Making existing buildings more airtight is critical in reducing the nation's energy consumption and carbon output. Most current methods of locating building leakage sites are disruptive to occupants and none of the methods can measure the flow of individual leakage sites.
We have developed bacterial strains that can convert sustainable feedstocks and waste feedstocks into chemical precursors for next generation plastics.
ORNL has identified a panel of novel nylon hydrolases with varied substrate and product selectivity.
Building Science Advisor is a web-based tool that allows users to quickly and reliably evaluate the moisture durability of their building wall designs and select the most energy-efficient and moisture-safe design.
Technologies for optimizing prefab retrofit panel installation using a real-time evaluator is described.
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.
This solid-state thermal switch can significantly increase the functions of the thermal mass in buildings by actively controlling the thermal resistivity of insulation layers to optimize the energy storage and utilization to shed, shift, and shape HVAC loads on demand.
There is a critical need for new antiviral drugs for treating infections of severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2).
The invention provides on-line analysis of droplets for mass spectrometry.
The interface gasket for building envelope is designed to enhance the installation of windows and other objects into building openings.
