RAID arrays are popular in high-end (server class) and mass consumer computer systems due improved performance and/or reliability characteristics they provide.
The present invention relates to high performance low cost thermoelectric materials for electrical power generation. The new thermoelectric materials are stable cubic compounds having optimum performance above room temperature.
Microbial ethanol tolerance has been thought to be a complex and likely a multigenic trait. To date, little progress has been made in identification of key genetic changes that confer enhanced ethanol tolerance.
Recent advancements in nanostructural engineering offer great potential for the design, fabrication and creation of novel ordered structures with predictable physical and chemical properties for energy related technologies.
The separation of low molecular weight organics using a robust inorganic nanoporous membrane with tailored properties is an innovative approach for the high temperature pretreatment of cellulosic biomass.
Practices are described for preparing fine-grain stress-tolerant, brittle, doped semiconductor thermoelectric elements better suited to withstand thermal and mechanical loads without cracking or fracture.
Helium-3 is now so scarce as to be practically unavailable. Boron-10 is a well-known neutron converter isotope with energetic charged daughter particles. All known boron gaseous boron compounds are highly toxic and thus considered unsuitable for widespread deployment.
Cermet formulations are provided for integrated waste forms that comprise a composite of tailored ceramic phases encapsulated in a special metal matrix. The ceramic phases immobilize certain radioisotopes in a stable, low-leachability chemical form. The metal
This invention provides a concept and route to fabrication of a Fully-Ceramic, silicon carbide (SiC) matrix, Micro-encapsulated nuclear fuel (FCM). The described FCM has moderate thermal conductivity and is repository stable.
This invention disclosure describes the use ORNL’s superhydrophobic powders in the evaporative desalination process.
