The United States Coast Guard (USCG) recently introduced stringent regulations for the treatment of ballast water. Ultra-violet (UV) light is a useful technology in a ballast water treatment system (BWTS), for inactivating phytoplankton which could be invasive and harmful to humans and the environment. UV damages DNA and prevents replication, but the vital stain methods […]

Single-use plastic bans and EPR laws are forcing CPG brands to transition from petroleum plastics to sustainable materials, a process that is complex, lengthy and expensive. Materia is addressing this challenge with an AI/ML-driven materials informatics platform with an integrated marketplace, empowering companies to develop and launch eco-friendly products 65% faster and cheaper. This project […]

This project aims to develop an advanced system for interpreting X-ray diffraction (XRD) data and classifying it based on insights provided by Subject Matter Experts (SMEs). XRD is a critical analytical technique used across various industries, including materials science, geology, and geophysics, to determine the crystallographic structure of materials. However, the raw spectra generated from […]

This project would seek to develop an integrated system incorporating a reverse water gas shift (RWGS) reactor to convert carbon dioxide and hydrogen into carbon monoxide and water, aiming for maximum production of carbon monoxide. RWGS is an endothermic, catalytic, equilibrium-limited reaction, so the project team will seek to develop efficient, novel catalysts and supports, […]

This project aims to support The Cansbridge Fellowship in scaling its operations to meet growing demand while maintaining its mission of empowering Canada’s future entrepreneurial leaders. By redesigning the program framework, integrating advanced technology, and developing innovative marketing strategies, the project will provide the organization with scalable solutions to expand its reach and impact. Interns […]

Temperature control is very important to a modern day society. Certain beverages, such as soda pop, alcoholic beverages, and even water are refrigerated so that they are more refreshing to drink. This project objective is to design novel environmentally benign and emission-free self-cooling beverage cans. Two different systems with different cooling approached are considered. The […]

Applied Recognition Corp. (ARC) a Canadian software company, which develops face recognition technology solutions, which are engineered to be both accurate and practical, allowing your organization to upgrade to biometrics simply and inexpensively. ARC relies on high-quality training data sets of human face images to train their machine learning models and ensure the accuracy of […]

Sulphur dioxide is an important atmospheric pollutant that can negatively impact the surrounding environment through the processes of wet and dry deposition. Although wet deposition can be measured directly in the field, dry deposition must be estimated from air concentrations and modelled dry deposition velocity. The versatile “big-leaf” deposition model is frequently used to estimate […]

Denture assemblies are oral appliances or prosthetic devices to replace missing teeth and restore oral function, speech, and aesthetics. The dentures market is driven by the senior population and demand, which is expected to grow by 68% in the next 20 years according to the Canadian Institute for Health Information. This demographic also often suffer […]

This study is an ongoing project where data has been collected across four-waves using an LGBTQ+ sample. Using the available data, Isaiah will support this project by creating a research model, developing hypotheses, and running the analyses for this project. Once the analyses have been completed, Isaiah will assist in preparing a submission for the […]

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

The project entails an experimental and numerical investigation into the effect of adding seeding particles into a Phase Change Material (PCM) thermal storage system under the application of Electrohydrodynamics (EHD).In previous experiments we have seen an increase in heat transfer enhancement for the same applied electric field when we have added seeding particles. The objective […]
