Industrial Technologies

The ORNL Industrial Technologies Program has made technological advances in industry that contribute to improved efficiency through decreased energy consumption, improved product quality, reduced equipment downtime, and decreased waste streams. As industry expenditures on nonproductive costs decrease, resources are made available for market expansion and investment in plant and capital equipment. ORNL's goal in research for the DOE Office of Industrial Technologies is to assist U.S. industry in capturing and maintaining global market share through technological improvements.
