Repurposing industrial wastes

Saskatchewan Polytechnic is a province-wide public polytechnic with campuses in Saskatoon, Regina, Moose Jaw, and Prince Albert, recognized for applied education and problem-driven research. Companies engage through co-located labs and technology access facilities for prototyping, testing, and validation, with faculty and student teams embedded through co-op and apprenticeship pathways. Proximity to Saskatchewan’s industrial base and advisory networks keeps projects aligned to operational needs and enables rapid piloting in real-world settings. Research is supported by competitive provincial and federal programs, including NSERC and the Canada Foundation for Innovation, often alongside NRC IRAP–supported SMEs. A dedicated applied research and technology transfer office streamlines agreements, IP, and commercialization, helping partners move from concept to implementation.
