Ecotera Energy's new microturbine-based engine promises to deliver high performance in a compact and energy-efficient package. The engine, based on a technology developed at ORNL and licensed to Ecotera, also boasts low emissions and quiet operation, making it ideal for a wide range of applications....
A change in agricultural policy focus could lead to greater energy security, lower greenhouse emissions and a cleaner environment, according to researchers at ORNL and the University of Tennessee. With a doubling of bioenergy crop yields in the United States and changes in payment programs, the nati...
A simple boarding pass could safeguard air travelers if an explosives detection system being developed by Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Mass Spec Analytical is adopted.With the mass spectrometry-based instrument, a passenger's ticket would become a passive sampling device that detects even a bi...
Cottonwoods, hybrid poplars and aspens could play a role in improving the environment, displacing imported oil and creating domestic jobs, but first scientists from the Department of Energy, Oak Ridge National Laboratory and around the world have to sequence the Populus genome.Trees like cottonwood...
Chemists at ORNL are the first to build a three-dimensional chain of spherical polymer particles with unique optical and physical properties they believe will be useful for probing properties of materials. The finding, to be published in Physical Review Letters, represents a big step toward fabricat...
ORNL's 3,500 strains of mice made at ORNL can be shared for studies among the seven partners in the Tennessee Mouse Genome Consortium because researchers were able to develop a way to transfer mouse stocks via embryo. Researchers could not simply send existing mice at ORNL to the other institutions ...
Oak Ridge National Laboratory researchers are testing a new wall system utilizing an extremely lightweight concrete building material that could be used in wall systems of future construction of homes and businesses.Researchers at ORNL's Buildings Technology Center, working with TVA and Babb Intern...
Scientists studying vehicle safety, fuel efficiency, traffic management and other transportation issues will now have improved access to state-of-the-art laboratories at the National Transportation Research Center.
The NTRC, located along Hardin Valley Road near Pellissippi Parkway in W...
Herb Mook is the recipient of the 2001 Director's Award for Outstanding Accomplishment in Science and Technology at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Mook received the laboratory's most prestigious scientific award at UT-Battelle's annual Awards Night ceremony. Mook was nominated for his cutting-edge re...
