The proposed research and tools instrument grant aims at the acquisition of basic equipment essential for our research tasks relating to the development of processes for decontamination, treatment and value-addition of various types of wastewaters and wastewater sludges of industrial and municipal origin. The proposed equipment is an essential tool to perform numerous screening studies which will eventually lead to bench scale and field application. The proposed equipment will serve the participating researchers in following ways: a) controlled environmental chambers for microbial growth screening studies for production of different value-added products; b) preparation of different microbial, such as bacterial, yeast and fungal inocula for bench scale fermenters; c) biodegradation studies of different toxic organic compounds using pure and/or mixed microbial consortia; d) strain maintenance and fluorescence studies of phytoplanktons; e) shake flask carbon reduction studies for greenhouse gas analysis and; f) preparation of seed inoculum for wastewater treatment reactors. The proposed refrigerated incubator-shaker system will be installed in the environmental biotechnology laboratory of INRS-ETE. The equipment will be made available to the collaborating researchers and other researchers of the center on priority and reservation basis. The operation and maintenance costs will be covered from the operational budget of INRS-ETE and various governmental grants (NSERC, FQRNT, CFI) and industries.

建议的研究及工具拨款，旨在购置基本许褚，以进行我们的研究工作，有关的研究工作是发展各种工业及市政废水及污水污泥的净化、行程及增值程序。建议的设备是一个必不可少的工具，进行大量的筛选研究，最终将导致实验室规模和现场应用。拟议的设备将以下列方式为参与研究的研究人员服务：a）用于微生物生长筛选研究的受控环境室，以生产不同的增值产品; B）为实验室规模的发酵罐制备不同的微生物，如细菌、酵母和真菌接种物; c）使用纯的和/或混合的微生物联合体对不同的有毒有机化合物进行生物降解研究; d）植物毒素的菌株维持和荧光研究; e）用于温室气体分析的摇瓶碳减少研究; f）用于废水处理反应器的种子接种物的制备。拟议的冷冻培养箱-振荡器系统将安装在INRS-ETE的环境生物技术实验室。这些设备将优先提供给合作研究人员和中心的其他研究人员。运营和维护费用将由INRS-ETE的业务预算和各种政府赠款（NSERC，NERNT，CFI）和行业支付。
