ALAN FUNG is an academic who published a paper in 2023 entitled Soil development and biomass feedstock production using pulp and paper residuals in mine reclamation. ALAN FUNG published this work as part of a team: Teshima, Mark A.. Here is a description of this work: A c,,ncept was developed by SYLVIS to mitigate energy transition stress using innovative mine reclamation at Alberta coal mines. It involved using municipal biosolids as a soil amendment to develop a short rotation woody biomass plantation. The concept is adaptable, with layers of benefit offering value for mineral mine reclamation and can utilize residuals other than municipal biosolids. Taseko Mines partnered with West Fraser and SYLVIS Environmental to explore the feasibility and benefit of modifying this concept to use pulp residuals from West Fraser's Cariboo Pulp and Paper mill in Quesnel, BC at Taseko's Gibraltar mine in McLeese Lake, BC for reclaiming their tailings. The feasibility study was funded by Taseko, West Fraser, and British Columbia's Clean BC program, representing new research into the adaptability of.
