PNNL will provide technical support to finalists in the Incubate stage and to Grand Prize Winners following the Pitch contest stage of the Fish Protection Prize competition, which is now accepting submissions.

Researchers have identified two processes responsible for fracturing rock at lower pressures for geothermal energy production using PNNL’s fracturing fluid, StimuFrac™.

The world’s largest scientific society honored Sue B. Clark, a PNNL and WSU chemist, for contributions toward resolving our legacy of radioactive waste, advancing nuclear safeguards, and developing landmark nuclear research capabilities.

Clarivate Analytics released its updated list of Highly Cited Researchers on November 18, 2019. 17 PNNL researchers made the list.

PNNL’s Nuclear Process Science Initiative (NPSI) has developed a book that examines processes used to separate nuclear materials.

PNNL and Argonne researchers developed and tested a chemical process that successfully captures radioactive byproducts from used nuclear fuel so they could be sent to advanced reactors for destruction while also producing electrical power.

Seventeen teams from regional colleges and universities gathered at PNNL Nov. 16 to put their cyber skills to the test by protecting critical energy infrastructure against simulated cyberattacks as part of DOE's CyberForce Competition.

The Powering the Blue Economy Ocean Observing Prize is now accepting applications for its first stage, the Discover Competition.

In the third year of the DISCOVR Consortium project, the consortium team has identified an algal strain that progressed successfully through multiple evaluation phases.

Pumped-storage hydropower offers the most cost-effective storage option for shifting large volumes of energy. A PNNL-led team wrote a report comparing cost and performance factors for 10 storage technologies.

A new Co-Optima report describes an assessment of 400 biofuel-derived samples and identifies the top ten candidates for blending with petroleum fuel to improve boosted spark ignition engine efficiency.

New PNNL research shows that a pairing of humble minerals outshines other reactive materials when it comes to producing hydrogen.

Researchers at PNNL have solved a mystery for a chemical reaction essential for fuel and fertilizer production.

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory is leading efforts to address next-generation computing’s critical role in protecting the nation from cybersecurity threats.

PNNL researchers are developing the only tool that can control large-scale distributed energy resources in real time.

Nitrogen oxides, also known as NOx, form when fossil fuels burn at high temperatures. When emitted from industrial sources such as coal power plants, these pollutants react with other compounds to produce harmful smog.

Researchers are seeking to better understand how nitrogenase acts as a catalyst to break down nitrogen.

PNNL’s autonomous fish body double, Sensor Fish, and the miniature version, Sensor Fish Mini, were used to evaluate a special screen. Researchers found the screen provides safe downstream passage for fish at irrigation structures.

Researchers at PNNL have developed a model that predicts outcomes from the algae hydrothermal liquefaction process in a way that mirrors commercial reality much more closely than previous analyses.

PNNL’s Tim Johnson and lead researcher Tanya Myers were recently selected for the Applied Spectroscopy William F. Meggers Award.
