Researchers at PNNL and their collaborators have made a significant improvement to a catalyst that is more rugged and can reduce tailpipe pollution at lower temperatures than existing methods.
Several years ago, a relatively new catalyst for vehicle emission control began showing failure. A team at PNNL found that this seemingly suicidal catalyst wasn’t actually self-destructing but was the victim of an external assailant.
A new technology that offers a novel way to manufacture extrusions with unprecedented improvements in material properties recently received a U.S. patent.
Installing new access holes (up to 6 feet in diameter) could reduce the overall time and cost to retrieve waste from Hanford's underground storage tanks, according to a structural analysis of the tank domes by PNNL and Becht Engineering.
PNNL leads a consortium to help find the best algae strains for biofuels and bioproducts to reduce the cost of producing bioenergy from algae feedstocks.
Aluminum oxyhydroxide (boehmite) nanoplatelets align and attach to form neatly ordered stacks, a novel findings that involves both experimental and computational research.
A process for converting carbon-rich pollution to jet fuel powered a commercial flight for the first time, marking history and ushering in a new era for low-carbon aviation.
