple producers to a level that would extend the life of their deep disposal wells.

PolyPakk Portable Polymer Hydration Plant

PolyPakk Portable Polymer Hydration Plant (PHP)

ClearBakk was approached as an engineered equipment supplier to design, build and operate a high volume polymer hydration system (The PolyPakk) to meet the needs of a tailings mitigation pilot program.

PolyPakk Portable Polymer Hydration Plant

Polymer Hydration Piloting

ClearBakk has substantial expertise in polymer hydration for both pilot scale de-risking and the design of the final plant. We designed the PolyPakk system so that our customers can test the effectiveness of different polymers.

PolyPakk Portable Polymer Hydration Plant

Modular Polymer Injection Pump Package

ClearBakk provided complete EPCM services for an Oil Sands client that needed a modular polymer injection pump package. The clients oil sands operation required a polymer solution injection package for an Atmospheric Fines Drying (AFD) trial that uses chemicals to help settle out solids in the fluid Fine Tailing (FFT) and composite tailings.
