In September of 2023 a group of Capstone/Enactus NAIT students started work on a plan to reimagine the Glenrose corner store. Based on successful prototyping using a popup proof of concept model, Enactus NAIT is proposing a joint venture with Glenrose Rehabilitation Hospital (GRH) to pilot and refine the business model over an eight month […]

In 2019, Paths for People conducted the Missing Links Campaign. This project sought to call attention to missing pieces of active transportation infrastructure. Having a thoroughly-connected active transportation network is crucial to getting users to walk, roll, or cycle more often, as people generally choose forms of transportation that are safe and easy to navigate. […]

Circle Cardiovascular Imaging, based in Calgary, Canada, specializes in medical imaging software. Their upcoming project involves advancing their cvi42 software, a medical tool for analyzing cardiovascular images. The quality assurance team, including interns like Fabiha with a Biomedical Engineering background, will play a crucial role in designing and implementing testing methodologies. The expected benefits for […]

Delayed coking is an integral process in upgrading heavy, unusable crude oil to lighter, usable products such as gasoline. Coke drums are insulated, vertically oriented cylindrical pressure vessels that facilitate such a process. Due to the process of delayed coking, these drums are subjected to cyclic thermal-mechanical loading and episodes of thermal shock. One of […]

“THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW”

During this dual internship, I will be involved in the PIONEER project (PhotoactIve OrgaNic polymErs for watER treatment). It has been demonstrated that through light irradiation, BTI (benzothioxanthene imide) in water generates hydroxyl radicals (OH•), with their recombination product being hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Hydrogen peroxide serves an antifouling function due to its compatibility with living […]

The project aims to advance clean energy technologies by addressing critical challenges in photocatalytic hydrogen generation using TiO2 nanomaterials. While TiO2 demonstrates strong photocatalytic abilities, harnessing solar energy for renewable energy production, it faces obstacles such as high recombination rates and slow kinetics for hydrogen evolution, necessitating the use of metal cocatalysts. Single-atom (SA) decorated […]

This project is developing a decision-making tool to help small and medium-sized manufacturing companies in Canada and Mexico use solar power more effectively. This tool considers not just saving money and the environment, but also safety for workers and the community. By working together, researchers in Canada and Mexico will improve this tool and share […]

Within the City of Edmonton, the Operations Program Delivery and Partnerships (OPDP) team is home to multiple parks programs that make Edmonton more livable, sustainable, and beautiful. The Benchmark Program is one such program. It was established to offer individuals and groups the opportunity to honour loved ones or to celebrate special occasions through the […]

From May 2023 to August 2023, our project aims to address the identified need for a centralized mapping resource for Community Gardens and Pop-Up Community Gardens. The project will deliver a comprehensive map informing future placements of both types of gardens, including historical information, geographical positioning, and demographic data. Tasks involve researching and compiling historical […]

This proposal aims to address the urgent need for clean energy solutions in Canada, particularly focusing on harnessing geothermal energy to meet electricity demands. By utilizing an Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) system, which efficiently converts geothermal heat into electricity, the project seeks to develop a modular rig integrated with parallel turboexpanders for enhanced performance. This […]
