Catalysts known as zeolites are vital to fuel production and other processes. Coke deposits in zeolites are a costly problem in petroleum refinement and in petrochemical production. "Understanding coke molecules in zeolites will provide broad …
In fairy tales, magical spells can turn people and things to stone. In a desert in southeastern Washington state, it's a chemical reaction that converts carbon dioxide into stone. Researchers at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest …
Tools that track underground contaminants and speed carbon capture technology development are among the 100 most innovative scientific breakthroughs of the year, R&D Magazine has announced. The magazine named two technologies from the Department of …
It may sound like science fiction, but wastewater treatment plants across the United States may one day turn ordinary sewage into biocrude oil, thanks to new research at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. The technology, …
The state's three largest public research institutions have signed a Memorandum of Understanding, which expresses the intent of the parties to increase research collaborations on complex challenges and provide additional research and training …
Microbes have a remarkable ability to adapt to the extreme conditions in fracking wells, according to a study published in the October issue of Nature Microbiology. Scientists led by researchers at Ohio State University found that microbes actually …
A new agreement between the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and the University of Oregon will allow scientists to obtain joint appointments that bridge the two research institutions. The agreement paves the way for greater …
Nitrogen is essential for life, but nature's main source of nitrogen is the gas found in our atmosphere — a gas that does not react easily with other elements. Some specialized bacteria turn the air's nitrogen molecules into ammonia so that it can …
With each swish of a tail, scientists now have a tool that could study the movements of fish throughout their entire lives. The Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory developed a self-charging tracking tag for fish behavioral …
Rosemarie Truman, founder and former CEO of the Center for Advancing Innovation in Bethesda, Maryland, has been named director of innovation impact at the U.S. Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. Truman will bolster PNNL' …
The Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory has been working with industry partner, LanzaTech, to convert alcohols derived from captured carbon monoxide, a byproduct in the production of steel, into synthetic paraffinic kerosene, …
A building codes scientist at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory has been elected to the rank of fellow of the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE). Michael Rosenberg was …
The search for signs of ancient life on Mars has come to the U.S. Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, where an expert on rock chemistry and microbial signatures is part of a team that is investigating whether there has ever …
Simple cements are everywhere in construction, but researchers want to create novel construction materials to build smarter infrastructure. The cement known as mayenite is one smart material — it can be turned from an insulator to a transparent conductor …
Two scientists at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have been selected to join the Washington State Academy of Sciences. Suresh Baskaran and Jun Liu will join other scientists and engineers from across the state being …
Enabling fish to migrate past dams could cost a fraction of conventional fish ladders with the help of a new study of the so-called Salmon Cannon, which transports fish through a flexible tube that works by creating a small difference in pressure across …
American companies are increasingly making their own power — and sales — with wind turbines located near the factories and buildings that consume the power they make, concludes a report released today. The 2015 Distributed Wind Market Report offers the …
The Kansas prairie seems like the very picture of beauty and simplicity, with undulating fields of corn and wheat stretching as far as the eye can see. But below ground, the soil bears witness to the incredible diversity and chaos of life within even the …
While relentless bright light brings many forms of cyanobacteria to their knees — figuratively, of course — Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002 does the opposite, thriving and growing at a rate that far outpaces most of its peers. That makes the organism, commonly …
Electric cars with significantly smaller, lighter and less expensive batteries could be on the horizon if a new national research effort achieves its ambitious goal of significantly improving upon the batteries that power today's electric vehicles. …
