Stanford researchers have developed a novel electrode composed of copper-based catalyst and a carbon-based catalyst to directly convert CO2 into ethylene, a valuable carbon-based molecule.
Stanford researchers led by Dr. Arun Majumdar have developed photocatalysts combining transport- and reaction-selective nanostructures for direct methanol production.
Stanford researchers have discovered a new class of metallic glass alloys with superior properties such as low cost, high wear resistance, and electric conductivity comparable to graphite.
Antimicrobial peptoids are promising leads for novel antibiotics; however, their activity is often compromised under physiological conditions. Inventors at Stanford enhanced the efficacy of antimicrobial peptoids by using thiourea and thiourea derivatives.
Stanford researchers in the Swartz lab have proposed a method to synthesize metabolic cofactors from inexpensive substrates for protein synthesis and commodity production applications.
Stanford inventors have developed a cell-free method for carbon-negative biosynthetic production of commodity biochemicals by using hydrogen gas as a source of reducing equivalents.
Stanford researchers in the Swartz lab have developed a method for improving the productivity of biosynthetic processes via enzymatic detoxification of aberrant forms of NAD(P)H.
Chemical engineers at Stanford have developed miscible antifoams that are easy to incorporate and do not separate out from the target liquid during operation.
Stanford researchers in the WE3 and S3 Labs developed a cloud-based computation and predictive control platform for wastewater treatment facilities energy storage and energy generation. Wastewater treatment is energy and cost intensive.
Multiplexed analysis of biological components is critical for classifying molecular subtypes of heterogeneous tumors to provide patient-specific therapies.
Stanford researchers in the Kanan group have developed a patented electrolysis cell for generating and extracting concentrated liquid and gas product streams from CO and CO2.
Researchers at Stanford have developed a process for modifying metal powder stock to enable printing of high reflectivity metals using moderate laser powers (200-400 W) in commercially available printing systems (200-400W).
Stanford researchers have constructed a microbial cell factory by genetically modifying the bacterium Methylomicrobium alcaliphilum 20Z to convert methanol and methane into para-hydroxybenzoic acid (p-HBA).
