Disclosed herein are systems for removing particulate matter from a fluid, comprising a particle functionalized by attachment of at least one activating group or amine functional group, wherein the modified particle complexes with the particulate matter within the fluid to form a removable complex therein. The particulate matter has preferably been contacted, complexed or reacted with a tethering agent. The system is particularly advantageous to removing particulate matter from a tailing solution.

Systems and methods for removing finely dispersed particulate matter from a fluid stream

The invention relates to a class of novel surfactants that have utility in the recovery and/or extraction of oil.
