Researchers at Argonne National Laboratory and the University of Chicago have developed a method to detect a group of chemicals known as PFAS, or “forever chemicals.”

Researchers at the Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and collaborating institutions recently built a generative AI model that can recreate molecular structures from the movement of the molecule’s ions after they are blasted apart by X-rays, a technique called Coulomb explosion imaging.

The three-year project aims to bring together industry and academia to strengthen the state’s economy through research and innovation

From mining to magnet manufacturing, the process for refining rare-earth elements is complex and intensive. The supply chain for such critical materials is dominated by China — and so is the oxalic acid needed for the separation and purification stages.

The researchers suggest that carbon removal can have clear benefits on the road to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, but it needs more oversight to be responsibly adopted at large scales.

A research team reveals that although aquatic biofilms known as periphyton can partially remove nutrients from hydrothermal carbonization aqueous phase (HAP), high concentrations disrupt microbial community structure, weaken ecological interactions, and reduce overall ecosystem multifunctionality.

The lawsuit comes after the government lost a key court battle to strip some $2 billion in federal funding from the Ivy League school.
