Reference number : GC-2017-Q3-00059, amendment number : , agreement type : G, recipient legal name : Pasca, Sorin (College of New Caledonia), recipient country : CA, recipient province : nan, recipient city : British Columbia|Colombie-Britannique, recipient postal code : nan, program name english : Engage Grants for colleges, program name french : Subventions d'engagement partenarial pour les collèges, program purpose english : The College of New Caledonia (CNC) and TS 2000-Star Vehicle Technologies Inc. (TS2000) are partnering to research the development of a pulse burner optimized for biofuel extracted through wood pyrolysis. The goal of this collaboration is to combine TS2000's experience in pulsating combustion with the CNC's expertise in both computer aided design and pyrolytic bio-oils for developing a prototype burner which will be using bio-oil instead of conventional fuels such as natural gas, oil or diesel. Development of this cost effective equipment will help TS2000 penetrate new markets, especially remote locations and communities interested in switching from fossil fuel to biofuel in various applications, including commercial boiler upgrades. _x000D_
_x000D_
Students and Faculty will be directly involved in designing, developing and testing the prototype. Students participating in the project will acquire enhanced technical skills in the following areas: (i) computer aided design (CAD), fine element analysis (FEA) and 3D printing for prototype design and fabrication, (ii) reducing the cost and improving reliability of technology associated to clean energy sources and (iii) reducing the negative environmental impact from the use of fossil fuel for energy generation._x000D_
