Contribution: Industrial Research Assistance Program – Contributions to Organizations

Greenvi Corp.

$313,000.00

Membrane Development and Manufacturing Optimization

FY 2023-24 · 2023-04-01

Summary
Membrane technology is broadly utilized in desalination, water purification, and wastewater treatment in many industrial processes. Reverse osmosis (RO) process with the core of membranes has been recognized as a promising technology for seawater desalination and hardness removal; however, these membranes suffer from fouling. In this project, a simple, reliable, and easy-to-scale method will be developed to mitigate the fouling propensity of RO membranes with no adverse effect on permeability.

Description
Membrane technology is broadly utilized in desalination, water purification, and wastewater treatment in many industrial processes. Reverse osmosis (RO) process with the core of membranes has been recognized as a promising technology for seawater desalination and hardness removal; however, these membranes suffer from fouling. In this project, a simple, reliable, and easy-to-scale method will be developed to mitigate the fouling propensity of RO membranes with no adverse effect on permeability.
Description (French)
La technologie des membranes est largement utilisée pour le dessalement, la purification de l’eau et le traitement des eaux usées dans de nombreux processus industriels. Le processus d’osmose inversée (OI) avec le cœur des membranes a été reconnu comme une technologie prometteuse pour le dessalement de l’eau de mer et l’élimination de la dureté ; cependant, ces membranes souffrent de l’encrassement. Dans ce projet, une méthode simple, fiable et facile à mettre en œuvre sera développée pour atténuer la propension à l’encrassement des membranes d’osmose inverse sans effet négatif sur la perméabilité.
Expected Results
The purpose of IRAP Contributions to Organizations is to support Organizations in building and integrating the innovation capacity in Canada for the benefit of Firms in Canada, primarily SMEs and to support Organizations in providing innovation assistance services to SMEs in Canada.
Expected Results (French)
Le PARI, par le biais des Contributions aux organismes, vise à soutenir les organismes en les aidant à construire et à intégrer leur capacité d’innovation au Canada au bénéfice des entreprises canadiennes, et plus particulièrement des PME et à aider les organismes à offrir des services d’aide à l’innovation aux PME au Canada.
