Coffee brewing process generates large amounts of spent coffee grounds (SCG). SCGs are often disposed as general garbage and transported to landfills, where they produce methane, a greenhouse gas 25 times more powerful than carbon dioxide, contributing to global warming. Hence, an efficient waste management system is important for managing such waste. An efficient waste […]

Le plus grand défi de l’entreprise est la sous utilisation des systèmes d’information dans la mise en œuvre de leur planification stratégique et la réalisation des activités. L’objectif sera porté sur la création d’outils qui permettront l’autonomie, l’efficacité et la confiance envers les analyses et ainsi, améliorer le processus décisionnel et opérationnel de l’entreprise. Pour […]

Electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircrafts are being developed to revolutionize the transportation industry. They fly over traffic industry to their destination, drastically reducing commuting time. Limosa Inc. is a leading company to design and manufacture eVTOLs in Canada. This research is devoted to design, analyze and manufacture a composite initially curved wing-stabilizer of […]

This project aims at developing an innovative and efficient marketing strategy for acquiring customers and building a good customer relationship which would help Momentum Materials Solutions to overcome the market-entry barrier and achieve its sales goal.

The proposed project is to develop a comprehensive tool for mathematical modeling of the hydraulics and biochemical conversions in the sewer network. This tool will be used for the optimization of the control strategy of the chemicals dosing in sewer networks to efficiently and economically mitigate the harmful emissions, such as hydrogen sulfide and greenhouse […]

Fort Nelson & its surrounding area have been devastated economically by recent changes to their Gas Industry leaving more than 1000 well sites abandoned and not restored. Currently, the area is looking to explore other natural resources in an attempt to save their livelihoods. A previous MITACs partnership with Mindbody Networks Inc. (2018-2020) revealed several […]

Notre projet de recherche consiste à fabriquer des panneaux rigides et transparents pour concevoir un nouveau modèle de serre ”verte” et intelligente adaptée au climat froid du Québec. En collaboration de partenaires industriels, nous recyclerons les plastiques comme le polyéthylène et le poly(métacrylate de méthyle), plus communément appellé plexiglas, à partir de sources fiables et […]

The aviation industry is a significant contributor to anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, and the influence of these emissions is exacerbated by the fact that they are emitted at high altitudes. This project advances the development of fully electric Urban Air Mobility (UAM) systems, which have the potential to significantly reduce emissions relative to existing jet […]

The PDF will start by validating the use of the open-source Stanford University Unstructured (SU2) RANS-based CFD solver for rotorcraft design. This includes generating a mesh and configuration file with SU2 and performing a grid convergence study to validate SU2 and the chosen turbulence models against the reference experimental data. Following this, PDF will generate […]

Energy storage technology is critical for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and transitioning to renewable energy and should be designed to suit the cold environment in Canada. In collaboration with Atlas Power Technologies Inc., a B.C.-based clean technology company, Dr. Liu’s group will design and build an aqueous zinc-ion capacitor (AZIC) technology with high-power, intrinsic safety, […]

L’ensemble de la filière agricole est confronté aux maladies fongiques et les phénomènes de résistances face aux fongicides qui en découlent. Depuis 1990, des méthodes de Lutte Antiparasitaire Intégrée (LAI) tendent à faire évoluer les pratiques agricoles en prenant en compte l’apparition de ces résistances et les quantités d’intrants appliqués en champs pour prévenir les […]

The objective of this project is to help reduce the environmental impacts of automotive painting operation by correlating changes in paint quality, transfer efficiency, and VOC and GHG emissions with droplet size distributions and the spray pattern produced by Electrostatic Rotating Bell atomizers. During the project, data will be collected using the innovative Mazlite platform […]
