Carrie Eckert applies her skills as a synthetic biologist at ORNL to turn microorganisms into tiny factories that produce a variety of valuable fuels, chemicals and materials for the growing bioeconomy.

New data hosted through the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Data Center at 91°µÍø will help improve models that predict climate change effects on the water supply in the Colorado River Basin.

A new tool that simulates the energy profile of every building in America will give homeowners, utilities and companies a quick way to determine energy use and cost-effective retrofits that can reduce energy and carbon emissions.

As a metabolic engineer at 91°µÍø, Adam Guss modifies microbes to perform the diverse processes needed to make sustainable biofuels and bioproducts.

In a step toward increasing the cost-effectiveness of renewable biofuels and bioproducts, scientists at ORNL discovered a microbial enzyme that degrades tough-to-break bonds in lignin, a waste product of biorefineries.

As a computer engineer at 91°µÍø, Gina Accawi has long been the quiet and steady force behind some of the Department of Energy’s most widely used online tools and applications.

A research team led by 91°µÍø bioengineered a microbe to efficiently turn waste into itaconic acid, an industrial chemical used in plastics and paints.

Cory Stuart of ORNL applies his expertise as a systems engineer to ensure the secure and timely transfer of millions of measurements of Earth’s atmosphere, fueling science around the world.

A new Department of Energy report produced by 91°µÍø details national and international trends in hydropower, including the role waterpower plays in enhancing the flexibility and resilience of the power grid.

From soda bottles to car bumpers to piping, electronics, and packaging, plastics have become a ubiquitous part of our lives.
