Congratulations to the University Research Centre on Aluminium (CURAL) at the Universit\u00e9 du Qu\u00e9bec \u00e0 Chicoutimi (UQAC) for receiving $20 million in government funding to expand and acquire state-of-the-art equipment. This will allow Quebec to continue innovating and developing knowledge in the field of aluminum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to this new equipment, it will be possible to improve processes to develop greener aluminum, for example.<\/span><\/span> The positive impact of this upcoming expansion extends far beyond the university, as CURAL is well-established in its community and has forged links with businesses in the Saguenay region, which will also be able to use this equipment for joint research.<\/span><\/span> Congratulations!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
