Berkeley Lab Duct Sealing Innovation Saves Energy in Buildings Around the World
Fixing leaky heating and cooling ducts in buildings can be an expensive, labor-intensive process. Yet doing so can save significant amounts of energy. According to the Department of Energy, homes and buildings consume 40% of the nation’s energy, but an average of 30% of this energy is wasted. This wasted energy is largely due to air lost from small leaks in heating and cooling … [Read more...] about Berkeley Lab Duct Sealing Innovation Saves Energy in Buildings Around the World
Newomics – M3 Emitter
(updated Sept. 30, 2021) Researchers seeking to cure disease or address environmental and food safety hazards face a bottleneck in electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), which requires biospecimens be loaded and delivered to the machine one at a time. LBNL researchers set out to clear that expensive, time-consuming bottleneck with a multinozzle emitter array. … [Read more...] about Newomics – M3 Emitter
Graphene-Based Material Takes Audio Tech to the Next Level
August 26, 2021 Just as clunky cathode ray tube televisions were displaced in the 1980s by flat panel, vivid displays, today’s audio technology may soon be displaced by graphene-based audio tech. In 2014, principal investigator Alex Zettl and postdoctoral researcher Qin Zhou of Berkeley Lab and the University of California at Berkeley published a seminal paper about … [Read more...] about Graphene-Based Material Takes Audio Tech to the Next Level
