To meet CAFE standards for fuel economy, many new projects are being undertaken. One such method being investigated to achieve these standards is vehicle lightweighting. Each lightweighting project has an associated cost and will have an impact on various functional groups of the vehicle. During this internship, the related functional benefits of lightweighting will be […]

We have developed a novel data augmentation procedure that can significantly enhance machine learning-based classification of different brain imaging scans. We will further expand this program to be used to create a novel animal model of brain diseases which will allow researchers to investigate earliest signs of diseases, the progression rates of which may vary […]

Canadian indoor farmers are facing significant challenges related to out-of-season production, including pricing and consistency of electrical supply, pollination, and competition with international producers. The overarching goal of this project is to help Canadian industrial partners address some of these challenges through the development of sustainable technologies. Therefore, the goal of the proposed project is […]

THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW

The Plasma Resource Recovery System (PRRS), a technology developed by PyroGenesis Canada Inc. (PCI), is a plasma gasification process that turns municipal solid waste (MSW) into energy and other valuable products. During operation in an Electric ArcFurnace (EAF), the MSW is gasified to form syngas which is used to generate electricity. Metals, metals oxides and […]

Water-based lubricants have emerged as substitutes for petroleum-based lubricants in various applications such as hydraulic fluids, cooling fluids for metal cutting, and stern tube bearings in ship propeller shafts. My STEM tech business proposes an asphaltenes-derived carbon dots (AsphaDots) lubricant which intends to solve the friction and wear problems in steel and allied materials, which […]

The collaboration between BioOilSolv and Innovate Calgary aims to revolutionize bitumen recovery processes in the oil sands sector by developing biomass-derived solvents as a more sustainable and effective alternative to traditional methods. Through this project, an intern will undertake several key objectives to propel the commercialization of biomass-derived solvent technology. Firstly, the intern will focus […]

The PEACH (Practical Electrochemical Air Capture and Hydrogen) DAC (Direct Air Capture) offers a low-cost, nature-inspired ocean-based carbon dioxide removal (CDR) using a unique electro-geochemical approach. The PEACH DACquiri is a form of Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement (OAE) that seeks to modify surface ocean water (or other water mass) chemistry, using ion-selective electrode systems to promote […]

The proposed research project aims to optimize the design of pool complex natatoriums while through the lens of whole life carbon. Focus will be placed on mechanical system design, while exploring high performance building enclosures. Occupant comfort and energy will be utilized to support the whole life carbon analysis.

Ionada has developed a patented marine exhaust gas cleaning system utilizing the latest in membrane technologies to provide the marine industry with a simple solution to save money and satisfy new International Marine Organizations (IMO) emission requirements. The intern will implement (install/retrofit/integrate) Ionada’s product onto existing ships with the aim of improving and optimizing the […]

The development of quantum technology is exciting frontier being pursued globally due to its potential for transformative innovations across information security, communications, medicine, energy and more. A critical component if the availability of robust quantum light sources. This research focuses on a promising approach – creating quantum light sources that can operate at room temperature. […]

Le but du projet est de concevoir un dispositif sur papier pour la détection du lactate dans les cellules en culture. Le lactate est un sous-produit du métabolisme et un marqueur du caractère invasif du cancer. En effet, les tumeurs deviennent hypoxiques durant leur croissance, ce qui altère le métabolisme. La consommation de glucose dans […]
