Transformations: Fundamental Catalysis Enabling Zero-Carbon-Footprint Future, Scale-up of Aviation Biofuels from Alcohols, Five Cents about Nickel Catalysts

Transformations is produced by the Institute for Integrated Catalysis at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory.

The August 2016 issue of the Institute for Integrated Catalysis' (IIC's) Transformations recognizes innovation in catalysis. The lead story, written by IIC Director Johannes Lercher, describes the potential of catalysis to enable a zero-carbon-footprint future. Also featured is a milestone reached in aviation biofuels by Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and industry partner LanzaTech.

This issue also contains an article on nickel catalysis research that appeared in the Spring 2016 issue of Frontiers in Energy Research, an online newsletter that supplies news and information about the Department of Energy's Energy Frontier Research Centers.
