It [Alberta Energy and Utilities Board] also requires operators to continue to test alternative tailings management technologies and submit progress reports on tailings research ... One such alternative strategy currently under development is "thickened tailings" which is also known as "paste technology." With thickened tailings, tailings and liquid are combined with a flocculant to create a mix that is thicker than the traditional mix of water and tailings called "slurry." Because the tailings contain less water and are thicker, a smaller disposal area is needed for surface disposal than with a traditional tailings slurry. Also, thickened tailings solidify to a walkable state within a few days. 1, record 5, English, - paste%20technology
