A collaboration among PNNL, Washington State University, and Tsinghua University has led to the discovery of a mechanism behind the decline in performance of an advanced copper-based catalyst.
PNNL physical oceanographer Maggie McKeon will speak February 3 at the U.S. launch meeting for the United Nations’ Ocean Decade. She will present on improving diversity in the Superfund site workforce.
Through two U.S. Department of Energy funding calls awarded in 2020, PNNL is partnering with industry and academia to advance battery materials and processes.
Scientists have created a single-crystal, nickel-rich cathode that is hardier and more efficient than before—important progress on the road to better lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles.
Using public data from the entire 1,500-square-mile Los Angeles metropolitan area, PNNL researchers reduced the time needed to create a traffic congestion model by an order of magnitude, from hours to minutes.
PNNL scientists have developed a catalyst that converts ethanol into C5+ ketones that can serve as the building blocks for everything from solvents to jet fuel.
Researchers at PNNL have increased the conductivity of copper wire by about five percent via a process called Shear Assisted Processing and Extrusion. General Motors tested the wire for application in vehicle motor components.
Culminating 10 years of study, researchers at PNNL’s Marine and Coastal Research Laboratory developed a new predictive framework for estuarine–tidal river research and management.
