Funding will help continue research on renewable, organic, energy storage.
WKAR interviews Tom Guarr on his research in the Organic Energy Storage Lab at MSU Bioeconomy Institute.
Will spend the next year at Argonne National Lab.
Durable Organic Redox Systems for Practical Energy Storage Applications Tom Guarr, Research Director, MSU Bioeconomy Institute Presentation to the Detroit Section of the Electrochemical Society Abstract: Free radicals get a lot of bad press. They are often blamed for everything from aging to cancer while rarely getting credit for any positive contributions or, for that matter, life itself. Organic Chemistry textbooks continue…
Finding more efficient ways to harness and store renewable energy is the goal of the Michigan State University Bioeconomy Institute in Holland, Michigan. Spartan researchers are creating a cheaper and more durable version of a redox flow battery, which can store energy from the sun and wind. Currently in the prototypephase, the device could one day open the door to large-scale operations…
