A PNNL team has developed an energy- and chemical-efficient method of separating valuable critical minerals from dissolved solutions of rare earth element magnets.
In a recent publication in Nature Communications, a team of researchers presents a mathematical theory to address the challenge of barren plateaus in quantum machine learning.
The surface oxygen functionality of graphene oxide may be tuned using ultraviolet light, affecting how differently charged ions move through the material.
Recycling polyolefin materials is challenging. One waste management strategy is plastic upcycling. New work demonstrates a single-step upcycling route coupling cracking and alkylation, recycling carbon and keeping valuable resources active.
PNNL played host in mid-May to the Artificial Intelligence for Robust Engineering & Science workshop, an annual event that explores advances in artificial intelligence
Practical decontamination of industrial wastewater depends on energy-efficient separations. This study explored using ionic liquids as part of the process, enabling efficient electrochemical separation from aqueous solutions.
PNNL recently partnered with Amazon Web Services for AWS GameDay, a gamified learning event that challenges participants to use AWS solutions to solve real-world technical problems in a team-based setting.
A simple gel-based system separates metals ions from a model solution of dissolved battery electrodes without the need for specialty chemicals, membranes, or toxic solvents.
An initiative from Washington State University and Snohomish County leaders is aiming to make Paine Field a nexus for testing and improving sustainable aviation fuels made from non-petroleum materials.
