The partner organization stands to benefit from the innovative and ethically responsible […]

Dye wastewaters from textile industries is toxic and often causes serious environmental damage. In this study, an eco-friendly photocatalytic degradtion process which involves the use of a Ag-ZnO catalyst and solar energy will be used to degrade toxic dyes. Therefore, the main objectives of my reserch over the three month period will be to synthesize […]

This project aims to tackle a critical challenge in materials science: the efficient extraction of valuable data from a vast array of sources, including scientific literature, patents, and technical reports. By integrating advanced AI language models and tailored prompt engineering, we intend to create an intelligent system that streamlines the process of retrieving polymer-related information. […]

This project is aimed to develop an inexpensive device for general public in monitoring skin healthcare condition. The device will be able to take magnified images of skin in order to observe more detailed skin conditions. A low cost version of the device will be able to attach to a smartphone and use the built-in […]

This project aims to improve how lake ice is monitored in Canada by combining images from optical and RADARSAT-2 satellites with advanced data analysis techniques. Monitoring lake ice is important because it reflects climate changes, which affect both local and global environments. The partner company, ApoSys, specializes in using satellite technology for environmental monitoring, but […]

Le projet portera sur l’étude de l’impact de goutte de fluides complexe qui a de nombreuses applications industrielles ou en géophysique. Nous utiliserons notamment des fluides à seuils qui ont la particularité de se comporter comme des solides lorsqu’il sont faiblement sollicités et comme des fluides quand on a dépassé une contrainte limite dite contrainte […]

This project aims to experimentally investigate the optimal operating conditions for the reactive crystallization of compounds. A stirred-tank reactor will be set-up and the effects of mixing conditions on the resulting crystal particle size distribution will be investigated. Techniques for the online monitoring the reaction process will be explored, which will be used for model […]

Polymer electrolyte fuel cells are a key technology in the race against climate challenges, and while commercial applications are increasingly common, challenges remain in cost, performance, and durability. Most of the issues that prevent full commercialization affect the catalyst layer, the region where the power-generating electrochemical reactions take place, like the oxygen reduction reaction. This […]

Growing energy demand in buildings has driven research towards efficient techniques and sustainable sources. Double-skin façades reduce energy consumption, improve thermal comfort, and enable bioenergy generation via microalgae photobioreactors. While recent research has focused on optimizing thermal and bioenergy generation from such systems, it often neglects the impact of heat gain by the occupied space […]

The current treatment for blood clots involves administering medications that increase the risk of excessive bleeding. Surgical intervention can be used, however, complex bends in the blood vessels can make it difficult to reach the clot site. Current treatments are not always successful, particularly in hard-to-reach areas such as below the knee. Miniature robots offer […]

Comminution is the most energy intensive process in mining operations, which represents a major operating cost and contributes the carbon footprint of mining activities. In recent years, high pressure grinding rolls (HPGR) and high speed stirred mills technologies have been attractive due to their energy efficiency comparing to conventional tumbling mills (including autogenous/semi-autogenous grinding mills […]
