Alberta University Mechanical Engineering professor and member of Green-SEAM, André McDonald, has been awarded an Alberta Innovates Climate Change Innovation and Technology Framework (CCITF) grant for $100, 000.
Professor McDonald will use his Climate Change Innovation and Technology Framework (CCITF) grant to develop and test functional coatings for heat exchangers that will be placed inside exhaust flues and gas stacks. Placing the specially-coated exchangers in flues and stacks will turn otherwise wasted heat energy into clean electricity.
