LocalOn’s mobile app, where.a.bouts, aims to revive brick-and-mortar stores, pop-ups, and market stalls, combating the impact of e-commerce dominance on small businesses. To tackle challenges of retaining users and app market saturation, enhancing the user experience is crucial. By optimizing design and functionality, users will explore and engage more, leading to increased retention and attracting […]

The project focuses on conducting macro research on the agtech and early stage technology sectors in North America and abroad with the goal of providing private venture capital investment to fund Canadian technology innovation as well as agtech and agribusiness innovation.

This project seeks to improve the rate of CO2 removal from the exhaust gases of industrial processes in order to help solve the issues of global warming and climate change. Various carbon abatement techniques have been developed and used. The most used technique is called “carbon capture”. These technologies come with their own challenges such […]

This project seeks to contribute to the global cardon emissions reduction agenda through the use of alternative sources of fuel that do not produce carbon emissions. In other words, this approach is known as “CO2 avoidance” through the use of carbon-neutral fuels. The production of biofuel, namely bioethanol using edible feedstock has raised serious humanity […]

The global push to decarbonise our energy system and all its related processes has stirred up a great interest amongst researchers and scientists to devise ways and means of improving processes that heavily rely on fossil fuels. The use of renewable sources to make chemicals and materials has received considerable attention as this alternative approach […]

Residential wastewater is one of the largest sources of water pollution in Canada. Before being discharged to the environment, the wastewater needs to be treated to reduce risks posed to human health and the environment. However, the vast territory of Canada and the disparate locations of communities makes it a huge challenge to set up […]

Suitable nanomaterials will be selected to be used as nano-absorbents for CO2 capture (CC). The nano-absorbents will be suspended in a base fluid used for CC to create a nanofluid. The performance of both the pure base fluid and the developed nanofluid for CC will be evaluated experimentally in the lab and compared. Similarly, the […]

The primary objective of the project is to develop a comprehensive system that enables spatial and color measurements of agricultural fields using imaging sensors. By integrating the data acquired from onboard imaging sensors with GPS/INS sensors, the aim is to enhance the navigation capabilities of harvesting machines. This integration allows for efficient and precise navigation, […]

At the International CCS Knowledge Centre (Knowledge Centre), we take climate action seriously. We are dedicated to advancing the understanding and use of large-scale carbon capture and storage (CCS) to manage greenhouse gas emissions globally. We offer practical, hands-on experience-based guidance, and technical advice for planning, design, construction, and operation of large-scale applications of CCS […]

The floral composition, including algae, of the Qazvin basin, is poorly known. This basin is located on a mountain range that is a very important place in the world for its biodiversity and endemism, generated by the geological and topographic complexity. In this project we will identify the diatoms (silica algae) that inhabit the Shahroud […]

The proposed research project assesses how collaborative robotics can be used in the construction industry. Humans may now engage and collaborate with robotics (Cobots), which are gradually being employed in the construction sector; therefore it is important to thoroughly understand the functions of Cobots and how they will assist in the near future. The purpose […]

In cloud computing, managing the vast amounts of data created by construction projects is challenging. The cloud cannot support peak data loads, and the owner has no control over the security of the data that is being stored. This creates a need to assess cloud data management in the construction industry as construction companies become […]
