The main objective of this research project is to fabricate a new type of membranes at low-cost, and evaluate and compare their performances with commercially available highly expensive ion exchange membranes during NaCl and whey demineralization by electrodialysis. Those new membranes could replace ion exchange membranes in near future making electrodialysis more economical and easily […]

This project will develop new operational management systems by combining the elements of Lean, Agile, Green, Resilient and Nutrition (LAGRN) management of the dairy supply chain. The supply chain of Parmalat Canada will be used as a case study. This study is particularly significant for a company like Parmalat Canada, as it is trying to […]

The project will develop a firm-level multi-criteria supply chain design and management tool for Parmalat that will accommodate conflict and convergence between requirements for lean, agile, green, resilient, and nutrition characteristics that are all needed for convergent innovation (CI) in the dairy sector supply chain. A three-pronged program of activity is proposed in this project […]
