Veterans Day recognizes all the men and women who served in our armed forces and offers us a chance to thank our veterans for their service to our nation.
NETL is fortunate to have a robust cadre of veterans on our team, and I’m honored to recognize their service, along with the millions of other veterans across our nation who have selflessly served and defended our nation, our freedoms and our way of life.
NETL will soon have the opportunity to share its research initiatives in the field of rare earth elements (REEs) and critical minerals (CMs) with the greater mining and engineering communities when Mary Anne Alvin presents before the Society for Mining, Metallurgy & Exploration (SME). Her acceptance of the nomination to be a 2021-2022 SME Henry Krumb Lecturer will enable her to present research and findings of the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM) with SME’s members.
The October 2021 edition of the SSAE Newsletter provides updates about recent research initiatives undertaken within NETL’s Strategic Systems Analysis and Engineering (SSAE) directorate.

This month’s edition highlights include:
NETL’s ongoing water-energy research projects, including efforts to extract critical minerals (CMs) from water and other waste streams in support of the Administration’s work to revitalize coal, oil and gas, and powerplant communities impacted by the transition to clean energy, are highlighted in the latest edition of Water-Energy Nexus News.
Leaders of the NETL Regional Workforce Initiative (RWFI) will detail the state of the energy landscape across the Appalachian region during the 2021 U.S. Energy Jobs and Employment Report (USEER) Briefing webinar scheduled 11 a.m. to noon Tuesday, Nov. 2.
Funding Addresses Urgent Need for Global Leadership and Collaboration on Deployment of Durable Carbon Dioxide Removal
To meet aggressive decarbonization goals set by the Biden Administration in the fight against climate change, NETL has developed toolsets such as the Lab’s CO2-SCREEN (Storage prospeCtive Resource Estimation Excel aNalysis) to advance carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology development and deployment.
The Energy Data eXchange (EDX), an NETL-developed virtual library and data laboratory built to advance fossil energy and environmental research and development (R&D), celebrates its 10th anniversary this month. EDX supports the entire lifecycle of data by offering secure, private collaborative workspaces to help scientists maximize their research potential and further critical technology advancements.
The NETL research team behind the development of Multi-functional Sorbent Technology (MUST) has earned a prestigious R&D 100 Award for its game-changing suite of low-cost, versatile sorbents that is highly effective in cleaning contaminated waterways and removing metals from electronic and pharmaceutical production processes.
NETL presents the latest edition of its publication that showcases research on emerging energy technologies. NETL Edge shares the latest developments the Lab’s mission to drive innovation and deliver solutions for an environmentally sustainable and prosperous energy future.
