A new study suggests a potentially sweeter fate for all those heads and guts: They can be turned into a coal-like substance called hydrochar, which could be used as fuel or added to soil to improve fertility and sequester carbon (Energy Fuels 2015, DOI: 10.1021/acs.energyfuels.5b01671).</p> Wed, 16 Dec 2015 16:11:11 +0000 webfull 114640 at /channels PhD Oral Defense: Decision Support System for Irrigation Water Management /channels/event/phd-oral-defense-decision-support-system-irrigation-water-management-233024 <p>PhD Oral Defense of <strong>Olanike Aladenola, </strong>Department of Bioresource Engineering</p> Tue, 18 Feb 2014 16:44:58 +0000 webfull 101225 at /channels MALE CHICK CULLING IN EGG INDUSTRY COULD END, THANKS TO CANADIAN TECHNOLOGY /channels/news/male-chick-culling-egg-industry-could-end-thanks-canadian-technology-261483 &²¹³¾±è;±ô³Ù;±è&²¹³¾±è;²µ³Ù;Ìý&²¹³¾±è;±ô³Ù;/±è&²¹³¾±è;²µ³Ù; <p>Harry Pelissero is the general manager of Egg Farmers of Ontario, which has been working with Michael Ngadi, a professor of bioresource engineering at ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ University, to develop a machine that selects female eggs before they're hatched.</p> <p><a href="http://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/male-chick-culling-technology-1.3647228" target="_blank">Read more on CBC</a></p> &²¹³¾±è;±ô³Ù;±è&²¹³¾±è;²µ³Ù;Ìý&²¹³¾±è;±ô³Ù;/±è&²¹³¾±è;²µ³Ù; Thu, 23 Jun 2016 17:59:42 +0000 webfull 119580 at /channels PhD Oral Defense: Development and Optimization of Pyrolysis Biochar Production Systems towards Advanced Carbon Management /channels/event/development-and-optimization-pyrolysis-biochar-production-systems-towards-advanced-carbon-management-233664 <p>PhD Oral Defense of <strong>Baishali Dutta</strong>, Department of Bioresource Engineering</p> Mon, 24 Feb 2014 19:04:38 +0000 webfull 101317 at /channels Gestion des eaux de ruissellement - Montréal annonce un nouveau partenariat avec l'Université ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ afin d'identifier les meilleures pratiques de plantation d'arbres /channels/news/gestion-des-eaux-de-ruissellement-montreal-annonce-un-nouveau-partenariat-avec-luniversite-mcgill-af-267759 <p>Bioresource Engineering professors <strong>Grant Clark</strong>  and <strong>Shiv Prasher</strong>, along with colleagues <strong>Dr. Maryam Kargar</strong> (Postdoctoral Fellow and Project Manager), Masters student <strong>Marcelo Frosi</strong>, <strong>Dr.</strong></p> Wed, 19 Apr 2017 19:14:24 +0000 webfull 127173 at /channels PhD Oral Defense: Application of Electro-Technologies in the Processing of Flax and Hemp Stems /channels/event/phd-oral-defense-application-electro-technologies-processing-flax-and-hemp-stems-236649 <p>PhD Oral Defense of <strong>Gopu Raveendran Nair</strong>, <em>Department of Bioresource Engineering</em></p> Tue, 13 May 2014 19:41:25 +0000 webfull 102846 at /channels
