Développement d’un prototype pour séquestrer le CO2 à la cheminée d’un grand émetteur par carbonatation minérale de résidus miniers de silicate de magnésium

Depuis le protocole de Kyoto (1997) et la COP21 de Paris (2016), l’émission de gaz à effet de serre (GES) est devenue une préoccupation mondiale. Intrinsèquement liés à la croissance économique, les GES sont directement responsables du changement climatique. La solution proposée dans ce projet est de parvenir à séquestrer le CO2 émis par les […]

Développement d’un prototype pour séquestrer le CO2 à la cheminée d’un grand émetteur par carbonatation minérale de résidus miniers de silicate de magnésium – Year two

L’impact des gaz à effet de serre (CO2) sur les changements climatiques est devenu une préoccupation mondiale. Indispensable à l’économie du pays les industries sont de grandes émettrices de CO2 mais leur arrêt est inenvisageable. La solution proposée dans ce projet est de capter le CO2 directement dans les fumées émises par ces industries, afin […]

Synchronization of ovulation to improve the efficiency of an in vitro embryo production/embryo transfer program in commercial operations in cattle

In vitro embryo production and embryo transfer (IVP/ET) is a technique that has been developed in cattle for genetic selection to enable rapid improvement in commercially important traits. Technological advances have resulted in a significant increase in the commercial use of IVP/ET in recent years, and have made this one of the fastest growing sectors […]

Using multivariate deep-learning algorithms for automatic quality control of high-resolution MRI

NeuroRx is an imaging contract research organization (CRO) specialized in the central nervous system (CNS) that utilizes state-of-the-art digital image processing techniques to produce accurate and precise outcome measures for clinical trials of drugs in development. Prior to analysis, all scans must pass Quality Control (QC). The goal of this project will be to incorporate […]

Development and commercialization of novel reference material for food allergen and gluten proficiency testing

The planned research program aims to address an existing gap: the lack of commercial availability of reference materials for food allergens to be used in the context of analytical method development, validation and performance testing. In particular, naturally incurred samples representing food matrices where priority allergens are likely to occur, in a controlled and calibrated […]

Validation of food allergen analytical methods and their incorporation in food process control practices – aiming for more predictable, risk-based quality management systems for processed foods -Year2

The planned research aims to validate food allergen testing tools from r-Biopharm Canada, and their incorporation in novel quality-management systems used in food production. The first part of the project consists in developing validation criteria for allergen methods under the auspices of the Association of Official Analytical Communities (AOAC) and apply these new requirements for […]

Le phénomène des méga accords de libre-échange : enchevêtrements normatif et institutionnel

Depuis plusieurs décennies, les États concluent des accords régionaux de libre-échange afin de faire tomber les barrières au commerce. L’Organisation mondiale du commerce reconnaît et encourage ces accords en raison de leur capacité à faire croître davantage la libéralisation des échanges. Ces Accords font pour la plupart intervenir deux ou trois États limitrophes qui acceptent […]

Développement et implantation d’un modèle d’intervention pour le soutien à l’innovation dans les PME

L’innovation est une condition nécessaire à la compétitivité des entreprises. Dans une économie mondialisée, plus verte, où la concurrence est accrue, les entreprises doivent innover avec succès et en continu. Cela passe par le développement d’une capacité d’innovation qui, pour toute entreprise et tout intervenant en innovation, est un enjeu. La littérature montre que la […]
