The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide federal funding to the University of Missouri – St. Louis (UMSL) to experimentally investigate the chemical interactions that allow for hydrogen storage in surface functionalized nanoporous carbons, in order to design and optimize new materials for fuel cell applications.
The proposed project involves lab-scale chemical engineering and materials science. This NEPA review only applies to activities associated with Budget Period 1 of the proposal, which is the only budget period being negotiated at this time. Additional NEPA review will be required if the project continues into subsequent budget periods.
