Brookhaven synchrotron catalysis consortium receives 3-year funding renewal

At Brookhaven, USA, the synchrotron catalysis consortium (SCC) promotes the utilization of synchrotron techniques to perform cutting-edge catalysis nanoscience research. The activities include dedicated beam time for X-ray absorption spectroscopy experiments at beamlines X18B and X19A at the National Synchrotron Light Source, the assistance of research staff in the set-up of experiments and data analysis, training courses and help sessions etc. Recently, the U.S. Department of Energy has decided to renew a three-year, $1 million grant.
