The objective of this review was to summarize the aquatic environmental research through
time in the oil sands to provide an understanding of the composition and toxicity of oil sands …

Naphthenic acids (NAs) are constituents of oil sands process-affected water (OSPW). These
compounds can be both toxic and persistent and thus are a primary concern for the ultimate …

Aquatic and terrestrial environments are increasingly contaminated by anthropogenic
sources that include pharmaceuticals, personal care products, and industrial and …

Polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) represent a fraction of petroleum hydrocarbons and are
