Firebag 3 and 4
Found a nice site on the Firebag projects I worked on, and hope to work on again, shortly. It explains nicely how the bitumen recovery works; if you want a in depth technical analysis look here. I still have to go up there to have a look and maybe a tour is also possible, because the technique is quite interesting and the projects are huge. So from a technical, drafting, point of view it is beautiful, environmentally they (have to/are forced to) become more aware. Public opinion demands it, rightly so. But no matter which way you approach it; the bitumen needs to be harvested, if it's not for us or the Americans, its for the Chinese. And that is not one of Nena's "99 Luftballons".
