HPC Wire: DOE Invests $75M to Strengthen Critical Minerals Supply Chain for US
Science Daily story about critical materials describes the Critical Materials Innovation (CMI) Hub, led by Ames National Laboratory
Ames National Laboratory will partner with eight other DOE National Laboratories to support the Critical Materials Supply Chain Research Facility recently announced by the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management. Ames Lab will lead the Critical Materials Refinery Center, one of four Centers to be established in the Facility.
At CMI Team member Oak Ridge National Laboratory, chemists have invented a more efficient way to extract lithium from mining sites, oil fields, used batteries
Postdoc researcher Sam Hunt, who is supported by the Institute for Cooperative Upcycling of Plastics (iCOUP) is featured in one of Argonne National Laboratory's Science 101 videos discussing circular economy.
Massimiliano “Max” Delferro, iCOUP deputy director and Argonne National Laboratory scientist, was elected as a 2024 AAAS Fellow.
This year, two researchers from Ames National Laboratory were elected by the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) as AAAS Fellows.
Scientists at the Critical Materials Innovation (CMI) Hub, led are using mechanochemistry to shake up the conventional understanding of chemical reactions, using mechanical forces that agitate, tumble, and smash solids to initiate chemical reactions. Their new process, MELLT, is a creative solution to increase and diversify the supply of lithium in the United States.
