Appia IoT has developed a “Smart Water” dashboard for users of various industries (residential, commercial, industrial) to monitor their water’s health and status. An opportunity exists for small and large business to take advantage of local wastewater credits through remotely collecting water consumption and discharge data. Halifax Water’s wasterwater rebate program is currently underused by […]

StayShure is a rapid startup app development agency. We specialize in using innovative methods to build and release products upto 5x faster than traditional development companies can. In the midst of covid, our market demand has globally increased by about 300%- so we have struggled to keep up with growing our team versus client demand. […]

Corrosion under insulation (CUI) a prominent material damage mechanisms in the process industries and pipelines which has reportedly caused countless failure events. Absorbed moisture in thermal insulation is the key reason behind CUI which also causes heat dissipation thereby posing the increased carbon footprint and reduced thermal efficiencies. The soaked thermal insulations have always been […]

Engaging with the Centre for Ocean Ventures subsea platform, the Stella Maris, this project provides sensor manufacturers with descriptive analytics of their sensor data. As brand new data is collected in conjunction with other sensors, a range of high-level analytics will identify future exploration and research opportunities for sensor companies.

This project is intended to develop our online learning products, the marketing of those products, and the marketing and selling of them via our website and other marketing channels. We would like to engage an MTEI graduate intern to assist with the planning and implementation of digitizing a few of our products. From there we […]

Building off of the previous MITACS funded project titled, Guys’ Healthy Living Atlantic Canada: Bridges Institute and Public Schools in Atlantic Canada, this project proposal continues to partner with Bridges Institute with the purposes of providing boys’ only healthy living groups in Nova Scotia’s public schools. As with any new novel and promising project comes […]

The future of plant breeding arguably lies in the direct genetic transformation of plants for improved traits via gene editing. CRISPR is a relatively new and powerful gene editing tool that can be used to edit the DNA of any organism. CRISPR gene editing has the potential to improve apple fruit quality and speed up […]

The overall purpose of this research is to explore the ways diagnostic assessments enable or disable growth in mathematics understanding for children most impacted by colonialism, in particular the Historical Black community in Nova Scotia. This research stems from ongoing collaborative relationships with the Delmore Buddy Daye Learning Institute (DBDLI) that has focused on strategies […]

A collaboration with Acadia University, DFO and CARP proposes two interns assess the recolonization of COSEWIC listed Striped Bass and Atlantic Sturgeon to the Annapolis River Estuary. Research will focus on critical knowledge gaps regarding the habitat occupancy and migration of both species and train interns on current fisheries techniques. The goal is to monitor […]

Atmospheric corrosion, commonly known as weathering is among the leading causes of infrastructure degradation. The extent of atmospheric corrosion becomes more concerning when it triggers localized and non-linear metal loss rates. One such scenario is the localized corrosion at the flanged connections in piping, pipeline, and equipment for hydrocarbon industry and even utility sectors. As […]

The state of drinking water systems and services in First Nation communities is a recognized challenge in Canada. While municipal water systems are regulated by provinces, there is no such parallel regulator for First Nation communities. For First Nations, there are multiple federal agencies that intersect with community decision-making through fragmented processes and guidelines which […]

The path to reaching net-zero emissions by 2050 in Atlantic Canada is both time- and resource-constrained. Energy system models can be used in this context to compare climate change mitigation options and to strategically plan for meeting climate change goals through cost-effective and timely means. Motivated by these circumstances, Net Zero Atlantic is building an […]
