The American Nuclear Society (ANS) presented the awards Thursday evening at the international conference on Inertial Fusion Science Applications (IFSA) in San Francisco. Moses was cited for his “leadership in the development and completion of the National Ignition Facility” (NIF). As principal associate director for NIF and Photon Science at Lawrence Livermore (LLNL), Moses is leading [...] In finally answering an elusive scientific question, researchers with the U.S. Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) have shown that the selective placement of strain can alter the electronic phase and its spatial arrangement in correlated electron materials. This unique class of materials is commanding much attention now because they can display properties [...] WASHINGTON –The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced today that it has identified 79 proposed surface coal-mining projects in Appalachian states for further, detailed reviews of their pending permits. The extended reviews will be carried out under an enhanced coordination process between EPA and the Army Corps of Engineers developed under an interagency Memorandum of Understanding [...] The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s GreenChill Advanced Refrigeration Partnership recognized six supermarkets last week for reducing their use of greenhouse gas refrigerants that deplete the Earth’s ozone layer and contribute to climate change. The Price Chopper store located in Colonie, NY received the Best of the Best award, which is given to the single store [...] The Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory has developed a reusable organic liquid that can pull harmful gases such as carbon dioxide or sulfur dioxide out of industrial emissions from power plants. The process could directly replace current methods and allow power plants to capture double the amount of harmful gases in a way [...] U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Secretary Steven Chu today announced the investment of up to $6.4 million, including $4.6 million from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, for four projects designed to advance research and development of next generation high-efficiency lighting. The selections announced today are part of DOE’s continuing work to accelerate progress toward creating [...] ARPA-E Encouraging Full Proposals for Transformational R&D Washington, DC – The Advanced Research Projects Agency – Energy (ARPA-E) of the U.S. Department of Energy has completed the evaluation of the Concept Papers received in response to its first Funding Opportunity Announcement released April 27, 2009. ARPA-E reviewed approximately 3,500 Concept Papers submitted for this FOA (DE-FOA-0000065). Since we are on the topic of Nuclear energy here is the latest scorecard from the U.S. Deparment of Energy. Nuclear Power Deployment Scorecard Powering Future Decades Current Scorecard – July 14, 2009 Shell recently opened its second hydrogen filling station in the greater New York City area. With a third due to open in the area later this month and one already operating there for more than a year, this is Shell’s first cluster of hydrogen filling stations. The station opening today – at JFK international airport – [...] |
