Application and optimization of molecular methods as an early predictor of cannabinoid content through the growing process of select cannabis cultivars in an industrial starter plant production

This project will allow Apollogreen and Loyalist College’s Applied Research Centre (ARC) to establish expertise based on a new analytical approach of cannabinoids at an early growth stage, allowing them to analyse and select cultivars to be commercially grown based on the sought after components for specific applications of licenced producers. This analytical process uses […]

Towards a circular end-to-end process for fully 3D printed footwear – assessment of additive manufacturing processes, material selection and mechanical characterization

The fashion industry has recently shifted toward better environmental practices but focus has been on apparel because shoes are complex products. ARSHAE, located in Montréal, proposes an end-to-end solution that accounts for the entire life cycle of shoes by building a closed loop system that enables zero waste. ARSHAE focuses on using ecological materials in […]

Sour and Sweet Corrosion Resistance of Alloys and Coatings

The oil and gas industry often contain a certain amount of CO2, H2S and chlorine compounds. H2S can cause sour corrosion and sulfide stress cracking (SSC) of stainless steels. Failures due to H2S are usually sudden with no warning. SSC is the worst type of corrosion in the presence of H2S. Many methods have been […]

AI-Based Fault Detection system for Mine Dewatering Systems

The removal and movement of water is an essential activity for the safe and productive operation of mines. In the mining industry pumps are often required to operate several km underground. If a pump were to fail in such a location, the results can be costly and potentially unsafe. It can be exceedingly difficult to […]
