Digital transformation is a global trend for many industry sectors, and it is extremely important for manufacturing companies to avoid being excluded from the global digital supply chain. Linamar which operates 60 advanced manufacturing facilities worldwide, as a leader in manufacturing solutions, has been investing in this new trend with the ultimate goal of achieving […]

As the attention on mining of large orebodies by low-cost underground methods has increased, cave mining (block and panel caving) and other related methods like sub-level caving have become one of the preferred approaches. However, one of the main challenge of this method is realistic prediction of the undercut dimension at which caving will initiate […]

Reducing green house gas emissions (GHG) from the energy and industrial sectors is crucial to meet this goal and the hydrogen economy will play a big role in accomplishing a greener and more sustainable future. Nearly 70 million tons of hydrogen are produced annually via conventional steam reforming of natural gas today. This results in […]

This project, in collaboration with the Cansbridge Fellowship, a non-profit with a strong history in fostering international trade, innovation, and investment in Canada, aims to promote sustainable manufacturing. By conducting research, identifying inefficiencies, and developing AI-driven tools to measure sustainability, the project will help businesses adopt greener approaches to fashion production. In addition to benefiting […]

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 […]
