Without paint, Tesla must use technology and very careful handling to create and maintain a perfectly shiny, flat surface, says John Speer, who directs the Advanced Steel Processing and Products Research Center at the Colorado School of Mines

John Jechura, a Colorado School of Mines professor in the chemical and biological engineering department, described a dead leg as being like a garden hose that is turned off at the spigot and has the valve closed on the nozzle.

Morgan Bazilian, who has previously worked as a European Union negotiator during climate talks, told The Hill that Biden’s absence “does impact the tone or the optics of the event to a certain extent.”

"If we want to address the long-term problem, we really need to figure out how to remove the PFAS from the soil or prevent the chemical from leaching," said Christopher Higgins, civil and environmental engineering professor at the Colorado School of ....

Morgan Bazilian, director of the Payne Institute, said the energy landscape has changed substantially over the past 50 years. "The U.S. is now the largest producer of oil and gas, and has a long-established strategic petroleum reserve."

The 40-year partnership between Colorado School of Mines and the U.S. Geological Survey is reaching new heights.

Early next year, chemists and engineers led by the Golden university will start attacking those barrels with nine different potential methods for removing the contamination, in search of solutions for hundreds of tainted sites across the country.

A project headed by the Colorado School of Mines to test the best clean up methods for PFAS-contaminated materials is set to begin next summer on Schriever Space Force Base.

The largest Colorado award was $167 million for a new Energy and Minerals Research Center being built at the Colorado School of Mines.
