Conversion des résidus agricoles en nanocatalyseurs pour la valorisation du biogaz en syngaz riche en H2

The proposed project represents a strategic expansion within a larger, multi-phase research initiative aimed at advancing biogas utilization into renewable energy solutions. Currently, the first phase, funded by MITACS, is actively developing advanced purification technology for biogas using Metal-Organic Framework (MOF) filtration materials. The second phase, which includes the current project, builds upon this foundation […]

Design and development of branched polymers for advanced anion exchange membranes in water electrolysis for clean hydrogen production.

Anion exchange membrane water electrolysis (AEMWE) is a promising pathway for clean hydrogen production, enabling high efficiency while utilizing non-precious metal catalysts and cost-effective system components. A critical element in AEMWE systems is the anion exchange membrane (AEM), which facilitates hydroxide ion transport and maintains ionic separation between the electrodes under strongly alkaline conditions. A […]

Towards an Overview of Industry 5.0 Supply Chain Performance Indicators

The objective of this project is to identify Industry 5.0 indicators applicable to supply chains. The concept of Industry 5.0 is relatively new, so companies still face the challenge of how to incorporate its three pillars—sustainability, resilience, and human-centricity—into their operations. Identifying performance indicators related to these pillars is a step forward, as companies use […]

Deciphering the role of plant mitochondrial alternative oxidase (mtAOX) isoforms by protein carbonylation profiling

Plant cells naturally express enzymes that remove the reactive oxygen species (ROS) or prevent their production to a detrimental level under stress conditions. One such protective enzyme is the alternative oxidase enzyme (AOX) that is unique to plants among all other eukaryotes. There exist five AOX enzyme isoforms, AOX1a, AOX1b, AOX1c, AOX1d and AOX2, in […]

Improving the monitoring of submerged aquatic vegetation in optically complex fluvial ecosystems using optical satellite remote sensing

??Submerged Aquatic Vegetation (SAV) are important in aquatic ecosystems as they represent hotspots of biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. Earth observation technologies (EOT) constitute a cost-effective monitoring tool for environmental variables at large scales but their use in freshwater environmental monitoring remains limited because of the optical complexity of inland waters. This research develops and builds […]

Inh’âge – Impact des Composantes Olfactives et Trigéminales des Huiles Essentielles sur la Respiration : Étude Comparative chez les Personnes Jeunes et Âgées

Le projet Inh’âge vise à comprendre comment les substances odorantes influencent la respiration, en dissociant les composantes olfactives (floral, boisé…) et trigéminées (piquant, frais…) et en examinant l’impact du vieillissement sur ces interactions. L’expérimentation sera réalisée sur deux groupes (jeunes adultes et adultes âgés) et se déroulera en deux phases : la détermination des seuils […]
