Dynamic organic matter traits tied to reactions can surpass static descriptors in explaining decomposition rates and responses to environmental change.
Using an AI approach to combine outputs from microbial models and apply them as inputs to reactive-transport models reduces computational time by several orders of magnitude.
Integrating experiments and modeling show how a fungal exudate-inspired substrate mixture elicits an emergent growth phenotype and metabolic responses in Pseudomonas putida.
Uncovered how the choice of carbon source influences the stress tolerance, redox balance, and regulatory responses of yeast, which can help provide resilience against scale-up challenges.
PNNL has formed a partnership with the Orlando-based firm Refinity, which has licensed a key process from PNNL that will help the company convert mixed plastic waste into valuable industrial products like chemicals, plastics, and fuels.
