A sailor for 40 years, James E. Holm says he has watched the sea and coastline become more and more polluted

Low-cost device has the potential to provide developing countries with clean water

Results will guide design of improved catalysts for transforming pollutant to useful chemicals

Biomass has been a source of heat and energy since the beginning of recorded history

Berkeley Lab researchers help to map iron-platinum particle in unprecedented detail

Researchers find the key to speeding up the rate of reaction of a potential catalyst for energy storage lies in making the reactive parts of the catalyst move more slowly

Introducing such groups to potential drugs could make them more effective

“…new iron catalyzed reaction could prove to be a thousand times cheaper than an equivalent process…”

Experiments at Berkeley Lab confirm that structural defects at the periphery are key in catalyst function

Finding may help researchers fine-tune metal-oxide catalysts to enhance energy storage technology
