New facility that will accelerate energy storage innovation and make the nation’s power grid more resilient, secure and flexible has been given the green light to proceed by the U.S. Department of Energy.

PNNL researchers have developed a new class of chemistry focused on carbon capture technology and made incremental strides in driving down costs.

PNNL led a multi-institutional effort to design a highly active and more durable catalyst made from cobalt, which sets the foundation for fuel cells to power transportation, stationary and backup power, and more.

Sharon Hammes-Schiffer, deputy director of the Center for Molecular Electrocatalysis (CME), has received awards from both the Royal Society of Chemistry and the American Chemical Society.

In a new review, PNNL researchers outline how to convert stranded biomass to sustainable fuel using electrochemical reduction reactions in mini-refineries powered by renewable energy.

The three-year project funded by DOE’s Basic Energy Sciences program will focus on using electrochemistry to capture ambient carbon dioxide.

PNNL materials scientist Ram Devanathan named Fellow and chemist Dave Heldebrant keynotes at the American Chemical Society (ACS) Fall 2020 meeting.

Pacific Northwest marsh carbon stocks are twice the global average. Long-term sea-level rise impacts will likely decrease ecosystem carbon stocks.

Jian Liu, a chemical engineer at PNNL, was selected as co-editor for the Elsevier book, Nanoporous Materials for Molecule Separation and Conversion.

Deepika Malhotra, an organic chemist at PNNL, will lend her expertise to help shape the content and quality of Pollutants a new, interdisciplinary, open access, journal focusing on a range of environmental science research.

Malhotra, a chemist, will apply her expertise on designing and creating modular solvents for carbon capture, acid gas separations, catalysis, and rare earth metal extractions to provide constructive review for the submitted manuscripts.

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

Geochemistry postdoctoral research assistant Quin R.S. Miller has been elected to a three-year term on the Clay Minerals Society Council.

Researchers at the Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and Sandia National Laboratories have joined forces to reduce costs and improve the reliability of hydrogen fueling stations.

Many industries are increasingly looking at hydrogen as a relatively new but efficient, clean, and quiet power source.
