Our CBU Research Team is working with Net-Zero Atlantic under the NZA Program to develop a point-source carbon capture and storage technology that 1) uses a capture medium constituted from seawater and 2) employs a technique that permanently sequesters the captured carbon as metal carbonates using the contaminated water of flooded former mines. This work […]

The right to information, although central to today’s societies, is both currently undervalued and underperforming. The main reason for this is that changes in the informational landscape and in the role of the State in our societies has impacted on both the meaning of information, and the contours and extent of the right to information. […]

The aim of this project is to develop a wearable device, called ImpactSense, to help measure performance on walking tests specific to mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and/or Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. The proposed research will investigate whether the sensor can be used to understand the: 1) effects of distracted walking, such as walking while […]

In Canada, ensuring clean and safe water while promoting environmental sustainability is a top priority. While wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) has been playing a crucial role in public health and environmental protection, but their operational efficiency still needs to be improved. To this end, this research project focuses on harnessing the power of data-driven modeling […]

The main objective of this research is to calculate Control performance standards in an interconnected power system without running the time domain simulation. Using a faster approach which requires probability distribution of load change. PSCAD and PSSE simulation tools will be used to carry out the research. System identification technique will be used to estimate […]

This project is about understanding and keeping track of personal wellbeing over time. While wellbeing apps have helped people closely monitor various aspects of their lives, there’s still a challenge in effectively using this data for self-improvement. I’ll work with UpBeing to determine the best ways to measure wellbeing and identify factors contributing to improved […]

When we want to deploy the trained model in the production environment, we should make sure that the model is working properly. Thus, we aim to extend the “data drift detection” and “model monitoring” components to work on large-scale datasets in production. Besides, we aim to enable model versioning to make sure that the pipeline […]

Enormous quantities of machine-readable data, measured in many terabytes, are readily available. The sources include the world-wide web, publicly available databases, raw experimental data, unannotated genomic sequences generated by biochemical tools, and so on. However, data does not necessarily equal useful information. More often than not, the data has to be intelligently processed, interpreted, transformed, […]

Addressing greenhouse gas emissions from transportation is critical for Canada to meet its climate goals. Batteryelectric vehicles are expected to make a substantial contribution to this goal. Manufacturing and end-of-life disposal of the batteries results in significant greenhouse gas emissions. Understanding the state of health of the batteries can keep the batteries in the vehicle […]

This project will determine what safe by-products are being created by the air pollution, including Carbon Dioxide, that RainIons is transforming/reducing with the unique materials and coating, what the mechanism of action is (e.g., how it’s occurring), and help RainIons optimize their technology for production. The project has three phases: • Phase 1: Determine what […]

In this project, we are developing recyclable metal-infused feedstock for low-cost 3D printing that mixes metal and plastic. We are using recyclable carbonyl nickel and eco-friendly water-atomized iron powders mixed with recyclable plastics. Our goal is to improve how these materials are put together, making 3D printing easier and cheaper. We will print produced metal/polymer […]

The project presents an opportunity for a Canadian company (SALT Inc.) to partner with a Canadian university research team to develop cost-effective technology to solve an important environmental and health-related problem, while contributing positively to Canada’s strategy to reduce greenhouse gases. The Wood Buffalo Bioreactor Landfill Project is estimated to reduce 253,134 tonnes of CO2 […]
