Virtual activities celebrating the benefits of nuclear science and technology held for National Science Week

Successful synthesis of nano-material that improves catalytic converter efficiency.

Technology for enclosed spaces recently won global COVID19 NASA hackathon

The Multi-wavelength absorption black carbon instrument (MABI), a technology designed and built at ANSTO to measure black carbon in the atmosphere is now commercially available from Thomson Environmental Systems.

ANSTO has put together a robust multidisciplinary approach to understanding the impacts of nanomaterials, investigating a common food additive, E171 titanium dioxide, used primarily as a colouring agent in everyday foods. 

The Australian Synchrotron is a source of powerful X-rays and infrared radiation that can be used for a wide range of scientific and technical purposes. Synchrotron X-rays are millions of times brighter than those produced by conventional X-ray machines in laboratories and hospitals.

The Biological Small Angle X-ray Scattering beamline will be optimised for measuring small angle scattering of surfactants, nanoparticles, polymers, lipids, proteins and other biological macromolecules in solution. BioSAXS combines combine a state-of-the-art high-flux small angle scattering beamline with specialised in-line protein purification and preparation techniques for high-throughput protein analysis.

Participants undertook IAEA training hosted by Macquarie University and ANSTO on use of radionuclides for soil and water investigations.
