Rotational Hammer Riveting, developed by PNNL, joins dissimilar materials quickly without preheating rivets. The friction-based riveting enables use of lightweight magnesium rivets and also works on aluminum and speeds manufacturing.
IDREAM study characterizes chemical species and mechanisms that control aluminum salt and mineral crystallization for nuclear waste retrieval, processing.
2021 marks the largest cohort of PNNL authors and co-authors to be recognized at annual Waste Management Symposia for environmental management research.
New study elucidates the complex relaxation kinetics of supercooled water using a pulsed laser heating technique at previously inaccessible temperatures.
Three recent doctoral graduates are beginning their research careers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory after completing the WSU-PNNL Distinguished Graduate Research Program this spring.
Researchers gained insight into the interfacial radiation chemistry of radioactive waste sludge through studies of surface functional groups on model aluminum-containing solids
IDREAM researchers have discovered the chemical processes that underpin gibbsite solubility in sodium hydroxide, including sodium nitrate and sodium nitrite interactions.
Three unused, 48,000-pound stainless steel canisters arrived at PNNL, bringing the chance to deepen research in spent nuclear fuel storage and transportation.
Joint appointee and chief scientist for the Solid Phase Processing Science Initiative at PNNL Suveen Mathaudhu has been awarded a Brimacombe Medal by The Minerals & Materials Society.
On the looming 10th anniversary of the Fukushima disaster at the Daiichi Power Station in Japan, PNNL looks back at the science and solidarity it has shared with Fukushima and its nuclear cleanup effort.
Beginning in 2021, PNNL chemical physicist Bruce Kay begins a three-year term as an AVS trustee, part of a six-member committee responsible for overseeing the administration of student scholarships and major society awards.
As COVID-19 was limiting in-person contact, halting travel, and creating additional barriers, researchers at PNNL were working to find solutions on how they could still get work done while establishing new safety protocols.
