The first wall and blanket of a fusion energy reactor must maintain structural integrity and performance over long operational periods under neutron irradiation and minimize long-lived radioactive waste.
ORNL has developed bacterial strains that can utilize a common plastic co-monomer as a feedstock. This will help enable modern, petroleum-derived plastics to be converted into value-added chemicals.
Due to a genes unique nucleotide sequences acquired through horizontal gene transfer, the gene has a transcriptional repressor activity and innate enzymatic role.
We have developed bacterial strains that can convert sustainable feedstocks and waste feedstocks into chemical precursors for next generation plastics.
A novel molecular sorbent system for low energy CO2 regeneration is developed by employing CO2-responsive molecules and salt in aqueous media where a precipitating CO2--salt fractal network is formed, resulting in solid-phase formation and sedimentation.
ORNL has identified a panel of novel nylon hydrolases with varied substrate and product selectivity.
Genetic modification of microbes that are thermophiles—ones that grow at elevated temperatures—is extremely challenging. Tools developed for E. coli, a typical host for protein production, typically do not function at elevated temperatures.
The invention provides a gene and methods for maintaining meiotic chromosomal architecture
An innovative system for automating the surveillance and manipulation of plant tissues using advanced machine vision and robotic tools.
High-performance cerium-based permanent magnet materials have been developed to reduce reliance on scarce rare-earth elements.
