Opportunity: Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), operated by the Lawrence Livermore National Security (LLNS), LLC under contract no. DE-AC52-07NA27344 (Contract 44) with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), is offering the opportunity to enter into a licensing agreement to commercialize its methodology for enhancing photocatalytic degradation of organic contaminants in water through the incorporation of patterned plasmonic metal nanostructures with photocatalysts.Background: The goal in most water purification technologies is to completely remove contaminants from the feed water. That is, it is preferable not to just collect and concentrate the contaminants into a waste stream. In the case of organic contaminants, this can be acc...
