The proposed project aims at the design and implementation of low complexity digital pre-distortion (DPD) algorithms for multiband and multiple input multiple output (MIMO) wireless transmitters. The power amplifier (PA) is one of the major sources of power dissipation in wireless base stations. The DPD techniques enable the PA to operate in a more efficient […]

The objective of this project is to improve long-term planning of Alberta’s electricity system infrastructure in collaboration with an industry sponsor, Alberta Electricity System Operator (AESO). The project aims at engaging stakeholders in a regional planning exercise in southern Alberta by a detailed exploration of their perspectives when evaluating energy system alternatives. This was identified […]

Oil reservoir souring is the production of toxic hydrogen sulfide by sulfate-reducing microorganisms (SRM) through naerobic respiration supported by organic electron donors present in oil fields. In recent years, nitrate injection has merged as a promising green biotechnology that has been proven effective in controlling sulfide production in oil fields. This strategy relies on inducing […]

Ecmius Biomedical is a Canadian company that is invested in the research, development, and future production of extracorporeal life support (ECLS) technology, including extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). ECMO is an invaluable tool that can support the treatment of adults and children with severe cardiac and/or pulmonary dysfunction, maintaining patient condition until longer-term treatments become available. […]

The proposed research project would focus on the development of high-value carbon fibers from low-value waste by-products, asphaltenes, for multifunctional applications. One part of the program would highlight the efforts to scale up the technology without deteriorating the process performance. The other part of the program would focus on working with North Forge in the […]

Mud pulse telemetry is a widely used technology for measurement-while-drilling (MWD) in the oil and gas sector. MPT signals are used in real-time drilling application to provide insight about the pressure, temperature, drill bit direction and deviation, and transmit logging data about the surroundings to improve the reservoir drilling economic efficiency. It transmits signals using […]

Oil sands tailings, a mixture of clay, sand, water and residual oil, is a by-product from the oil sands mining and extraction process in Alberta, Canada. This mixture is hydraulically transported and stored in engineered structures built with coarse sands separated from the oil sands tailings. The dimensions of these structures depend on the storage […]

Uranium can generate energy efficiently and sustainably, resulting in its high demand due to increasing global energy demand. As a result, there has been significant interest in the search for materials to sequester uranium ions, U(VI), from seawater. Among the materials adopted, the amidoxime-based polymeric adsorbent has shown great promise, but not without challenges. During […]
