The overall objectives of my research program are to (1) develop generic industry usable tools that allow for the design of efficient and sustainable closed-loop borehole heat exchangers within hydrogeological environments, and (2) develop methodologies for utilizing subsurface waste heat generated in bitumen (oil sands) recovery operations. The first objective is broad based and looks at bridging the current divide between hydrogeological based studies of heat transport and geothermal energy, and mechanical engineering based design of borehole heat exchangers. The second objective is specifically focused on the unique environment of bitumen recovery operations and involves both waste energy utilization and thermal remediation.

我的研究计划的总体目标是(1)开发通用的行业可用工具，以便在水文地质环境中设计高效和可持续的闭环式钻孔换热器，以及(2)开发利用沥青(油砂)回收作业中产生的地下余热的方法。第一个目标是基础广泛的，着眼于弥合目前基于水文地质学的热传输和地热能研究与基于机械工程的井下热交换器设计之间的鸿沟。第二个目标特别侧重于沥青回收作业的独特环境，涉及废能利用和热修复。
