Using Carbon Control and Micronized Sulfur Technologies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from fertilizer applications and to enhance soil nutrient availability

Sulvaris is a pioneer in developing carbon control technology (CCT) and micronized sulphur technology (MST). Fertilizers developed using those technologies provide carbon, nitrogen and sulfur, increasing crop yields and soil fertility. Further studies are needed to optimize formulations for the CCT and MST products, especially their efficacy in reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The main […]

Prevention of cancer induced muscle wasting by polyunsaturated fatty acids

People suffering from cancer often experience loss of muscle which negatively impacts the response to cancer treatments and shortens survival. Several factors are at play to promote muscle loss. We are proposing a more relevant model to study muscle wasting that occurs during cancer treatment by utilizing skeletal muscle biopsy from patients undergoing surgery for […]

CO2 pipeline leak modelling — from the point of rupture to the far-field

Through public and private investment, Alberta is heavily committed to the geological sequestration of CO2. Before CO2 can be stored underground, however, it must first be transported via pipeline. Thus, the possibility of pipeline rupture must be included in risk assessment models. Unfortunately, and in contrast to more typical pipeline cargo, relatively few models have […]
