Focus Will Be On The Development Of Sustainable Aero-Propulsion Systems
The holiday season is here, bringing with it the busiest airports of the year. Unfortunately, this time of friends, family and festivities comes at a price. World air traffic, which is growing by 4 to 5 percent each year, produces more than 2 percent of all human activity-related greenhouse gases. Francois Garnier, a faculty researcher at the Ecole de technologie superieure (ETS), plans to help resolve part of this problem by reducing fine and ultrafine particles emissions from aircraft engines at their source.
