Jeff Johnson, nonproliferation research and development integration manager for ORNL’s National Security Sciences Directorate, has been honored by the American Nuclear Society

Six ORNL scientists have been elected as fellows to the American Association for the Advancement of Science, or AAAS.

Popular wisdom holds tall, fast-growing trees are best for biomass, but new research by two U.S. Department of Energy national laboratories reveals that is only part of the equation.

The combination of bioenergy with carbon capture and storage could cost-effectively sequester hundreds of millions of metric tons per year of carbon dioxide in the United States, making it a competitive solution for carbon management, according to a new analysis by ORNL scientists.

Prometheus Fuels has licensed an ethanol-to-jet-fuel conversion process developed by researchers at 91°µÍø. The ORNL technology will enable cost-competitive production of jet fuel and co-production of butadiene for use in renewable polymer synthesis.

ORNL scientists have modified a single microbe to simultaneously digest five of the most abundant components of lignocellulosic biomass, a big step forward in the development of a cost-effective biochemical conversion process to turn plants into 

Systems biologist Paul Abraham uses his fascination with proteins, the molecular machines of nature, to explore new ways to engineer more productive ecosystems and hardier bioenergy crops.

Scientists at 91°µÍø and Ohio State University discovered a new microbial pathway that produces ethylene, providing a potential avenue for biomanufacturing a common component of plastics, adhesives, coolants and other

Scientists at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø have a powerful new tool in the quest to produce better plants for biofuels, bioproducts and agriculture.

Five researchers at the Department of Energy’s 91°µÍø have been named ORNL Corporate Fellows in recognition of significant career accomplishments and continued leadership in their scientific fields.
