WASHINGTON, April 27 (TNSres) -- The U.S. Department of Energy Pacific Northwest National Laboratory issued the following abstract of a journal article: * * * Abstract Structures for Lossless Ion Manipulations (SLIM) technology has demonstrated high resolving power ion mobility separation and flexibility to integrate complex ion manipulations into a single experimental platform. To enable IMS separations, trapping/accumulating ions inside SLIM (or in-SLIM) prior to injection of a packet for s  more

WASHINGTON, April 27 (TNSres) -- The U.S. Department of Energy Pacific Northwest National Laboratory issued the following abstract of a journal article: * * * Abstract On the path to a net-zero-carbon economy, large-scale energy storage will be an essential part of a renewable energy system. Hydrogen generated from renewable or zero-carbon sources has significant potential as an energy storage medium, by allowing for long-duration and high-capacity energy storage. At the volumes anticipated,   more

WASHINGTON, April 27 (TNSres) -- The U.S. Department of Energy Pacific Northwest National Laboratory issued the following abstract of a journal article: * * * Abstract The pressure vessels needed to store hydrogen for next-generation hydrogen fuel cell vehicles are expected to be a substantial portion of the total system mass, volume, and cost. Gravimetric capacity, volumetric capacity, and cost per kilogram of usable hydrogen are key performance metrics that the U.S. Department of Energy (DO  more

WASHINGTON, April 27 (TNSres) -- The U.S. Department of Energy Pacific Northwest National Laboratory issued the following abstract of a journal article: * * * Abstract Recently, aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) have become increasingly attractive as grid-scale energy storage solutions due to their safety, low cost, and environmental friendliness. However, severe dendrite growth, self-corrosion, hydrogen evolution, and irreversible side reactions occurring at Zn anodes often cause poor cyclab  more
