The second annual Kentucky Innovator Challenge will take place on Thursday, April 11 starting at 8:30 a.m. in Ballrooms 212 A&B in the Gatton Student Center.
Researchers from UK's Center for Applied Energy Research are exploring a new way to utilize CO2 to improve the performance of cement and concrete, seeking more environmentally friendly solutions.
Researchers at the University of Kentucky Center for Applied Energy Research (CAER) have developed a method to turn Kentucky waste coal into valuable carbon products.
Alicia Gregory, director of Research Communications, sits down with four UK leaders to learn more about the recently announced eighth Research Priority Area in Materials Science and its connection to the Chips and Science Act of 2022.
Groundbreaking energy research that could lead to the first-of-its-kind deployment of carbon capture technology at a natural gas combined-cycle power plant is underway in Kentucky.
Coal-to-carbon fiber research shows great promise to positively impact the nation’s sluggish coal industry. In 2019, U.S. coal production, consumption and employment reached their lowest levels in 40 years.
Kunlei Liu, associate director for research at the UK Center for Applied Energy Research (CAER) and associate professor in the UK College of Engineering, has been named a Fellow of the National Academy of Inventors (NAI).
The UK Center for Applied Energy Research (CAER) has received a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) grant to transform coal tar pitch into high-value carbon fiber for use in aircraft, automobiles, sporting goods and other high-performance materials.
The University of Kentucky Center for Applied Energy Research (CAER) is one of eight entities to be selected by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to receive federal funds for research and development in "Novel and Enabling Carbon Capture Transformational Technologies" to address challenges and knowledge gaps associated with reducing the cost of carbon capture.
The project is part of DOE’s Carbon Capture Program, which is developing transformational, step-change, low-cost capture processes and enabling technologies that will maximize the efficiency of our nation's fossil-based power generation infrastructure.
