A method of enhancing flux of tailings settling pond water from an oil sands process through a membrane separation system and purifying the water comprising is disclosed. The process comprises the following steps: (a) treating the water with an effective amount of one or more water-soluble cationic polymers, amphoteric polymers, zwitterionic polymers, or a combination thereof; (b) passing the treated water through a membrane separation system; and (c) optionally, passing the permeate from step (b) through an additional membrane separation system.

L'invention porte sur un procédé pour améliorer l'écoulement d'eau de bassin de dépôt de résidus provenant d'un traitement de sables pétrolifères qui passe à travers un système de séparation par membrane, et pour purifier l'eau. Le procédé comprend les étapes suivantes consistant à : (a) traiter l'eau avec une quantité efficace d'un ou plusieurs polymères cationiques, polymères amphotériques, polymères zwitterioniques, solubles dans l'eau, ou une combinaison de ceux-ci; (b) faire passer l'eau traitée à travers un système de séparation par membrane; et (c) facultativement, faire passer le perméat de l'étape (b) à travers un système de séparation par membrane supplémentaire.
