A DOE lab, we develop science and technology innovations delivering powerful energy and national security solutions
About us
Argonne National Laboratory, one of the U.S. Department of Energy's national laboratories for science and engineering research, employs 3,400 employees, including 1,400 scientists and engineers, three-quarters of whom hold doctoral degrees. Argonne's annual operating budget of around $1 billion supports upwards of 200 research projects. Since 1990, Argonne has worked with more than 600 companies and numerous federal agencies and other organizations. Argonne's mission is to apply a unique mix of world-class science, engineering and user facilities to deliver innovative research and technologies. We create new knowledge that addresses the most important scientific and societal needs of our nation. We actively seek opportunities to work with industry to transfer our technologies to the marketplace through licensing, joint research and many other collaborative relationships. Argonne is managed by UChicago Argonne, LLC, for the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Science. We are located on 1,500 acres (6.9 sq. km) in southwest DuPage County, Illinois 25 miles (40 km) southwest of Chicago. The site is completely encircled by the beautiful Waterfall Glen Forest Preserve.

Eugene Swetin is making waves at the APS. Read more to dive into his journey, his research, and its impact - https://bit.ly/42sKpPY
Meet Eugene Swetin, the award-winning engineer who’s made a splash here at the Advanced Photon Source for the past 30 years and counting - https://lnkd.in/gxZFdeT3 As the Process Water Engineer at the APS, Swetin plays a key role in maintaining the delicate balance of water systems that support groundbreaking advancements. “Half a million gallons of water, flowing at approximately 20,000 gallons per minute through nearly 100 pumping systems, goes through virtually all APS accelerator components like blood through human organs,” said Swetin. Learn more about Swetin and how his work helps keep the APS flowing.

To chart new paths for nuclear energy, Argonne scientists are researching a technology that relies on a smaller, more local approach to efficient uranium and transuranic element recovery – https://bit.ly/43scKa9 The versatility of the scalable solution suggests that the U.S. could effectively recover valuable materials from sources like mining waste, coal fly ash, and discarded electronics that would typically go to landfills. This approach could enhance the U.S. manufacturing sector by expanding the use of safe, secure domestic sources of nuclear and other energy types.
