Nano-porous TiO2 Ceramics

Lead Institution
Washington State University
Principal Investigator
Amit Bandyopadhyay
Project type
Exploratory Research
At WSU, we are forming nano-porous TiO2 via anodizing Ti foils in different electrolytes. Our interest is to characterize these films using FESEM to understand the influence of processing variables…

Environmental Sensing, Metabolic Response,Regulatory Network (PNNL 42654, BES)

Lead Institution
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
Principal Investigator
James Fredrickson
Project type
Exploratory Research
HPLC analysis and quanitation of organic acids is a critical tool to track metabolic changes during growth in microbial cultures. Because are own HPLC system has ended it's useful life, Tom…

Project type
Exploratory Research
HPLC analysis and quanitation of organic acids is a critical tool to track metabolic changes during growth in microbial cultures. Because are own HPLC system has ended it's useful life, Tom…

Molecular Modeling

Lead Institution
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
Principal Investigator
M. Mayer-Cumblidge
Project type
Exploratory Research
We are working on the design and synthesis of Arsenic-derivatized dyes and crosslinkers which selectively bind multi-cysteine peptide motifs. These motifs can then be cloned into proteins of…

Purity analyses of DNA

Principal Investigator
James Kelly
Project type
Exploratory Research

SEM/EDS of Solid Oxide Fuel Cell seal materials

Lead Institution
US Department of Energy, Washington, DC
Principal Investigator
John Vetrano
Project type
Exploratory Research
The purpose of proposal is to examine the surface topography and composition of solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) seal assemblies. These assemblies have been produced and then tested. We want to…

Demonstration of the Capability of Mobility-Controlled-Flooding Technology to Overcome Heterogeneity Induced Bypassing in Subsurface Remediation (PNNL LDRD #90001
Overcoming Heterogeneity Induced Bypassing)

Lead Institution
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
Principal Investigator
Lirong Zhong
Project type
Exploratory Research
Introduction Heterogeneity induces bypassing of low-permeability zones in subsurface fluid flooding operations for remediation purposes. The contaminant in the bypassed areas is therefore…

Animation for Morphing Catalysis

Lead Institution
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
Principal Investigator
Michael Perkins
Project type
Exploratory Research
I would like to build an animation depicting research that Chuck Peden is conducting in the area of morphing catalysis.
