Cooperative Agreement DEEE0011230

This federal Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (CFDA 81.086 - Conservation Research and Development) provides $1,875,000.00 to William Marsh Rice University for a project focused on improving the thermal properties of carbon nanotube filters (CNTF) for industrial heat exchange applications. The award aims to advance CNTF technology beyond the current state-of-the-art in order to enhance thermal effectiveness and reduce emissions for industrial decarbonization. The project leverages Rice University's existing CNTF fabrication and testing facilities. Additionally, Rice University has issued a $199,478 sub-award to Dexmat, Inc., a for-profit materials manufacturer, to develop enhanced thermal conductivity CNT fibers for advanced thermal management.
