Fertilizers derived from organic waste are well positioned to fortify ‘sustainable’ agricultural practices in Canada and elsewhere by reducing energy-expensive fertilizer production, reducing waste and addressing the overuse of pesticides on food crops, medicinal plants and natural health products derived from plant products. Circulus Agtech Inc., with its organic waste-to-fertilizer process, produces excess microbial biomass […]

In power systems, dynamic simulation studies are required to ensure safe and secure operation of electrical grid. In these studies, different devices, such as generators and transmission lines, are represented by a mathematical model with a number of predefined parameters. The accuracy of the simulation studies highly depend on the models used for different components. […]

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

In this research project, our intern team, under the guidance of academic supervisor, will focus on developing advanced power electronics converters for harnessing ocean wave energy. This technology aims to efficiently convert the kinetic energy from ocean waves into usable electrical power, contributing to a sustainable and renewable energy future. By improving the performance and […]

This research proposes a systematic workflow, which utilizes theoretical approaches to identify the complex fluid flow mechanisms and quantify the phase behaviour of confined fluids for geothermal reservoirs. Due to the complexity of tight geothermal reservoirs, conventional EOS cannot be efficiently applied since it does not take into account the interactions between molecules-molecules (m-m) and […]

The proposed project seeks to evaluate the stability of concrete hydraulic structures using a progressive method that balances precision and computational expenses. By examining various simplification assumptions and analyzing different loading conditions, while incorporating machine learning techniques to merge data with different levels of accuracy, the project aims to enhance the evaluation of risks associated […]

This project deals with designing an efficient polygeneration process that incorporates municipal solid waste (MSW) drying and conversion to syngas process for reducing the load on the hydrogen unit of carbon capture and utilization (CCU) processes. The main benefit of this system is the production of high-pressure steam and high-quality syngas with minimum greenhouse gas […]

Après de nombreuses années de guerre, l’Ukraine est quotidiennement confrontée à la nécessité de restaurer rapidement le réseau ferroviaire après les bombardements et de rétablir la communication avec les territoires dé-occupés afin d’augmenter la croissance économique et d’améliorer la communication régionale. L’objectif principal de ce projet de recherche à Mitacs Globalink est d’optimiser la prise […]

The research project aims to assess the current situation and future prospects for the transition to renewable energy generation in Ukraine. The need of such transition has become urgent since the Russian invasion of Ukraine which made dependency on fossil fuels one of the key exploits by Russia on the European political arena. As European […]

Integration of renewable energy systems into grid is an effective solution to the electric energy shortage and environmental pollution. A number of technical challenges may arise with increased grid-connected renewable energy systems. One of the most important issues is how to achieve the islanding protection. Many anti-islanding detection methods have been reported for single renewable […]

Pipelines carry important resources like oil and gas across long distances. These pipelines sometimes cross areas with natural dangers like landslides which can stress or damage them. This study aims to create computer models to understand how pipelines react to these dangers using different approaches. Different types of pipelines and the ways they interact with […]

The increasing occurrence of unprecedented natural disasters attributed to climate change serves as a constant reminder of the necessity to decrease reliance on fossil fuels. In order to harvest renewable energy sources as a solution, our research proposes an innovative method of extracting maximum energy from ocean waves via piezoceramic material. In this work, the […]
