Devant l’augmentation des problèmes environnementaux dus aux changements climatiques causés par l’homme. Et face aux diverses solutions de protection de l’environnement, en terme de nouvelles technologies et/ou amélioration d’un procédé, les scientifiques cherchent constamment des solutions réalistes et raisonnables, voire de nouvelles technologies émergentes. Pour sa part, la MRC de Vaudreuil-Soulanges, intéressée par le développement […]

High Voltage DC Transmission (HVDC) is used for bulk power transfer over long distances. Manitoba Hydro’s power system involves collection of AC power in the north, where it is converted to DC and then transferred to southern Manitoba (approx. 900km) where it is converted back to AC to feed consumers and for export. Recently, inter-area […]

The objective of the project is to develop a non-destructive test protocol to accurately and reliably detect cracked, pre-welded automotive parts within the constraints of an industrial assembly cell. This will involve reviewing, developing and testing one or more test procedures based on vibration excitation of the part and the measurement and analysis of the […]

Reducing energy consumption is one of many ways to respond to our urgent global need to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. To do so, it is important to identify the most effective energy saving strategies and communicate them to energy consumers. Pulse Energy is a company that works to do just that and is always […]

Sequestering the industrially produced CO2 leads to its capture via the underground formation of stable inorganic carbonates/bicarbonates. An alternate approach is to convert the CO2 into valuable organic products having commercial markets. The incorporation of CO2 as block molecule with which to expand the platform is part of the Enerkem strategy aiming to further improve […]

A l’heure actuelle, le domaine de la construction est l’un des plus en retard au niveau des nouvelles technologies par rapport aux autres domaines de l’industrie. En effet, que ce soit pendant la phase de conception, ou celle de réalisation, l’information circule encore beaucoup sur support papier, et en grande quantité. Alors que des études […]

Portable lifting systems and platforms are used extensively in music and movie industries for elevating both equipment and personal. An ideal system for these industries is a portable stable platform that can be transported to the desired site and reconfigured (or moved) to the necessary height with ease. The market currently lacks such highly portable […]

Luxmux sensors will monitor steam quality and water quality for in-situ Thermally Enhanced Heavy Oil Recovery. In Canada, 2 billions of kilograms of steam are produced per year for heavy oil recovery and this amount is expected to double in the next ten years. Each year, heavy oil producers spend $2.3 billions on natural gas […]

This Mitacs Accelerate proposal is the second of three-phase project of Adriana’s Goncalves master’s thesis. For this Mitacs-Accelerate renewal proposal, it will be investigated further flotation process targeting recovery of 80-90% considering a previous technical feasibility study conducted on material from a representative sample of ASM tailings from Costa Rica. The tailings belong to a […]

Recognizing Dr. Golnaraghi’s internationally recognized expertise in this field, Epic will be working with his team of HQP and provide them with practical training with the goal to employ these highly qualified personnel to guarantee the advancement of this technology. The […]

This research is aimed at the development of new modeling and simulation algorithms of interconnected AC and DC supergrids for power flow and transient stability analyses. The efforts will be focused on the following technical areas: • Advanced modeling methods of AC/DC power converters and controls for the integration of renewable energy resources in power […]

The cellular network nowadays faces an uphill battle against the explosive growth of mobile data traffic. Deploying low power radio base stations covering small cells within the current cellular coverage area is a promising approach to significantly boost the network capacity, provide better coverage, and reduce network congestion. Since it is recognized that backhauling the […]
