Ultraviolet-C (UV) light is able to damage cells and organic matter to make water, air, and high touch surfaces safe for the public. UV-C lamps render microorganisms harmless by damaging their cell structure and DNA. UV-C based water treatment has safely been used for decades by water utilities around the world. Recent developments in technology […]

Healthcare requires the early and accurate detection of disease indicators, be they small biomolecules or viruses, which is vital for successful treatments, preventative medicine and disease prevention. Improving turnaround times for early and accurate detection will improve patient care, enable the mass screening of large populations during outbreaks and effectively reduce the diagnostic burden. We […]

Development of a scalable, flow-through membrane-based processing platform for producing enriched fractions of bioactives from marine by-product extracts generated by bacterial fermentation. The proposed technology uses the conventional membrane filtration approach using pressure in tandem with applied voltage for increasing the value and application of the sustainably sourced, bioprocessed crude fish by-product protein extracts. Peptide […]

Environmental quality criteria (EQCs) for soils are not designed to protect ecosystems from multiple contaminants that co-occur. EQCs are overwhelmingly based on dose-response studies of single contaminants, and lack mechanisms for scaling EQCs to accurately predict metal mixtures toxicity. The inability to predict risk for metal mixtures in soils at Canada’s many current and legacy […]

Peu de connaissances existent sur la quantification des émissions de gaz à effet de serre (GES) et sur les pistes concrètes de réduction à l’échelle d’entreprises d’économie sociale oeuvrant en gestion des matières résiduelles. De telles démarches doivent être soutenues par une politique de développement durable pour implanter ces actions à long terme. Ce projet […]

We want to determine the relationship between weather such as rainfall and temperature on outdoor grown hemp. Specifically what these variables do in terms of changing the content of THC and CBD in certain varieties of hemp. Our goal is to give farmers the knowledge so that they can determine when is optimal time to […]

Sustainable method of treating waste water is one of the major issues across the world. Different techniques have been developed by various scientific communities but each possess some limitations. So, keeping in the mind of these major limitations such as high cost , external power source requirement, huge setups , non recyclable etc, design of […]

Through analysis of vegetation data collected between 1991 and 2021 in Long Point National Wildlife Area, it is the goal of the research to identify trends and changes in sand dune vegetation communities following a reduction of white-tailed deer browsing pressure. By evaluating the rate and level of change in vegetation diversity, structure, and composition, […]

Vehicles that are able to autonomously move in the air, on the ground, or underwater must fuse various forms of sensor data together in order to ascertain the vehicles location relative to objects or a map. Typical sensor data includes inertial measurement unit data and some sort of positioning data, such as GPS data. However, […]

The proposed project mainly focuses on developing an innovative gas/liquid contacting technology that is of critical importance to a wide range of process industries and environmental-management operations. Successful development and implementation of this project are expected to: • Reduce the environmental impact of a variety of operations that are needed to meet human needs and […]

High tolerance plants generate a complex and largely unexplored toolkit of secondary metabolites to manipulate soil contamination. Understanding these biochemical mechanisms could reveal potential pathways by which polluted soils could by rejuvenated, but assessment of root exuded metabolites is currently technically challenging and secondary metabolite content in the biomass of leading phytoremediation crops is still […]
