Improve production capacity and process optimization.

The employee will be working on design aspects of engineering projects as directed by the company. This includes but is not limited to: Design and development of new machines, customers specific inquires, and any other mechanical engineering components.

Existing ring cutter technology is not meeting the needs of medical and rescue practitioners. Ring Rescue is developing a novel electrically assisted device that can cut any material, at a rate 8-25 X faster than existing technology. The innovation will be safe, simple to use, and require no physical effort on the part of the practitioner. Combined with the firm’s compression technology, a full suite ring removal solution will provide medical and rescue professionals complete confidence that any stuck ring can be removed quickly and easily.

Integrate the application with the payment systems of a banking provider.

The TRI-GEN approach to sustainable aquaculture is to identify and utilize physical characteristics that are unique to the local area. For Alberta there is the ability to produce natural foods for fish i.e. Gammarus shrimp, and also has a high Solar radiance and an abundance of freshwater ponds and dugouts for trout and integrated plant production.
Our objective is to utilize the above resources for the summer production of Rainbow trout and plant products for local market opportunities. Producing Rainbow trout with an integrated plant system using a modified net pen and innovative air lift technology will reduce GHG/kg produced.
The result is production of high value products produced in a sustainable manner.

Marine operations in ice-infested areas are subject to the appropriate ice management protocol to reduce downtime and infrastructure risk to offshore assets, and to protect this relatively pristine area from any environmental disaster. A physics-based computer simulation of the various ice management operations will minimize operational risk, enhance safety of the crews, and reduce carbon emissions by evaluating operational efficiency.

The project will enable the graduate to learn the complexities of nanomedicine development, characterization and testing as well as manufacturing of personalised gene therapies to address multiple age-related diseases.
