Marine oil spills carry substantial environmental, economic and health impacts. Argonne National Laboratory’s (ANL) invention, the Oleo Sponge, offers promise for dramatically improving our ability to combat this problem. The Oleo Sponge provides critical advantages over industry-standard...

Sandia has developed an energy monitoring device that measures energy from liquid flow systems (e.g. solar systems) using a simple technique that senses when the system is running and then estimates the BTU energy production. Current energy meters must be installed into the system to measure how...

Idaho National Laboratory (INL) created a novel method and device for secure, high-density storage of tritium. The high-density tritium is bonded with carbon by irradiating an intercalated precursor into tritium bonded with carbon in a substrate. Existing solutions to safely secure tritium result...

Los Alamos is interested in partnering with companies to develop its ultrasonic capabilities for biofuels production applications. Los Alamos has developed ultrasonic methods for processes such as algae separation and concentration. A principal challenge in algal biofuel production is separating...

Laboratory: National Cancer Institute Invention: A new strategy based on RNA/DNA hybrid nanoparticles, which generally can be used to trigger multiple functionalities inside diseased cells, is presented. Individually, each hybrid is functionally inactive, and functional representation can only be...

Summary: Novel concept for significantly increased drug retention in breast cancer patients, resulting in more efficacious cancer therapy Status : The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is looking for a partner for further development and commercialization of this technology through a license, and...

Scientists at NASA’s Glenn Research Center have developed a narrow-beam, multi-frequency microwave radiometer that provides real time surveillance of atmospheric conditions, offering continuous measurements of humidity and liquid water aloft. Combined with other sensors, the device can be...

Many communication systems employ multi-channels that transmit and receive a common signal. In these systems, the common signal is combined at the receiver to achieve maximum channel capacity. During the combining of such signals the delay and phase parameters are estimated based on a convolution...
