Through our experiences, it has been seen that various waste streams may have a deterioration impact on our existing reagents. Gaining a deeper understanding of solidification reagents on a molecular level will give us more insight into what may be causing the deterioration in reagent performance and find new products or formulations that will perform better in those problematic waste streams. Literature review and lab testing will be carried out to examine re, description french : Développement de réactifs pour améliorer les propriétés de matériau solidifié, expected results english : The purpose of IRAP Contributions to Firms is to support research, development, adoption and/or adaptation of innovative or technology-driven new or improved products, services or processes in Canada up to their commercialization, expected results french : Le PARI, par le biais des Contributions aux entreprises, vise à appuyer la recherche, le développement, l’adaptation et/ou l’adoption au Canada de produits, de services ou de processus novateurs ou axés sur des technologies nouvelles ou améliorées, et ce jusqu’à leur commercialisation, additional information english : nan, additional information french : nan, owner organization : nrc-cnrc, owner organization title : National Research Council Canada | Conseil national de recherches Canada
