The intern will be participating a multifaceted projected involving a case study on new technology which is being produced to help prompt sustainability through a multitude of different sectors and industries. The intern will create content and reports which will help educate the youth into thinking long term and innovating new processes. This will be […]

Les isolats protéiques d’origine végétales sont très plébiscités par le secteur bioalimentaire car largement utilisés comme ingrédients dans diverses formulations alimentaires. Dans une optique de valorisation des coproduits et d’économie circulaire, il devient d’intérêt de générer ces ingrédients protéiques à partir de coproduits alimentaires. Par conséquent, plusieurs travaux ont porté sur l’extraction et la concentration […]

Soil contaminated with organic and inorganic contaminants represents the largest waste stream in Alberta’s landfills. Electro-Kinetic Solutions Inc. (EKS) has developed the Electrokinetic Soil Treatment (EKST) Process to cost-effectively decontaminate soils onsite, instead of disposing them in a landfill. This innovative technology, based on the proven physics of electrokinetics, is effective even for fine-grained soils […]

Ce projet traite le défi de la virtualisation du réseau électrique dans un contexte de transition énergétique caractérisé par une augmentation des ressources énergétiques décentralisées connectées, une numérisation des postes et automatismes et une convergence des technologies informationnelles avec les technologies opérationnelles. Le travail des stagiaires contribuera à mieux intégrer ces éléments dans les études […]

SFU will be collaborating with partners of a supercluster on the Continuous Connected Patient Care (CCPC) Platform, which is being developed to provide safe, responsive, and high-quality outpatient care at home. We will be working directly with our partner, Medtronic Canada. SFU’s will focus on the research, development, and testing of medical grade wearable sensor […]

Newer travel modes such as shared e-bikes and autonomous transit have/are emerged/considered to be low-cost, accessible and sustainable travel options. However, data and models to support evidence-based planning and policies for the effective deployment of these innovative transport options for smaller municipalities like the City of Kelowna is rare. This research fills a critical gap […]

Lake Utopia Paper is interested in developing and improving the birch NSSC pulping process for the production of corrugating medium. The primary objective of this project is to develop delignification and sulfonation models for process control of NSSC pulping of birch. In addition, the relationship between the NSSC pulping process and the properties of the […]

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

Knowledge of elemental and radioactivity transport around the primary side of a Canada Deuterium Uranium (CANDU) nuclear reactor and the radiation fields arising from the distribution of deposits around the circuit can be used by radiation monitoring and protection programs to assist in the planning and execution of maintenance, inspection, and refurbishment activities. When incorporated […]

The increased global demand for energy coupled with the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions has rendered the development of the hydrogen economy a top priority for governments internationally. In Canada, the goal is for hydrogen to provide up to 30% of the energy demand by 2050. In this context, the devices required for hydrogen […]

Les nouvelles technologies peuvent entrainer un développement énorme aux industries, en particulier pour ceux qui savent en tirer profit. Dans ce cadre et pour des objectifs de concurrence sur le marché mondial, les usines de transformation de bois cherchent toujours à des solutions technologiques innovantes pour améliorer la qualité de ses produits (panneaux de lamelles […]

A nuclear reactor to a nuclear power plant is the same as the heart of a living human. The safe operation of the plant is directly related to the health of the reactor. Just as in the human heart, where blood circulates to deliver oxygen to the other parts of the body, coolant passes through […]
