Development of genetic engineering in microalgae

Biopharmaceuticals are pharmaceuticals that are produced in biological systems, as opposed to being made synthetically using purely chemical approaches. Biopharmaceuticals are becoming increasingly important today, as biological systems are very good at making pharmaceuticals with very precise activity within people and with fewer side effects. However, most of the conventional approaches used to make biopharmaceuticals […]

Enhancing data access through geovisualization using aerial imagery of coastal habitats

Coastal landscapes, bridging the terrestrial and marine environments, are characterized by their dynamic shorelines and diverse geomorphological features, including soft and rocky shores, cliffs, coastal shelves, and wetlands. These habitats are crucial for supporting life cycles, marine food webs, and broader ecosystem functions. As climate change and human activities increasingly impact these areas, effective monitoring […]

Control of point source low volume methane emission using methanobiofiltration technology

Methane is a key greenhouse gas (GHG), and atmospheric methane emissions in Alberta are associated with a variety of industry sectors: sanitary landfills, wood waste landfills, feedlot operations and the oil and gas sector. When the quantities released at individual locations are relatively small, this methane cannot be used as an energy source; therefore, environmentally […]
